Why De Bruyne has the potential to be considered better than Kaka[A THREAD]:

(likes and rts appreciated)
First of all lets see the major trophies won by each:
Kaka: 2x domestic league,1x UCL,1x World Cup

KDB:2x domestic league

So we see KDB is just 1 UCL away from matching his legacy.But a World Cup will be really hard as Belgium don't have quality and depth like Brazil always do
KDB was a part of the City team that achieved 100 points for first time in English football and the one which did a domestic quadraple the next season for the first time in English football.
Kaka wasn't part of any record breaking domestic squads which did a "first" something
Stats in European top 5 league +respective domestic cups+UCL:

Kaka 426 apps
133 goals
124 assists
257 G+A in 426 apps

KDB 361 apps
90 goals
152 assists
242 G+A in 361 apps

KDB of course has a better rate than Kaka im G/A and is likely to beat Kaka's tally easily
Kaka played as an AM and a second striker mostly,and sometimes he was played as a winger too.
While De Bruyne started his career as a CM and then went onto play AM . He's equally adept in both the postions
According to the above information in last 2 tweets Kaka being the more attacking player should have a better G/A per 90 rate ,but that's not the case, KDB has the better rate even though he plays deeper which really proves his excellence
Kaka has won one Ballon d'or while KDB hasn't. KDB just has to win an UCL or World Cup/Euro to have a shot at the Ballon d'or. Of course this season De Bruyne was a major shout for Ballon d'or,had City won the UCL he'd have won it.
And don't forget KDB STILL HAS 6-7 YEARS LEFT!!!
