De Braune's kicking style is famous for his stream of consciousness and footwork. His 45-degree oblique footwork is very fixed, and his judgment of space before catching the ball is top-notch. He is a midfielder, but he has all the skills to be competent in many positions. For most of this season, De Blaunet played the right midfield position in the 4-3-3 formation, and his partners were midfielder Fernandinho and left midfielder Silva or Gundogan.
