He cops it because we have top football analysers and coaches gracing us with their insightful knowledge on here week in, week outWhenever the team plays poorly, Gundogan is a target. He is a top player but we lose as a team, not because of one. Nobody had a good game at the weekend; tonight, everyone played well.
We played 442 you didn't notice ?As an 8 though. Let's not forget the position he played. He played as an 8.
It turns out he can play as an 8 after all. And we can be creative and win while he's there.
Shocker! Who'd have thought a German international midfielder can succeed playing in midfield.
I think last night's midfield might be our best midfield in European games, it just seems to have the best balance and suits the strengths of all 3. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw it a lot, which is great news for Gundogan.
