19 | Ilkay Gundogan - 2024/25

[Vienna_70]

In the first half he was, the second half much better obviously because the team improved a lot.

Than when he left, a year ago?

Don’t be ridiculous.

Faster than in Spain?

Maybe. And that’s perhaps why he’s taking a little time to get back up to speed.

But Ilkay is such a classy, intelligent man that it will be no problem for him.

I have a lot of faith in Mr Whippy to score important goals for us at times that matter.

 

[Harlaching Sky Blue]

Manager Ranieri- Cagliari
Manager Moyes- West Ham

Who can forget Rockin Ray Ranson having a blues swansong early 90s!

Not to mention Lord Kenneth of Clements

 

[1Basti]

next time he will score but his anticipation for dangerous moments/situation is still intact

Exactly he makes the runs that only he can.

 

[Brewster's millions]

Looks like he needs a couple of games to get fully up to speed, and had he had those he would have taken one of those chances tonight.

Will score some important goals for us this season.

 

[ninjamonkey]

Not there yet but at least he showed the desire to be a difference maker, a quality many in the side lack and something we'll be thankful of as the season progresses.

 

[MCFCFanTX]

A threat in the box. Bad luck today but he and the team will be fine.

 

[Jonas.shaffer]

It's still early, but he's looked like a player for whom Barca was fine with using their shameful media barrage to force a player out.

I really don't know why McAtee/Nunes couldn't have come on for him. Bernardo, too.

 

[Damien10]

Some classy touches, but I don’t think he should have made way earlier in the game. But then I guess he has. A knack of arriving and scoring important goals.

 

[EdersonsSmiley]

He's not showed anything yet but he was always better in the second half of the season.

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

He’s class and will be a big part of our season, however I think he slows us down in the middle.

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

We didn't bring him in to be our main creative force, just happened that Kevin was missing today and Phil not ready to start.

 

[Blu1]

Playing him too much already

 

[chris85mcfc]

Completely lost as to why he wasn't on the edge of the box trying to dictate the attacks

I honestly thought I was going insane watching him stood in the box, whilst our arguably worst ball playing defenders were trying to orchestrate attacks

This.

 

[M Gaudino]

he looks lost at the moment

Yeah. He should have been right where Kovacic was.

 

[goatfeeder100]

He's not quite there yet. But I've no doubts he will be the Gundo we knew and loved by the business end of the season when we'll really need him. I just hope he's not overplayed between now and then so hoping we don't suffer to many injuries in midfield.

Watching Akanji, Dias and Walker doing thag all second half was just infuriating. Kovacic too.
