19 | Ilkay Gundogan - 2024/25

[balotelli's back pocket]

How he stayed on the pitch for 90 minutes I don't know. At times, really smooth. But the amount of times he was robbed of possession or just totally bypassed in midfield was killing us.

Hopefully he gets back up to speed soon.

Judging by the first two comments, I felt like I was watching a different game. I thought he was miles off the mark. Brentford's midfield was going past him like he wasn't there.

I'd agree with that.

At this point Gundo needs to be playing in a City side that has 70% possession. Most weeks we will and he will be fine. He can’t play when games become basketball games like the 1st half was.

Average performance.

Certainly better last 30 mins than in the rest of the game. Invisible before that.

He has played a really easy pace for a season , just needs to get retuned with the team

He just needs to get upto speed. Same with Jonny boy and Kyle. They all got vital minutes in their legs and that can only be a good thing.

Amen

Trust it will come back but got to find a higher gear than that, expected him to be pulled for bernardo. Shown glimpses but not often enough, won't have many tougher games than that in fairness.

Thought he really struggled to match the pace of the game today. Hope that's a one-off.
