#8 | Ilkay Gündoğan - 2020/21 Performances

[Akira]

last 11 league games, 9 goals, 1 assist, 9 tackles, 9 interceptions, Shots: 27, On Target: 13, Shot conversion rate: 32% (Haaland - 27%), On target conversion rate: 69.2% (Haaland - 53.8%), 22 key passes, dispossessed: 6 times, 680 passes, pass completion: 90.5%.

become the player I always wanted him to be, hope this peak lasts a long time.

9 in 11 games, jeezus. If he wasn't so pivotal in our midfield, I reckon Pep would favor him in the false 9 role.

He's already in it! Such a fluid system.

That's patently wrong. Gundogan was superb in the run-in back in 18/19 when Fernandinho got injured in February and struggled to stay fit and to regain form till the end of the season. Actually, we looked better and more solid with Gundogan than with Fernandinho. Gundogan played a huge role in winning the title and the domestic treble.

I worry that Pep doesn't rotate Gundogan enough and he may lose form. But now that Kevin is injured Pep hasn't much choice.

That is your view mine was he was awful as a DM/ box to box and everybody else had to cover him, even David Silva defended better he certainly ran more. i said at the time, as did many others ` I never want to see Silva Gundogan and Bernardo in the same team again` because there was nobody to do the leg work,
And i will say now leave him up front where he makes an impact, a huge impact at the moment.

Ilkay Gundogan on retiring at #ManCity: "I must honestly say that I can imagine that happening. The way they work here, not only athletically but also in all areas around it, is something I have never seen before in my career..."

Ilkay Gundogan: "I feel like the club is more than just the football itself, and it's just a nice feeling to be a part of this family." [via

Fingers crossed he never will find this thread, though.

The most likely to become a great Manager.

Might have been a wonderful player to watch on channel 4 on a Sunday afternoon back in the 90s. Not in the modern game.

Was football on channel 4
