8 | Ilkay Gundogan - 2022/23

No worse than Kev and Foden.

No worse than Kev and Foden.

No worse than anyone other than the MOTM,Bernie.

No worse than Kev and Foden.

I actually thought he was the best player outside of Bernado.

His movement of the ball and decisions on it were quicker than most.

Generally, Stones and Cancelo held on to the ball too long and Akanji and Laporte weren't particularly positive with their passing. Kev was off and Foden was at the World Cup barring his goal.

Haaland was starved and his few touches were great.

Ederson by a mile, Bernado Gundo and Haaland average. And everyone else was crap. With Stones being the crappiest.

Time to go imho.

Doesn’t get in our best 11.

When he plays we push our only engine out wide

 

[argyle]

When he plays our midfield moves at a snails pace.

The old cliches about Gundogan are getting reactivated :) 1-2 losses in December/early January and Rodri will be questioned too.

More seriously, Gundo and KDB are on the wrong side of 30. This may mean that we are going to see more average performances from them. If Bernie moves in the summer, we may need two new mids, and not just one (say, Bellingham).

Or just finally move Foden back to the middle but it’ll be interesting what the club do about that position as time goes by.

Moving Bernardo out his best position to fit Gundo in is a problem. Gundo shouldn’t be starting if everyone is fit. But this season Pep seems to be doing it more than he has previously. Maybe it’s something to do with the captaincy.

That's an option, but if both Gundo and Bernie leave, we'll need 2 new mids, imo.

Just watched the winning goal from Saturday for the first time since leaving the stadium & had no idea how easily Gundogan let Toney go, its actually embarrassing.
