Kovacic started every game this season and mostly the whole 90 minutes. His injury is predictable considering he was the one of the only ones who did try to win the games in the team.No player should be getting injured in an international friendly.
Personally think another needless and pointless buy from the club.
If you think he is useless his injury doesn’t matter to the team. He cost the club maybe $20M talking about transfer fee. He paid it back well already and you can sell him with the same price.

The team is not only missing Rodri but also Kovacic which was obvious from today’s draw.
I was writing about it.
Since Rodri was injured, playing Gundogan anywhere except N6 was a huge mistake.
Kovacic shouldn't have played so many games and his energy should have been saved, cause we all knew he wasn't going to keep playing 3 games per week and stay uninjured.
Gundo's only job should have been to be rotated with Kova and that's all, he had nothing to do in N8 position, where we have players like Bernie, Matheus, Macatee, Foden, KDB and even Grealish or Rico if needed. But only two players can play n6 - Kova and Gundo. That's why..
Now we have to play 34 years old Gundo every 3 days and suffer.
Bad planning and management here.
