Fair point, his best position is the 6. If Rodri comes then he isn't as needed. I'd suppose he'd simply become the transition from Dave to Phil. As hell start the most games at the 8 outside of Kev. With Dave and Phil getting fewer. Dave more earlier on and Phil more towards the end of the season.

I recognize that my response wasn't clear. IYes thank you for pointing out something I myself pointed out.
So it should have read "Yeah, that was 3 months ago." Implying that three months was a long enough time for opinions, conditions and situations to change.

I think Phil Foden is already better than Gundogan for the advanced midfield role. If these rumours are true then I expect Ilkay knows it too.
But then Silva is getting older and there are no guarantees regarding KDBs fitness.I think Phil Foden is already better than Gundogan for the advanced midfield role. If these rumours are true then I expect Ilkay knows it too.

Wow.
Maybe Gundogan and David will be kindly allowed the odd PL home match vs Watford or Burnley.
I disagree. I saw Foden struggle to handle the pressure late in the season.as an 8. He has potential, but he isn't better just yet. He very well might achieve that over this coming season. But he simply isn't yetI think Phil Foden is already better than Gundogan for the advanced midfield role. If these rumours are true then I expect Ilkay knows it too.

He did ok in the second Spurs home game, to be fair. Probably our hardest game of the last 10 in the league and he scored the winner.

I don’t disagree with your comments about Club v Country. However I don’t necessarily agree about Zinny and the midfield role. If we re-sign Angelino it means we have three left backs which probably means either Mendy is gone or Zinny is moving into the midfield. I can’t I imagine the Club are ready to give up on Mendy yet and we know Zinny has the game to be able to pull off the DM role. I can definitely see that happening.I'm doubtful he will play midfield at all given the players we have there next season. Plus playing well for national team can mean nothing. Aguero been useless for ARG and same for sterling for ENG until recently, but they are vital players for city. Club and NT performance don't correlate
