Stop worrying about where people fit in, that's Pep's job, and there's clearly a plan if he's coming.
We've already bought the winger FYI.
Tbf if you work on the Pep's 'let's find a space for Gundogan' theory, he's right.
Hopefully not, otherwise I really don't want him.

Too old, he's in decline, powers waning, and he's had a bad season from the two games I've watched. We don't need him and there must be fetuses available that we should have identified. Hang on, which thread is this?

I think people really overrate Pep's love of Gundogan. He's in the side because we had a problem, Silva couldn't run anymore or play every game and no one else does the job of constantly giving and receiving the ball 100 times a game to establish our possession in games.
@Prestwich_Blue said we had an arrangement to bring Aouar in last summer and if he had, I doubt Gundogan would have been anything more than the back up he's been for the previous 3 seasons.
Aouar-Rodri-KDB midfield, Gundogan backing up Rodri, Foden in the front 3 most of the time and Bernardo backing up KDB and Aouar unless he finds his POTY-nominee form.

He would immediately improve our midfield imo.
A game like tonight, where everything has pretty much gone wrong, is a very good test imo & he never let up.

I would like to agree & used to argue it myself, but his inclusion v Lyon was either tactical genius or a fucking favouritism pisstake.
Edit: Bernardo could be an absolute season changer if he got his shit together, if he's still here.
