Ilkay Gundogan's 174 passes today was also a Premier League record for most successful passes in one game by one player. Congratulations, Ilkay!

that's the whole point of the pivot pass pass pass pass,it changes angles and creates space,doesn't matter where it goes as long as it finds its target ,when he passing back to the back 2 then the oppo has to go to the cbs leaving space ahead, thats why pep insists on ball playing cbs.Maybe 140 then.
its what peps pivots do
I really like him. Have a few reservations about how much he'll flourish with us though.
In the KdB/Silva role he often lacks the energy & stamina to press like those guys manage which makes him look lazy & easy to get past; obviously this can improve, but has to put in the work to nail one of those spots down.
In the pivot role he's, understandably, still a little cautious in the tackle, and again the stamina issue.
He's good in a few different positions, but currently, for me at least, a level below our current top guys in each position.
Hopefully doesn't succumb to become Mr. versatile & back-up man; and hopefully gains confidence in his body that can help him push on to reach the performances of our current midfield trio; he's got the ability.

Amazing today! Brilliant from Our man!
I understand that. However, many of the players, not just Gundogan, were passing between themselves today for nothing but shits and giggles so the records with regards to it are a bit meh just.that's the whole point of the pivot pass pass pass pass,it changes angles and creates space,doesn't matter where it goes as long as it finds its target ,when he passing back to the back 2 then the oppo has to go to the cbs leaving space ahead, thats why pep insists on ball playing cbs.
