Ilkay Gundogan - 2018/19 performances

[Rolee]

1)So when he starts a game his instructions will be to slow things down. The fact is when we play at walking pace we never seem to penetrate so unlikely he is being asked to following instructions.
2)He is slower than our other midfielders and does not track back like the other players do , occasionally yes, but not on a regular basis. An example was yesterday when he lost the ball he did not chase back, instead lifted his head in frustration and left the job to someone else.
3)Hmm , not thought of that one because amazingly other players are reluctant to pass it to someone who is not looking and tend to choose to pass the ball to someone else who is looking. By the time he has “ assessed” the situation the ball is 2 moves on.

1. Apologies, I was under the impression you were referring to yesterday's game

2. I'll take your word for it.

3. It's funny, for someone that doesn't want the ball he regularly finishes with more touches and passes than most others in the team

 

[Easy]

Quality penalty last night.

 

[Dax777]

Not sure how you can say that. He played very well and was immediately a lot more visible than Merlin who'd been invisible for half an hour. And then nailed the first penalty.

Yeah! You know, wasted sub. :)

 

[Scaring Europe to Death]

He's arguably been our most consistent player for over a Month, and certainly better than KDB and Silva, both of whom are living off last season's form.

 

[MCFCFanTX]

Our two most maligned players within this squad over the past few years are Gundo and Otamendi. Both will, arguably, be our two most important players the next few weeks with the injuries to Laporte (Stones too) and Dinho. Both have actually performed very well and have been good servants to the club. Hopefully fans get behind both because they will play a huge role in the remainder of this season.

 

[big gaz]

I Love the little German fucker but hey ho. Can take a pen thooooooo.

 

[Fame Monster]

In good form at the minute, played well again tonight.

 

[Goater=Legend]

Man of the match for me, apart from that ridiculous decision at the end

 

[Manchester_lalala]

Tidy performance tonight. He’s going to be key player in the next few weeks.

Man of the match for me, apart from that ridiculous decision at the end

Ditto.
