Ilkay Gundogan - Done Deal

I hope both parties don't come to regret this.
I love Gundo but he's taken 12 months playing in a far less physical league and he did it for a reason.
Great to have him on board to help out younger players, and work on his coaching, but his minutes may be lower than some on here anticipate.
He did it for a few reasons:-

2 year contract instead of the 1 we allegedly offered

Wanted a different challenge and culture, as did his Mrs - some might even say that Barcelona is a nicer city than Manchester

He just played for one of the best countries in the Euros

He was in the La Liga team of the season

We don’t need him to play every game, 90 minutes - but you don’t think he could change a game?

He is an incredible character, apparently well like by everyone in the squad and on the staff

No transfer fee

He adds to a thin squad, even more strained by the injury to Bobb

He can play defensive mid, attacking mid, false 9


It’s a bit of a what did the Romans do for us scenario for me
