Ilkay Gundogan - Done Deal

[Phil1]

Like I said, we would be stupid to not at least have the conversation.
That’s not wishful thinking, it’s competent management of our squad.

We absolutely do not need to spend money on a signing who isn't a project behind what we already have so gundogan absolutely is the right option for now.

 

[Blue and true]

They say never go back, but I'd give anything to see him in our shirt one last time, banging in a free kick top bins.

Let's get it done!

Gundo, just don't sign for the dippers ffs

 

[samuelyeboah]

I'm ambivalent because I was excited about Phil and Bernardo playing down the middle this season with Bobb and savio taking the wing roles. If we resign gundo I think it'll just push Phil/Bernie back on the wing.

Id prefer we sign a winger who can also deputise up top to deal with Bobb's injury.

I love gundo and he'd be an excellent addition, so it's pep's headache to play with the squad..

Lets hope Man City walks away if he demands are unrealistic...

Yep, we're renowned for caving in to unrealistic demands

 

[Andouble]

Would really be the perfect signing for this season. Allows us to see what Pep does with his contract, the results of the 115, and we can react with longer term midfield targets from there. No brainer.

 

[Antwerp City]

One. Last. Dance.

 

[Saxmundham Blue]

Not for me

A great player, but we have moved on.

 

[Chopper2115]

Would be really surprised if this doesn’t get done in the next few days, it’s a great move for both parties in terms of keeping Gundo and offering him options for his future in management of going to the US.
