Ilkay Gundogan

[Kinkys Left Foot]

Mr Whippy returns, the curse of those red cunts. The very definition of clutch. Fucking bring it on.

 

[oakiecokie]

I see you got a like from our resident Ray of sun doom and gloom; )

Hahah you beat me to it BMR. ;)

 

[Gremlin]

Don't get the people saying no thanks. If he had signed the two-year deal that we allegedly offered to him a year ago, everyone would be fine about him playing this season. Just pretend he did that and he's had a long holiday.

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

Envious of those there on Saturday. Imagine that noise when he’s brought onto the pitch?

 

[fulabeer]

We are so much stronger with him.
I couldn't believe he wanted to leave in the first place. It just didn't seem time yet.

He stabilised so many matches coming on as a sub.
If this is happening, he just might have something to prove.

 

[Leroy Leroy Leroy]

Hopefully there is also a future coaching role included in the deal

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

A one year deal on a free is a good news no brainer, and I can see him extending another year as a player/coach.

 

[BerkshireBlue]

Hopefully there is also a future coaching role included in the deal

100% that's why I'd like him back

 

[jollylescott]

A City legend returns. For those doomsayers, he was in the team of the season in La Liga. He created more chances than anyone else in La Liga (97) last season.

I’d give my right arm to be there on Saturday.

Welcome back Ilkay!!!!

There may well be but there are a few posters getting carried away with him being Peps replacement.

I think he was probably thinking he'd won everything with us and would be a good way of bowing out and trying something new.
But we all said at the time why was he going to an unstable club like Barcelona.

Maybe his wife was the main reason?

Me too. Will be in Venice for me and Mrs Prague's 10th wedding anniversary. Some lucky barsteward has bought my ticket on the exchange.

Carried away? I've already got a semi on at the thought of a Kompany Gundogan partnership. Could be a modern day version of Clough and Taylor.

I'd say she had 99.9999% input into the decision :)

 

[fulabeer]

I know this is fairly new news. But i swear i read an article last month where he said in an interview that he regretted leaving City, and hoped there was some path back. Cannot find it now.

 

[mrbelfry]

On what basis exactly?

A feeling in my bones

 

[Eric Hitchmough]

“Ilkay made the scousers cry.”

 

[Nevizade]

A feeling in my bones

Destiny
