People getting on Gundogan's back, yet he's been far more involved than Bernardo for me. Wasted a great counter opportunity with a poor pass, but at least showing for it. Sometimes doing nothing seems to get you a free pass.
Not to jump on him more, but a lot of that is Ilkay not playing well. He is supposed to be playing a modified version of David or Kevin’s role and it really is not working out for him.I won’t be slagging you off, because that’s exactly the problem. Our midfield is non existant.
Think Mahrez has been good, always got them retreating towards the penalty area, Sterling too.
Would like to see Bernardo get a little close to Mahrez and Walker and create some triangles.
Fernandinho is a one-man team. Incredible.
Sterling has carried on if not improved his form from last year, aguero looks sharp and we have stones back to his best and looks solid along with Laporte. Dinho never misses a beat. Lots of positives with so little pre season.
Aguero's been interesting. He's playing with far more intelligence than he used to. I still think he's adapting to the role from his older pre-Guardiola style, but it's exciting.

This is leaving Fernandinho, Bernardo, Eric, and John with the responsibility to constantly recognise and plug those holes, in turn creating more space for Arsenal if they see it.
