Was Gundogan playing today?
depends if you you mean officially
Was Gundogan playing today?
They didn’t have to create anything because Walker created two chances for them in the first half, Otamendi created a chance for them in the first half and Rodri created both goals for them.Full on BM melt down, supercharged by the nightmare thought of dippers winning the league. Sounds reasonable.
Wolves created almost nothing, didn't have to, simple hoof created two on two and one on one every time we gifted them the ball. A feature of our team has been the amount of options the ball carrier normally has, today that never happened, which affected the "engine room" the most severely. Why it happened wont be explained by a few lines on a forum, by steaming pissed-off fans itching to join the lynch-mob. From having the best team spirit of any past city team, to a bunch of strangers with no cohesion, has no "usual suspects" to scape-goat, though the mob has decided it's Pep's "stubbornness, favouritism, lack of ability, and reluctance to sign replacements," etc. That was dire today, players looking a shadow of themselves, instead of our "keep-ball" that wears down the oppo, we looked incapable of stringing passes together for any meaningful length of time, as fans we arent used to seeing our team be so "average" (to be kind) not only no cherry, not even any cake. Wolves should have scored five, City hit the bar from a free-kick, nuff said.
Good points.
But I think Gundos performance is directly linked to the non-performance of the front 3, as you've described.
Our pressing was non-existent too. All in all not enough energy today.
Wolves deserved a 0-0 not a win, we have served their goals on a silver plate. Terrible mistakes.

We created more good opportunities for Wolves than we did for ourselves!
