High praise yet again for the Germany international of Turkish origin.
Gundogan is getting his self-belief back isn’t he? Those nagging doubts disappearing. He’s quality.

City’s depth is otherworldly!
United’s backup to Pogba is Herrera, while City’s is Gundogan. He’d start for any top side in the Premier league. That’s the difference between City & the rest.

Superb from Gundogan and composed from Bernardo. Not bad reserves

Ilkay Gundogan is one of the best midfielders in the world and can barely get into the Manchester City starting line-up. His mazy run and assist for Bernardo Silva was a reminder of his talent and the depth #MCFC have. #LEIMCI pic.twitter.com/yjJhc5leBg
