Calendar of FC Barcelona

İlkay Gündoğan Has converted , to day of today, in one of the key names of the FC Barcelona. It stands out so much by his regularity, being the player that more minutes has contested up to now in this season with the Barcelona T-shirt (3.821), as by all the provision that offers to the picture culé in the terrain of game.

His innate quality turns it into an able player to be differential in the medullary zone, organise the game like mediocentro or midfield player more advanced, as well as in the last third of the field, where shows sufficient creativity and class to give the last pass (at present is the leader in assistances of the Barça with 12) or to define by himself same the played, showing a remarkable capacity to confine in the rival area arriving from the second line.

It does not leave to be anecdótico that, in a period in which the big stars of the international football arrive to other groups to prices exorbitantes, a player with these qualities have arrived to the FC Barcelona to cost zero.

Guardiola Misses to Gündogan in the Manchester City

The combined mancuniano bid incesantemente to attain renew to the Portuguese player and desactivar the interest of other clubs.

Under this premise, the exentrenador of the FC Barcelona, the one who is admirer of the style and form of game of the exjugador of the Borussia Dortmund, one of his first incorporations to the start of his adventure in the Manchester City, has not found in this period to a player that can offer similar conditions in the medullary zone. Neither Mateo Kovacic neither Matheus Nunes, players of another profile, have filled these spaces in the centre of the field, in spite of being the reinforcements that the 'Sky Blues' brought in the past market of summer to strengthen his medullary zone.

No only this, further of his performance in the field, the English have lost to a leader in the changing room. Gündoğan, with his hierarchy, was used to to resolve parties when the men of attack did not answer. This responsibility, in the centre of the field, shared it with Kevin Of Bruyne, but now that the midfield player germano has left , recae only in the Belgian, the one who has fulfilled with solvency, but all this did not do more than leaving in clear that have to 'Gündo' in the team did that all these works went much simpler.
