Man City should cash back on the 4/10 dud who was worse than Gundogan

Manchester CityThe difficult form continued as they were beaten 2-0 in Turin by Juventus in the sixth Champions League game on Wednesday night.

Cityzen has it all won one of the last ten matches in all competitions and have lost two of their last three games in Europe, drawing 3-3 after being 3-0 down against Feyenoord in the middle.

Goals from Serbian international Dusan Vlahovic and Leeds United loanee Weston McKennie in the second half secured all three points for Thiago Motta’s side on the night.

One player who did not perform well for Cityzens on the night was midfielder Ilkay Gundogan, who struggled to make a big impact in the middle of the park.

Ilkay Gundogan’s performance in numbers

The German was selected ahead of Phil Foden, James McAtee, Matheus Nunes, and Mateo Kovacic from the start. Pep Guardiola.

Gundogan was in the team to advance and cut in from the middle, but he failed to damage the Juventus defense with his passing or running into the box.

As you can see in the table above, the summer signing from Barcelona completed 95% of his attempts but failed to create a single chance for his teammates, showing that he lacked the ability to convince the team.

Kyle Walker, meanwhile, was worse than Gundogan and showed why his time at City should be over and Guardiola should pay him in January, or next summer.

Why Kyle Walker should be traded

The experienced full-back made a disappointing appearance for the Cityzens and was given a chance to play 4/10 by The Expresswho complained about his involvement in the first goal and his lack of quality in the box.

Walker failed and four of his five long runs and missed the target with all of his attempted runs, which shows that his last ball did a lot of damage.

The England international was also too late to block Kenan Yildiz from a deflection down the left, and was too late to try to stop the winger from putting in a cross, which was converted by Vlahovic.

He then failed to track down the defense in the box to tackle a cross for the second goal, as Ruben Dias and Josko Gvardiol were brought on and Walker didn’t get in to block the middle of the box, which meant McKennie went inside. between Guardiola and Walker.

His form in the Premier League also left a lot to be desired, as did the English flop he made zero zero and he has zero assists in 12 games, while winning only 2.8 duels in the games he has not taken.

Aged 34, now could be the perfect time for City to move on from their long-term centre-back, whose strength appears to be waning after a poor performance in the defeat to Juventus.

Guardiola has a big decision to make in January, or if he waits until the summer, and Walker’s exit would be good for all involved.
