The British team talk reported on the 25th (Korea time) 'Sky Sports Expert Jamie Redknapp expressed his concern about the old Manchester City star Ilkay Gündogan'
Manchester City was defeated 0-4 in the 12th round of the EPL in the 2024-2025 season at Eddie Hard Stadium in Manchester, England on the 25th. With this defeat, Manchester City, which experienced its first five consecutive losses since Pep Guardiola's regime, fell into a severe slump.
He also received a flurry of criticism against the players. Erling Holan with poor goal-scoring ability, frustrated Phil Foden, midfield that failed to fill Rodri's injury gap, and shaky defense could not find a player who would not be criticized.

Then "What Guin Doan did was basic things, but he didn't do it too well. He now seems to be struggling with this level of intensity"Guendoan may no longer be able to play at the EPL level.
Gündogan, who began to make his name known in Dortmund after passing through Bochum and Nuremberg, opened his prime at Dortmund and moved to Manchester City in 2016. As Guardiola's first recruit after taking office in Manchester City, he enjoyed a period of glory with tremendous performance and showed good performance as a captain. He helped achieve the treble in Manchester City and is a team legend with 320 games, including only his career games this season.
Ahead of the 2023-2024 season, Gündogan has chosen to challenge. He moved to Barcelona, his dream club, and chose his last challenge. Gündogan also continued to play in Barcelona and maintained his position. He played in 36 league games and started 33 of them. However, the situation has changed due to the appointment of Han Ji-flick this summer, and Gündogan chose to return to Manchester City instead of staying in Barcelona. Gündogan played in 16 official matches since his return. The offensive point is only one goal and one assist.
Along with Gündogan's sluggishness, harsh evaluations poured in for him. It is shabby to say that it is the performance of a player who is considered to remain a legend of Manchester City. If Gündogan fails to rebound along with Manchester City's sluggish performance, it will be difficult to avoid criticism from fans in his past performances.
