Manchester City

Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gündogan in conversation with TNT Sports: “IIt’s very disappointing. We had the chance to score a few goals, but at the moment it feels like every attack we concede is just dangerous.

“I don’t know, I sometimes have the feeling that we are a bit careless in duels. Instead of playing simply, we complicate things and we missed the right time to release the ball. Just lose the ball and give them counterattacks.”

“We are designed to keep the ball, keep the ball, be strong, if you can’t do something, you can’t lose it. It’s not working for us at the moment.”

On the subject of trust: “It’s a big part of it and of course it’s a mental problem too. You can see that. We sometimes have an action where we miss the ball, lose a duel and then we see that we immediately fall, lose the rhythm, they are able to break our rhythm with the simplest things. You don’t even have to do much.

“You have to do the simple things as well as possible. Work hard again, that’s how you get the confidence back, even in the game, when you miss something, by doing small and simple things, you get the confidence back, the moment we are always doing the wrong things .

“I feel like we know exactly what’s wrong. If you look at most of the games today, we actually didn’t play badly, created chances, only missed one goal. In games like this, once you give away a chance, it’s not easy to get back on your feet.

“We know what’s going wrong, it’s just a matter of finding the switch to turn things around because even if we don’t get results it doesn’t feel like we’re far from it.”

“As long as we don’t find that click, it’s going to be tough. The only thing we can do at the moment is for each individual player to question themselves to do better, how the player can individually sacrifice more to contribute to the team so that together we can get back on track can make way.
