The brutal data of Gündogan that plants him like the best generator of the world

GÜNDOGAN, THE PLAYER WHO CREATES THE MOST CHANCES

Ílkay Gündogan Has been the silent hero of the FC Barcelona. It does not appear in the ‘photo’ as the best of each party of the blaugrana, but yes like the footballer that causes that the team work from the centre of the field. In this 2024 has showed his more participatory and influential version in zone of three chambers, to the point to turn into the fútbolista with more assistances (10) of the staff. To this, add him his five targets.

It is not casualidad that it was the most used player by Xavi Hernández and that grieve have had rest in these last months. It arrived from the Manchester City in a big state of form, after signing the triplete, and in the Barça has given continuity to his magic. It is the ‘tool’ that never fails and the attendant to put the calm in the middle of the chaos that usually vivien the Catalans.

Gündogan, always present in the attack culé

The feeling is that Gündogan always is involved in the attacks and the statistical confirm it. The registers of ‘Opt Stats’ confirm that the midfield player of 33 years is the first footballer in what it goes of the season 2023/2024 that arrives to the 100 occasions created between all the competitions, taking in account the five big Leagues of Europe.

The team usually does not finish taking advantage of what the Teutonic generates, but his influence is constant. Especially since Xavi ‘changed’ the diagram of the Barça so that Andreas Christensen play in a more advanced position, like pivote, the presence of Gündogan in zone of three chambers has been more constant because it has freed of the defensive tasks and has opportunity to appear more in rival field.

Gündogan, silent leader

In a season in which Gavi said ‘goodbye’ very soon by the complete break of the ligament crossed previous of the right knee that suffered in November and the irregularity that, of some way, has been having a Pedri that has not been able to take the reins, definitively, of the centre of the field of the Barça, Gündogan has appeared like the leader of the team from the medullary and a piece infravalorada in the staff. In silence does a lot of noise.
