  1. I think Gundogan was not given enough recognition for helping City win 2021/22 premier league title in the last minutes of the game.They still talk about Aguero’s last minute strikes and had his statue erected but Gundogan’s feat is swept under the carpet just like that.

  2. Ilkay, you need a proper meat and potato pie or a good steak pudding chips and gravy mate. That'll keep you on the blue side of Manchester!
