GÜNDOGAN IS PLAYING EVERYTHING
The 'danger' of Barça with Ílkay Gündogan
FC Barcelona has to be very attentive with the number of minutes that its players are adding. Ílkay Gündogan, who has made 15 consecutive starts between the Barça club and the German national team
It is necessary to retreat until 16 September to find the last party in which Ílkay Gündogan was not to title. It was against the Real Betis (5-0), after a stop of selections in which it had suffered annoyances. Since, it has added 15 parties in which it has formed part of the XI initial... And it has played the ninety minutes. It is one of the footballers that less rests, so much with the FC Barcelona as with the selection of Germany.
The footballer of 33 years has added 1.350 minutes (without explaining the injury times) in little more than two months. It has not rested any weekend and in the Ciuad Condal have to begin to take note to avoid that the situation go out of control and the Teutonic finish in the infirmary. To the rhythm that is keeping, would not be a surprise to average term.
They have been eight parties in LaLiga (720', with a goal and an assistance), four in Champions League (360' with two assistances) and three titularities with Germany in friendly parties (270' and a goal) waiting for the crash against Austria, also without transcendence, against Austria this Tuesday from the 20:45 hours (8:45 pm, CET). Everything seems to indicate to that it will be headline, put since it has turned into the captain of the selection has assumed a lot of more chevrons.
And after the stop of selections?
The injury of Gavi has been a called of attention for the FC Barcelona, because they have finished to understand that the players are very exposed and that, between more minutes add no rest, are greater the possibilities of an injury. No only a so big like the one of the midfield player sevillano, but the wears and physical annoyances become the norm with the rhythm that are living.
They are 'victims' of the calendar, that has not given grantings, but in front of this situation Xavi Hernández will have to take note and bet by rotar, more, to his players. It is true that splits with disadvantage, because now only will have Oriol Romeu, Pedri González, Fermín López, Gündogan and when it go back Sergi Roberto of his injury, but also will have to find the formula so that the ex of the Manchester City do not see 'forced' to play it everything. Or at least it can have more rest.
