Nemanja Matic v Ilkay Gundogan
Nemanja Matic
Positioning
8
Very good positional sense, which is needed as he lacks mobility.
Passing
8
A very good passer of the ball, though he is not passing it as well as normal so far this season.
Cynicism
8
Willing to take the card when needed, but it is not his first thought, he will use cynicism when needed.
Shooting
8
Has a great shot on him but he very rarely gets forward far enough to get within range to use it.
Movement
7
Lacks mobility and tends to just sit rather than looking to move to receive the ball.

Ilkay Gundogan
Positioning
8
Has excellent positional sense, though he can be caught too far forward sometimes.
Passing
9
His biggest asset is his passing and range of passing. He can play the 'quarterback' role really well.
Cynicism
7
Is not averse to the cynical foul, but it is a last resort to him.
Shooting
7
While his shooting is excellent, he does not use it enough.
Movement
7
He has really good movement and loves to get involved higher up the pitch.
Ilkay Gundogan
