Manchester City look to be coasting towards the Premier League title as things stand, and Ilkay Gundogan is playing a key role.
City demolished Tottenham Hotspur 3-0 on Saturday evening, with Rodri converting from the penalty spot after Gundogan had been fouled by Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg.
Gundogan then fired the second underneath Hugo Lloris, before racing onto a long pass from Ederson, bamboozling Davinson Sanchez and hitting the third.
The German is in sensational form right now, smashing eight goals in his last eight Premier League outings, driving City into top spot.
Gundogan, 30, has hit double figures for league goals in a season for the first time in his entire career, meaning he truly is in the form of his life.
Gundogan has really stepped up with Kevin De Bruyne out injured, and has made himself virtually undroppable for Pep Guardiola right now.
On Saturday night, pundit Jamie Carragher told Sky Sports (6:55pm) that he thinks Gundogan will now be the PFA Player of the Year, having predicted earlier this month that teammate Ruben Dias will win the award.
Carragher branded Gundogan a ‘revelation’ and a ‘joy to watch’, heaping praise on the former Borussia Dortmund man as he makes himself a City hero.
“It looks like Gundogan is going to be the man to take Manchester City to the title,” said Carragher. “What a season he is having. I think he is going to be PFA Player of the Year. He has been a revelation, a joy to watch,” he added.
