Ilkay Gundogan says every player in the Manchester City squad must keep the highest levels in training and during games as he reflected on the Blues' recent form.
Gundogan has been a key player this season, especially when Kevin De Bruyne was injured, but has seemingly fallen out of favour in the last month and has started just one of City's last six Premier League fixtures.
The German was an unused substitute at Newcastle before Christmas, before playing the full 90 minutes in the Boxing Day clash with Leicester. He was left on the bench again at Brentford as Pep Guardiola rotated over the Christmas week, but only played the last 28 minutes next time out at Arsenal. He started and scored in the FA Cup win at Swindon, before returning to the bench against Chelsea at the weekend.
