"It looks like Gundogan is going to be the man to take Manchester City to the title," Carragher told Sky Sports, per the BBC. "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."

Unfortunately, Gundogan could not complete the 90 minutes as he was taken off through injury.

Pep Guardiola provided an update on his fitness after the game.

“He told me it was tight. He is intelligent to say it, but we will see tomorrow," he said, per Manchester City's official website.

Gundogan has suffered from numerous injuries in his career. He's in the form of his life at the moment so hopefully he will be able to take to the field when City play Everton on Wednesday evening.
