Gundogan: 'We've lost two players that bring us qualities others don't'

"We've lost two players [De Jong and Pedri] who bring us qualities on the pitch that other players don't bring," Ilkay Gundogan told LaLigaTV after the 0-0 draw against Athletic Club.

"But we are Barca and we have the responsibility to win with whoever is on the pitch," the German also said.

As usual, Gundo is being honest in his post-match interviews. He knows it's almost impossible to replace Pedri and Frenkie de Jong without losing quality.

The two midfielders picked up injuries in the first half against Bilbao. De Jong is expected to miss four-five weeks while Pedri should only be available in May.
