Gundogan questions Barcelona teammates' attitude after Clasico defeat

Barcelona lost in 'El Clasico' against Real Madrid, and the first doubts appeared. Ilkay Gundogan, one of the signings of the current season, hit out at his teammates.

The former Manchester City player, who won everything under Pep Guardiola, criticised the squad's lack of ambition and attitude in the dressing room after losing to Real Madrid.

"I want to be honest, but without going too far because I don't want to say something I shouldn't. I come from the dressing room and obviously the people were disappointed, but after such an important game and an unfair result, I would like to see more anger and disappointment. And that's part of the problem," the German explained to La Liga's microphones.

The midfielder said that "there has to be more emotion, especially when you lose. You know you can do better in certain situations and you don't react, and this transfers to the pitch at the end of the day". "We need to make huge step or Real Madrid or Girona is going to run away," he added.

"I didn't come here to lose these types of games or let a gap be created [at the top of the table]," concluded the German midfielder.
