Manchester City fans are confident of an FA Cup final win after seeing the starting XI for Saturday's game.
Ilkay Gundogan underlines the edge Man City have in Premier League title race
14.05.2023 - 16:35 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Ilkay Gundogan feels Manchester City are coping just fine with the pressure of another Premier League title race.
Pep Guardiola's side extended their winning run in the top flight to 11 games with Sunday's 3-0 victory over Everton. It was Gundogan who scored goals one and three at Goodison Park - a delightful solo effort to break the deadlock, before a perfectly clipped second-half free-kick.
City's triumph took them on to 85 points with three games left to play against Chelsea, Brighton and Brentford. With every City victory, Arsenal's hopes of lifting the title are dented. And Gundogan feels he and his team mates are showing vital experience at the crunch stage of the campaign.

"I think we have a very experienced team," he said. "It’s not really an unusual situation to us, competing for the last few games of the season with someone else. The margins for mistakes is very slim, we know that.
"And I think [the fact] that we were able to live these moments already in the past helps us a lot. Sometimes it’s about staying calm and trusting in your abilities, even though it was tough today in the first half. That is exactly what we have done."
On his first goal, Gundogan added: "I felt that I was free because both of the centre backs were focused on Erling. I saw the space, but the ball was a little bit behind my run - so I had to adjust and somehow I was able to take a touch. I just tried my luck and it worked out perfectly."
