I was happy as I saw this objective card, since I don't play very much nowadays and don't wanna invest points or trade much. I don't understand the hate for the card, because the only downside is the Stamina imo and as I remember, his cards are always different in a good way (for me). I'm not a big fan of this meta-talk, but I'm also more like a "oldschool UT" player (began 2011 for the first time, then I played from 2014-2018 and stopped until this year) and I want to have fun primary.
I use Gundogan as a right CM, like you can see in my squad linked and he is doing very well. His main job in my team is to create chances for the two strikers and the cam but also help out in the defense when needed, so he isn't a goal scorer or assistmaker there. At all, he was very solid for me and since its a free card, I can't complain. Well rounded imo.
