He played for the club for this one season, mainly as midfielder, and during this time Gürtler played at least 17 games for Basel scoring five goals. He scored five goals during the friendly games. His first goal was on 5 December 1909 in the away game against La Chaux-de-Fonds as Basel won 6–3.[2] Five of these games were in the Nationalliga A, two in the Anglo Cup and ten were friendly games.[3] He probably played more games but the documentation is not available.[note 09–10 1]
