Phil Foden - contract situation

[oldius]

Why would he want to sign to sit on the bench for 6 years?

Wel probs loan him to Preston for a year or 2

Is this the sluggo Custis?
Even when Phil was just 18 Custis and no doubt others were already making sly comments.

Loving this comment on there.....

Foden is still a bit lightweight, he needs going out on a season long loan to Doncaster Rovers or Scunthorpe to toughen him up.

Great news, but why are we paying him half the money we are paying Raheem Stirling?

I agree - he never has mud on his shorts.

Because he's 21 and building his career. It is an 'advantage' to bring players through from a financial perspective but he will be on 500k a week at the end of the new contract I bet.

yes I understand that, I just don't necessarily agree with it.
