Phil Foden wins FWA footballer & PL player of the year.

He doesn’t start enough games.

His career’s going nowhere warming the bench at City

He’ll get a much better football education by moving somewhere else and playing regularly

These same clowns who are shamelessly voting for him now were trotting out all that nonsense week in week out for years
The season on loan at Preston made him the player he is today
 
Congratulations Phil, fully deserved!
He's one of our own!

Congratulations to Bunny Shaw also, a brilliant striker!
 
Clearly a deserved award. Stand out player in the league, no doubt.

I'm sure Pep will keep Phil grounded, though. He still has so much potential to realise.

Thinking of the Real Madrid games: Phil popped up at one vital moment (proving that he has the cojones for the big stages), but was absent for large parts of both legs.

He's only 23. For context, we signed David Silva and Aguero when they were respectively that age. He's already achieved much of what they did.

But his next step is to become an omnipresent influence on every match he plays. He has already demonstrated an ability to "grab games by the scruff of the neck." But now? He needs to step up in more of the big games in a bigger manner.

When he does that, he will win Ballon D'Ors, possibly even a World Cup medal or two. Such is his talent.

FWA POTY at 23 years old is a huge achievement. And deserved. But Phil can't rest on his laurels. His ceiling is too high.
 
Well done Phil. Much deserved.
Not read the full thread but, despite the fact that we aren't really here, our players have won it 4 times in the last 6 years:
Sterling, Diaz, Haaland and now Foden.
Happy days!
