47 | Phil Foden - 2025/26

I don’t think we can afford to put him in the team. He is currently so bad, that he’s not even worth taking a chance on. I can’t believe I am saying that about Phil but he is a major problem for us now.

Should have been hooked 15minutes earlier and that being generous, offering us nothing. Evertime he gets the ball his back is to goal
 
Christ knows what is going on. But he‘s a million miles off where we need him.
 
WTF has happened to him ?
Was in blistering form in the autumn
Now just a passenger
 
His heads not been in the game for the best part of two seasons now. Shame really, think we’ve seen the best of him, he looks like he’s lost the love for the game.

Cherki is what Foden thinks he is, some of the Passes Cherki was making with either foot at different angles threading that ball through.

Concerned is an understatement. No Mental (grit) developed since he broke through and that PFA Player of the year. Maybe we are being too harsh and it’s a physical problem like others today were saying but wow. Got the ball and did nothing, even when he receives it just feels like nothing is going to happen he picks up space in awkward positions. And doesn’t have the IQ to find the next pass from said awkward positions

Cherki is unbelievable and I think it’s had an effect on Foden. I know he was poor last season, but Foden was meant to be the main man, he isn’t and Cherki is. Cherki does everything that Phil can and more.
 
Outside of a seven week period he's been rubbish for 22 months.

I wouldn't be in any rush whatsoever to extend his contract. He doesn't create chances or score goals, so in what world do we build a team around him?

I thought he was appalling without the ball tonight. You don't even see that second goal at Sunday league.
 
Thought we were going to score, he loses the ball finishes up in our net. Think their second also related to him losing the ball. Sad nothing malicious but he's become a liability. Maybe a change of scenery would clear his head. Can't possibly give him a big new contract.
 
Come get the ball, pass straight back to player passed it to you, rinse and repeat... what's the fucking point?

Cherki gets the ball, turns to face opponents and scans options then move it on with attacking intent.

Phil brings fuck all to the team if he cant do his one trick... Whats the latest excuse for him? It was that he's been covering alot of ground(without getting stuck in) most recently.
 
He wasn't good, but I refuse to put the entire blame for the result on him; it was Pep who left him on until the 77th minute when he saw that he was contributing absolutely nothing, either with or without the ball.

Well I’m sorry to say to Phil he gotta man up and adapt and overcome or grim and bare it.

At 25 he isn’t a baby anymore he is a full fledged man. Boy hood city fan or not maybe he is too comfortable on that contract and in his home city with his boyhood club that he has won many trophies with. At this point he shouldn’t be starting, cup games and cameos.

Cherki has ego and arrogance to run a game, Phil looks like he passing it onto the next man to grab the game by scruff of neck.
 
Shouldn’t start another game this season and there should be a serious conversation with all parties around whether he should part ways in the summer. Incredibly sad that it’s come to this

Time to go Phil. The lad is a shadow of his former self. I'd go as far as to say he's finished at this level... he's shite, and by the looks on his face, he knows it.

It was nice while it lasted.

He has lost the plot, but so has Pep! Keeps on picking Haaland who has also lost the plot. We've got Marmoush, Reijnders, Doku and a few more fit and dying to play sat shining their arses on the bench. Teams move on but we haven't. With 80% possession, we manage a draw, just! No chance now of the league, might as well give it to that dirty fouling mob called Arse**l. Been a blue for over 70 years and I'm disgusted with the lack of fight and will to win.
