47 | Phil Foden - 2025/26

Love seeing him in the middle and dropping deep at times. He was born to play there.
Yes. He’s a 10 with a touch of 8. He is the keeper of the game plan. Tuchel has him as 9.5/10 which imho is not right. The fact that he scores goals does not make him a fox in the box. He scores mainly from outside the area.
 
Already 9th on the All Time Goal Scorers list (with a great chance of finishing 2nd) and If he plays in the next two games, then he'll be on 340 and halfway to Alan Oakes' All Time Appearances Record..

That's absolutely phenomenal especially as we still can't agree over his overall status or even his best position

His best position is 10.
No, 9th is, that's how numbers work.
 
2 greater headers... he has good technique.

Him and Cherki are making a very strong duo.
Foden’s heading technique is incredible.

Watch this one at Brentford on 2mins:



You won’t see better heading technique than that anywhere. That’s Falcao in his prime standard.
 
doesn't play for one of the media darlings sadly. And that lot have the cheek to compare saka with him!

Does make me laugh how much better they think Saka is. He's been better in an England shirt purely because he's been played in his natural position. Phil's had to compete to get into the greatest club team England has ever seen, he's had no free ride here and yet he's outscored Saka despite playing a great deal in a position that's not his strongest and then adapting and evolving to play through the middle to even greater effect. He's also won more than Saka ever will when it comes to individual and team honours.

Exactly that.
