It is a good season rather than a brilliant one especially with the injury distruption. He has earnt another season but there is still plenty of room for improvement.

What I don’t get about your posts is the quote “he’s earned another season” can you clarify what you mean by saying this..It is a good season rather than a brilliant one especially with the injury distruption. He has earnt another season but there is still plenty of room for improvement.

Foden was with the first team squad for 3 years before making 20 PL appearances in a season.Age means nothing in terms of development. It didn't take Foden too long.
Of course he can improve a lot on his deficiencies. Age is important I could point out plenty of players who kicked on a lot from 21. It’s important in his case that he’s still new to the league and working with Pep. He’s not particularly quick over 50 yards but his acceleration over a short distance is exceptional and can leave any fullback for dead. He’s got attributes you can’t teach and weaknesses that can definitely be improved upon.Still can't really improve that much and what we are seeing his best which is still a little inconsisitent and it still a physical attribute.
Not having he can’t be comfortable on the right either. As against Villa in one of his very few starts there he was very good. I’m hoping Pep revisits that soon as that Villa game was as well balanced as we’ve looked in a good while with Grealish keeping the width and the ball on the left and Doku able to give us genuine width by going on the outside and able to pick someone out for his assist by being on his strong foot to play the cross in for Rodri. It certainly created much more space for Foden to do his thing in the middle. Agree his first touch could be improved and lately it has been better.

If not for Doku we wouldn't be in the Final.

Probably trying to wind up some people.What I don’t get about your posts is the quote “he’s earned another season” can you clarify what you mean by saying this..
I don't think he's serious. Well, unless he refuses to celebrate next time Doku scores a banger.
And how do you know that ?Still can't really improve that much and what we are seeing his best which is still a little inconsisitent and it still a physical attribute.
Not a wind up he is a good player but I wouldn't call world class either. You could argue the same with the Erling Haaland threadProbably trying to wind up some people.

Other than the Villa game opposition defenders are more comfortable when he does play on that side. He can definetly improve mentally and tactically when in that position but technically he is more comfortbally on the left sideOf course he can improve a lot on his deficiencies.
