#47 | Phil Foden - 2019/20 Performances

[Tugay One Cup]

What's the point? Serious question.

 

[goatersnipple]

It's like Pep does it on purpose to rub his face in it. I just hope the lad stays patient and hopefully our next manager puts his trust in him.

Dont talk absolute piss.
He will play next year when merlin leaves

So we are to believe a player Pep doesn't trust to put on until the last 3 minutes is going to replace Silva next season? And you say I'm the one talking piss?

 

[MeatHunterrr]

No way Foden is replacing anybody next season. If he was he would be playing much more. He won't go from cameos and League Cup games to replacing a legend.

 

[Trojan1962]

The lad played midweek and he will play this week. He is in Peps plans I am certain of that

I keep reading this but how do we really know if he is ready to step into this team without seeing him get substantial minutes under his belt, I fully understand that Pep's priority is the success on the field not giving Foden minutes but why not bring him on for the last 10 minutes rather than the last 3.

He'll start midweek.

I'm genuinely interested why anyone would think he's going to start in the CL?

Apologies I thought we were playing in the League Cup midweek.i like you in that case can’t see him starting

 

[itisrising]

It's a long season and Foden literally has to start games during the festive period so I'm calm about his situation. However, there has to be a discussion in regards to Guardiola and youth development; we played two central defensive midfielders at CB instead of Garcia which has to make a statement regarding his own future at the club and how much trust Guardiola has on him and our youth as a whole.

 

[Stelea]

The reason that Foden is not getting games is Peps I insistence to play Gundogan virtually every game. Really don’t know what his merits are to start virtually every game. He was mediocre again today and like a headless chicken towards the end
