#47 | Phil Foden - 2021/22 Performances

[Maly]

Yeah that make sense.

I was thinking Foden at LCM mainly due to his link up with Grealish who plays LW. I think they would form a great connection on that left side with a lot of short one twos and through balls which can create problems for teams that park the bus.

Also we need to keep Bernardo at RCM.

Wonder if we’ll ever see Foden on the right side & Grealish on the left side of a CM partnership?

Foden is the sort of player you want on the ball as often as possible. Ultimately, he'll play in a deeper position and start running games.

 

[Barcon]

Oh great, we're back on Gascoigne again.

Haha. You have to laugh.

 

[JDV]

Wonder if we’ll ever see Foden on the right side & Grealish on the left side of a CM partnership?

Hopefully not because I don't want to think about us not having Silva!

Bellingham, Foden and Rice is a hell of a midfield 3.

 

[Radiohead1981]

Bellingham, Foden and Rice is a hell of a midfield 3.

That's provided Southgate has the sense to play foden in midfield. Which I don't think he has.

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

Bellingham, Foden and Rice is a hell of a midfield 3.

The first two, yes. The last one not really

 

[oldius]

The first two, yes. The last one not really

It's the combination that's needed, otherwise, we just have talented individuals.

 

[FromPollockToSilva]

In terms of movement, energy, pressing, control, that was an exemplary false-9 performance. His positioning was so clever and he didn’t give them a moment’s peace off the ball

If he’d had his shooting boots on he’d have bagged at least a couple too

 

[lightning Rodri]

That skill for second goal was brilliant. How was that not a penalty when Maguire's challenge on him? Never shown again as well !
