I didn’t think he would be anywhere near the team today. Ran his socks off midweek after getting twatted and for me should have had the day off. Given his performance, we wouldn’t have missed him.
This is why he doesn't and shouldn't play in midfield more often. Touched the ball 1/2 as often than any other starting mid from both teams. Terrible game.
Anyone giving phil foden grief about todays game & his performance.. give your heads a wobble. He is 21,he played in a crucial CL game wednesday, was kicked to high heaven & some are expecting miracles today? The spotlight needs to be shone on certain other senior players, who did not play as many minutes midweek & did not turn up today
Not at the races today , a jaded performance and is in desperate need of a rest , playing him centre forward is taking its toll and he has the bruises to prove it , also referees are giving him little protection.
Its good experience for him , but the signing of grealish and failure to get a striker has not helped him this season , if Haaland arrives expect him to play the Merlin role in the team in the future.
