i think he has the skillset to be great on the right wing i dont see him staying on the left wing long term.

Exactly. He is a central midfielder. His passing range is incredible. Didn't the media say Pep was coaching him to be a no 8 in training.

I don't think he will ever have the pace to get past full backs. He isnt that quick.

He's a lot faster than people give him credit for. His issue atm is that he's not quite got the strength to consistently make the most of it like Walker for example does.

It's why De Bruyne often charges past people with ease despite not being a speedster himself.

People only think he is a speedster because of those bullshit sprint speeds that the premier league supposedly records.

Do you mean like play him in as a no 8 and have him set the tempo of the game with his passing.

If you have a special talent and in my personal view he is you can do 2 things

Play him all over the place because he is good he will do well in most positions or

Get him on the ball as much as possible


Phil tends to be brilliant or have a quiet game, he never has a stinker just doesn’t get involved a lot. Personally if the team works around him he can’t have a quiet game. Not many managers would have put Zidane on the wing or gascoigne as a false 9. Him and Silva are our best players so I would play them both as 8s but Foden should go where the ball is he shouldn’t be restricted.
 
just doing so many good things in every game. established himself as one of the first name on the team
