47 | Phil Foden - 2022/23

[Craig]

Cracking goal but in general he was shite again. Pep is probably getting loads of shit for not making subs but the one he made was supposed to give us width. Once again Foden just refused to attack and played sideways. Would have been better leaving Cancelo cutting inside but attacking.

Foden has had an eye on the World Cup for a while hence his lacklustre performances of late

Needs to have a big impact from the bench then as Sterling and Saka will be starting outside Kane. Be a miracle if Mr negative trusts him as a number 10 and even on England form he doesn’t deserve a wide birth.

Maybe he’s just thinking about his next tattoo.

He won't even start in the world cup so the fact he's fannied out of everything for 6 weeks is even more annoying.

He's stalled. Needs to start winning games to take the next step, otherwise he'll end up a coulda been

Agree very disappointing on the whole this season.

Watching from the South Stand, Phil looked poor all the through the first half. His strike was absolutely brilliant and I thought he might come out in the second half and grab the game by the scruff of the neck. Alas, he was just as poor in the second half.

He’s got 8 goals so far, a few assists and a couple of great performances. Our expectations of him are ridiculously high.

His alleged performances away from home off the pitch might be an issue.

I’m a huge fan of Phil but definitely feel like he was one of those holding back yesterday. Took his goal well but spent a lot of the game hiding and not getting involved. So many times he had the chance to take a man on or put a ball in but he’d pass it to the closest player to put it in instead.

Shame Foden's brilliant goal was wasted on the that performance today , the equaliser should have been the boost we needed to go and win the game.

Absolutely true. It should have been the launchpad for a very different second half performance.
