47 | Phil Foden - 2022/23

[M18CTID]

So those who were on here last week speculating that he and Pep had fallen out. Yeah, he looked proper unhappy on Sunday didn't he FFS?!!

I'm not sure why people can't accept that footballers are human beings and as such all players will suffer a dip in form at some point. I'd also argue that it's more difficult to maintain a consistently high standard in a Pep team as the demands are so great due to the high-risk football that we play and in Foden's case, it's literally been only 2 or 3 games. Kev's been off the boil too recently and Mahrez has been out of form this season for much longer than Foden has but at the moment he's smashing it.

Will never be as good as a lot of people seem to hope

Can't even get on the ball and influence the game against bottom of the league

I have to agree but lots of people won’t agree. I don’t think there has been any improvement this season

A lot of people in denial because he's a blue

Good player I'm not denying that, but it concerns me that people think he could fill Bernardos boots centrally if he was to leave

He looks sharp, will take time to learn that role but will be his position. Not helped by that Knobhead Cancelo taking his space. Hopefully get a centre half on for Gomez and put Cancelo left back. He’s coming inside on to his weak foot. Complete waste of time in that position from right back

Terrible this evening I’m afraid

He has got a problem and it needs sorting before it festers , he is playing like he isnt even bothered and for a lad who bleeds blue that is alarming

Couldn’t disagree more.. He wasn’t great tonight. But he was our best player tonight and was just about the only player trying..

Many many senior players were worse than him tonight..
