The fact that he hasn't played in the middle for a long time now and especially in a charity match such as this just shows how far away he is from having the trust of Pep to play there.
I think it's funny that people talk about Foden like he's been banished out to the wing because he doesn't have what it takes to play in the middle, instead of acknowledging that he is also a pretty fucking good winger.
He's often our best option on the left, whereas we have plenty of central midfielders. Who was going to play on the left last night instead of him?
For all Pep has said about him being young and needing to learn to slow down, he's also explicitly referred to him as a midfielder. The exact same thing happened with the likes of David Silva and Iniesta when they were younger.
