47 | Phil Foden - 2023/24

Seemed up for it first 10-20. Had Gomez on toast then just vanished entirely. Should have scored both the chance in the first few minutes and the one second half. Not the only one that didn't turn up today but he's the one bang in form and we needed his magic.

There is too much evidence this season that when Foden is on the ball more, we are a better team.

Team tried to give the ball to him as much as they could. The problem is on Foden himself could not hold on the ball. He lost the ball too much, especially in 2nd half. Kev was no better than him. So no one on the right hand side could hold the ball for 2 seconds.
 
Foden is not really a possession player which makes him suitable for the wing given his fluid runs. But if the team is not doing well its hard for him to assert himself. Room to grow mentally still.
 
It’s funny that the comment above mine says he’s “not a possession player.” He's brilliant on the ball, and it’s almost impossible to get it off him. He has no business being played out wide.
 
Good again. This is what we need from him, it used to be hes either the star or barely involved, we needed him to become a constant threat every game even when hes not scoring or providing and thats currently what he is. Just needs to keep it up. Keep playing him and he'll deliver.

seems to be becoming more one footed though. Would have scored second half had he gone with his right foot instead of bringing the ball onto his left and into traffic.
