47 | Phil Foden - 2024/25

He has to defend that cross better, but man, the comments about him made me think I was watching a different match. I thought he was our best player, and his effort before and after Bournemouth's goal was great.
We need him to score goals and he missed two big chances, and it's not like he's creating a lot of chances either, he looks like the Euros Phil and that's not good enough.
 
Foden has great energy but on days like today he is having to drop off too far to receive the ball to feel involved, and he is then too far from Haaland to be effective in the final third.

I'm probably reaching here, but the amount of noise online about him being "selfish" has, in my eyes, got to him. In the last UCl match, there was a moment when he passed up on a great goal-scoring chance only to pass it to Gundo. His best trait is his goal-scoring ability. He needs to be shooting at every opportunity he thinks is good.

That said, he should have scored that chance in the dying minutes to bring us even.

His energy was great and he isn't far from hitting form. That said, he missed 2 chances and created 0 chances. Nunes was better, created 4 chances.
 
A hattrick of poor efforts, has to be scoring at least once today, especially when he's not doing enough without the goals.

Proofmcfc described it perfectly above, he needs to find the swagger and ego of a premier league player of the season and start taking charge of games, he should be clawing back a point at least for us in these kind of games, be the main man.
 
That one at the end was…unlucky. But still, should be hitting the target IMO.

Edge of the area, uncontested and on his strongest foot. Shame he didn’t make the most of it.
