Shocking performance, all players have dips but what's the excuse for lack of effort and desire?

Too happy to go missing and to let the game go on around him, time to drop him regardless of our issues.

Do you honestly believe what you have posted ?

I do not accept that professional players simply do not care about their performances.

You have no idea whether he has fitness issues or other issues affecting the way he is able to perform at present. The way the whole team is performing suggests that there are many problems within the squad, and yet you have decided that he is " too happy to go missing and let the game go on around him ".

It is this kind of comment, albeit your opinion to which you are entitled, which I find so disappointing when coming from our own supporters.

Not dissimilar to RawK and rag cafe imo.

Foden has had a shocking Euros followed by a shocking season so far in our shirt.

I don't know what the issue is but clearly there is a problem.

Last season he was magnificent and was rightly rewarded with the personal awards but now he has set his standard and so far since those awards he is way off that level.

Injury, illness, family problems who knows but there is a problem.

He was too happy to disappear yesterday and at times he was not doing the hard work.

Maybe his teammates made him look good last season. The same teammates are completely off this season.

And you still do not know what his issues are, but maintain he was in your opinion " too happy to disappear "

With over 29,000 posts I find your tone on occasions strange, varying from sensible and considered to hyperbolic and reactionary, but that is only my observation.

The only thread worth reading for me currently is the one addressing the PL, the **** Masters, and the cabal clubs, because of the potential impact on City, so I'm out.
 
There was a moment yesterday when he lost the ball and didn’t remotely try to win it back. It led to the moment where Akanji was trying to get his attention.

We had it a couple of years ago where Phil was in and out the team for 6 months, then came back the season after stronger.

We just don’t have the ability to give him a break at the moment. Experimenting with Grealish in that position could give him a break.
 
I don't judge someone off of one bad game.. it can happen.. but I think there's something wrong with him.. something physically or medically. I don't know what it is.. I will not speculate.. but he's not the player he was last season physically.

He just seems to be devoid of energy.. doesn't have the willpower or energy to press, get the ball back like he used to and if you remember he used to be our best presser. In fact it was his pressing that benched Sterling.

Even his passes and shots don't come off with the same venom/ authority as before where he could beat defenses.. but instead now they find opposition team players and he's only 24..

I hope our medical staff can fix this or we might actually need another midfielder if it's a really bad injury.
