It was dafter than that. Hudson-Odoi was a better prospect as he'd played for England (having never started a Premier league game) and clubs would buy him but not pay £40m for Foden (though H-O had asked for a transfer request). And this was all after Pep implied that Foden's ready to start in any game. It was utterly bizarre stuff.Foden would represent a gamble if a club signed him, Hudson -Odoi wouldn't. Nobody else agreed with him and Garth Crooks said Foden is at the best possible club for his future development, and is being coached by the best. Crooks was very complimentary.
