Feel free to add more if you have them. These are just the City supporting lads from a young age, but it would still be great to see the other players’ starts contrasted with their CL triumph.

Have to say, Foden acting as a ball boy to becoming one of the most decorated players in his boyhood club’s history, coming on in the final and helping the team to win the trophy he had watched them struggle to attain for so many years is the thing of legend and usually only happens in sappy Hollywood scripts.

I think there will eventually be a biopic of his life and career, actually. How could any producer resist this kind of story. Practically writes itself, even has the momentary missteps and controversies to make it juicy.

Yes but they are saying we don’t bring any players through coz he didn’t come on until the 30th minute.

I think Pep will win it with the academy boys, he’s intent on destroying every myth associated with that shitstain of a club.

Wtf? Was he in the face-off programme of something??

Foden being a ball boy is like a Hollywood story

He’s basically Jimmy Grimble

It’s a distinct possibility.

Ironically, he could be made to look like Nicholas Cage far more convincingly than John Travolta. ;-)

Would love to see Sergio Gomez come good. Obviously means a lot to him to play for us.

I’ve not been watching him closely — likely to break in to the senior team in the future?
