Phil Foden - 2017/18 performances

[bluealf]

Love this from Foden. The fact it's against Herrera, the biggest shithouse in the United squad, makes it all the sweeter.

Just how can you differentiate between Rags, Herrera or Roja or the spitting elbow, so the biggest shithouse competition in that squad is of the highest calibre and really to hard to choose, I vote we just give to them all, the dirty rag scummers.

Elbows for me. I fucking detest the lanky coward and would love the opportunity to knock seven shades of shit out of him

Anyone else get the feeling that the fact that that display came against the rags has done the lad a favour? Against anyone else there is no way the BBC (say) would have been all over his display in the same way - probably wouldn't even have seen it...

It's only one of a few factors, but it seems to be a perfect storm.

He'll definitely get more of a chance in light of Sancho's accusations that the academy players can't see a way into the first team.

Now Neville's comments will cement it that Foden will be pushed out as our shining academy product.

If he can capitalise on the events causing him to get a fair shake, then the sky is the limit for the lad.

I would say he's like Messi but with better close control and a better left foot.

Two areas where Messi falls short. How is he on high crosses?

 

[CityStu]

Bodes well for the season that he's been involved in the away kit launch. Seems silly to launch it with his face then hide him away in the academy or out on loan for the rest of the year.

I hope he starts vs Madrid. He can become a world class number 10. Decision making is what separates good players from GOATs.

Got your wish. Him, Kev, and Yaya in a 3-5-2 tonight.

 

[Hungarian blue]

He's finding it a bit more tough against Madrid, but love his drive and work off the ball, even though it's understandable he works his ass off given the chance. :)
