Phil Foden - 2017/18 performances

[Delphacito]

Go on Phil! Just making Sancho looking more and more like a fool.

 

[Jazzcat]

Congrats to the lad, a well deserved promotion.
Will be interesting to see how he is going to progress, might just be a worldy.

Been promoted to the first team by Pep according to Sam Lee and could be on the bench on Saturday. Good lad.

He's earned his chance. Maybe Sancho should wind his neck in, look at what Phil has done and learn from it.

 

[Don Karleone]

Fantastic news and well deserved.

 

[Manchester_lalala]

He's going to be a star. Reminds me of wilshere before his injuries.

 

[Ric]

Great news, and well deserved.

They play in different positions and Sancho has a lot more competition for his position. Roberts probably won't get an opportunity either.

I hope this is true as I really feel he could be exactly the sort of squad player we need this year and, if he continues to progress, the perfect starting CM/AM for our triple winning sides in the future. ;-)

Chuffed for the lad. He's grabbed his chance with both hands. Hope he continues to develop and makes himself a regular starter in a few years.

We only have Sane and Sterling as pure wingers - Roberts doesn't look like he's sticking around. There definitely was a chance for him to make his case the same way Foden has, especially if we don't sign another forward - it says in Lee's article that we're considering Diaz (who isn't a natural winger) as an option out wide.
