Congrats Phil. You so deserve it. But I dont even think you are at your best yet.

Phil Foden wins FWA footballer & PL player of the year.

Clearly a deserved award. Stand out player in the league, no doubt.
I'm sure Pep will keep Phil grounded, though. He still has so much potential to realise.
Thinking of the Real Madrid games: Phil popped up at one vital moment (proving that he has the cojones for the big stages), but was absent for large parts of both legs.
He's only 23. For context, we signed David Silva and Aguero when they were respectively that age. He's already achieved much of what they did.
But his next step is to become an omnipresent influence on every match he plays. He has already demonstrated an ability to "grab games by the scruff of the neck." But now? He needs to step up in more of the big games in a bigger manner.
When he does that, he will win Ballon D'Ors, possibly even a World Cup medal or two. Such is his talent.
FWA POTY at 23 years old is a huge achievement. And deserved. But Phil can't rest on his laurels. His ceiling is too high.

Well done Phil. Much deserved.
Not read the full thread but, despite the fact that we aren't really here, our players have won it 4 times in the last 6 years:
Sterling, Diaz, Haaland and now Foden.
Happy days!

Well done Phil,
No one turns on the ball better than Foden. David silva but built like a race horse. Should play every game in the middle.

Fully deserved. Finally some tangible recognition.
