I seem to remember Yaya having an absolute rocket of a shot with zero back-lift.
Yaya is possibly the truest striker of a football I've ever witnessed

You don't remember Francis Lee then?!!!It has to be Foden. Maybe the keeper should have saved that shot but that was a missile. It was like a shot out of the comic books where if the keeper had taken it he'd have been carried into the net.
Hard to believe that a player who is so small should be able to deliver such power.
I remember when TV used to record how fast a ball had travelled by measuring distance / time. Peter Lorimer used to be regarded as having the hardest shot in English football. I don't remember any City players being notorious for their shooting. Alan Shearer and Roberto Carlos are players I remember who hit the ball really hard. Beckham bent it. I'd have liked to have been behind the goal when Foden hit that.
No. I remember him from the takeover but I just missed his playing days. Started going in about 1975 as a very young boy with my Dad but didnt start regularly until the early 80s. Foden strikes a ball really well but I don't know how he does it. It's obviously not a matter of just whacking it though that must help! Golfers will probably have theories.You don't remember Francis Lee then?!!!
