After Manchester City’s victory at Brentford on Monday, Cityzens coach Pep Guardiola praised the merits of Phil Foden.
Manchester City owes its last victory to a Phil Foden of great evenings. During the match against Brentford (1-3), the English attacking midfielder scored a hat-trick, allowing the Skyblues, trailing in the 21st minute after Neal Maupay’s opening score, to win three crucial points. The Stockport native’s dazzling performance drew praise from manager Pep Guardiola.
“I said a few weeks ago that Phil was having the most influential season of his career with us in terms of goals and assists,” the Spaniard said. This season he is so important to us. He reads the game very well. He is an intelligent player and he runs for the team. He is a truly exceptional player. At his age, he has already played 250 games for City, which means he has definitely had an influence since his arrival. »
The 53-year-old boss also made a flattering comparison between Foden and two major City players, Kevin De Bruyne and Bernardo Silva. “He will succeed Kevin (De Bruyne) and Bernardo (Silva) in the future,” Guardiola said. It’s just a matter of time. Over the seasons, he will become a leader. He will have a long and successful career, although it only depends on him, how much he wants to concentrate on his work and on every detail of his life. »
