Phil Foden

[Corriebear]

Phenomenal talent. He’s already won seven major honours and he’s only 20.

EPL x2
FA Cup
League Cup x4

If he continues on his current trajectory he’ll be the most successful player in England.

 

[MarcoNegri]

Think people scoffed or sniggered at Pepe when he described Foden as the most talented player he has ever seen a couple of years back.

Certainly looking like it now

Sure he's on a ridiculously low wage as well, 12k a week

There was an article recently saying he was currently on 30k a week but Man City were preparing to offer him a new deal of 100k a week.

 

[Caldow3]

Good player and will get even better.....as long as he stays grounded.

 

[laud55]

Would have him as our No 10 ( and give Steve another shirt number lol)

 

[DerekSSR]

Didn't we try get him on loan last season aswell?

 

[No.8]

Foden is absolutely flying at the moment and looks unstoppable ... Sterling is falling even faster than Foden is rising and now plays like a caricature of himself..

Sterling is just lacking confidence. He should look at Stones for inspiration

There was an article recently saying he was currently on 30k a week but Man City were preparing to offer him a new deal of 100k a week.

I'd have thought they'd offer him more than that. Not quite Haaland level talent but not too far behind. Any basic wage he's currently on will be massively topped-up by first team appearance money.

 

[Valleyloyal]

The way he drives the ball is actually frightening, so much class this kid.

Some of his movement on the ball reminds me of George Best.

 

[Donsky]

Hopefully English media don't ruin the boy like they have done so many others.

 

[wilso10]

I was going to ignore this but I just can’t.

Haaland has a great scoring record and could possibly be the long term replacement for Aguero but Foden and Haaland were recently on the same pitch! Haaland never got a kick for 180 minutes!!

Putting aside the fact he’s 20 years old. Foden is a standout in arguably the best English team in years

You should have just ignored him, the same poster said Luis Suarez was an average footballer less than a year ago. Don't waste your time engaging.

Foden is destined to become a World Class talent under Pep.

 

[Centralbear]

Yes but how will he cope in the Euros against O’Donnell, the best right back in Scotland?

Haha, had forgot about this, could be the funniest thing of 2021.

And how will his team mates fare against a Scotland side made up with a number of players from the "best" team in Scotland.

 

[RobbenHood]

If I was Foden I’d be asking for similar terms to Sterling, he’d be worth every penny

England will probably be happy to escape with a draw against a team which includes players from the Gallowgate Galacticos.

 

[Braeside58]

Brilliant player with a big future ahead of him.

 

[Centralbear]

England will probably be happy to escape with a draw against a team which includes players from the Gallowgate Galacticos.

Sure they would, might have to park the bus to achieve it tho, especially if the saviours of Scotland, Griffiths and Forrest get the call up.

 

[Xavi Hernandez]

He will become the best player in the world.

What a first touch he has, and tremendous balance. He has the lot.

Has been managed brilliantly, learning his trade with some of the finest midfielders in the EPL era. David Silva probably has had the biggest influence on him.

Good luck to the lad.

 

[Xavi Hernandez]

Didn't we try get him on loan last season aswell?

I think half the teams in England tried to get him on loan but Pep was having none of it. You can see why.

 

[chosen few]

You have to be a special talent to replace David Silva

 

[Business_Bear]

He's top class and improving

 

[northsealoyal]

Outstanding he has the potential to be England’s greatest ever player ballon d,or multiple future winner

 

[ItsInTheNet]

He is a terrific player!

 

[Arminius]

Foden and Mount from Chelsea were devastating together the last time they played for England.

Ah, but how would they fare against a top midfield of McGregor, McLean and the Potato. That’s the question

 

[Anoldranger]

By far and away the best player in the EPL this season. The lad has everything passes superbly,can tackle,scores goals and he has a fantastic temperament pure class.

 

[Stuhercules]

Ah, but how would they fare against a top midfield of McGregor, McLean and the Potato. That’s the question

And Duffy hahahahahah. Kane and Sterling would be useless too lol.

 

[Mobear]

Brilliant player will go right to the top.Has been handled well by Pepe and City.

 

[orderrestored]

I only noticed him in the first leg when he went on that amazing run. His technique and speed are phenomenal, England never produces players like that.

Said in the match thread he is their best prospect since teenage Rooney. If I remember Rooney had an excellent Euros in 2004 when he was just breaking through, Foden can do the same this year and he could be a truly world class player, even better potentially.

 

[Silgni RFC]

Having a look on skybet and seen a special bet of - Foden to win the Ballan D’or atleast once in his career @ 8/1.

Personally i think that odds are quite decent and thinking about a punt on it. What do you all think?

 

[temperance]

Fantastic player already, and if he continues to develop, I see him being up there with the likes of Gerrard and Lampard.

 

[wearetheppl]

He’s a great player. Hopefully keeps his feet on the ground and doesn’t believe the hype like other English “wonderkids”

Thats going to be the biggest thing. If he can keep his feet on the ground. He definitely has the potential to be.

I took it last week when it was 14/1

surely he’s not on that kind of dough now mate?!

 

[Pol1_]

surely he’s not on that kind of dough now mate?!

It was one of these end of year reports that I read. As someone said further up it is more like 30k a week

 

[Big Joke New]

This is all very well but could he do it on a cold Tuesday night in Brechin?
