People go overboard on Foden. That was his best game last night, getting on the ball in the areas you want him too, central and sometimes deeper. Getting back to make the tackles on Xhaka. Why the clamour from likes of me and others to play him central in a 4-3-3.
Like getting on the ball on half turn, then seeing the run of Saka and playing it pinpoint is what you want. Just Kane killed it by not moving in that whole sequence.
Doesn’t get talked about as he’s Mr Big Boy, but Bellingham was proper **** again last night. Didn’t help Foden in the press (and neither did Kane), was spent within the 90. Understand Gareth wants to leave him on so he can produce something, but it’s hurting the side as a result because it’s a central player with no energy.
