Phil Foden wants to prove that he is also an irreplaceable factor like Kevin De Bruyne or Erling Haaland. The more he plays, the more he improves each year. Before, he was a kid with potential and is now a world-class player. He can play anywhere, especially in central positions. PlayingBeing able to play in the center of midfield and attack gives him maximum comfort and creativity. While De Bruyne was out of action due to injury, Foden and Alvarez were continuously placed in this position by Pep. Since then, Foden has found a new position that suits his abilities. He is so excellent.

He will always become one of important player owned by manchester city but i think that if city is always having trouble when it was facing the strong club in the defensive mode. The match against brentford and bournemouth have proven it. City is always struggling to beat the fully defensive club.
Guardiola has no solution for this. he has been trying to change the strategy against bournemouth but im not seeing improvement happens to this club. It's so crazy to see that guardiola puts a lot of players as attackers. It seems he tried to pressuring the defensive team by putting a lot of attackers upfront.
Well, at least guardiola has tried to do his best but we must be waiting for another solution that will be coming from him. Im sure there will be another interesting to come from him like he will do another experiement to break the defensive straategy.
It's known so well how defensive strategy was always preventing the club to win the game. A proper club with very good defensive straetgy combined with effective counter attack will always be a nightmare for club that playes openly. City's main weakness has been discovered,
There will be more tougher games to come in the future. The club needs to make fully preparation against it. I meant that if pep must be exploring more possibilities to reduce the chance for the defensive club in preventing city to get three points.
It's not only about how consistent the gameplay. It's related to how good the strategy that can discover the main weakness from its opponent.
