“Whenever we’re on the pitch together, he puts me on edge, and I struggle to find the back of the net,” Phil Foden reveals the Manchester City teammate with whom he feels uneasy playing alongside.

Earlier this at the Etihad Stadium, Manchester City bounced back with a win against Aston Villa, with one player drawing comparisons to Paul Gascoigne for his stellar performance.

Phil Foden delivered an impressive hat-trick in the victory, showcasing a considerable improvement from City’s previous disappointing outing against Arsenal.

City took an early lead through Rodri, with Foden later regaining the lead for the team. His second goal, a result of a well-executed free kick, showcased his sharpness in front of the goal. Foden completed his hat-trick with a spectacular finish, earning praise throughout the match.

Foden’s performance, particularly his ball-handling skills, led Ally McCoist to liken him to the England legend Gascoigne. McCoist highlighted their shared ability to maneuver with the ball without needing to focus solely on it, showcasing a rare talent.

With stellar performances like this, Foden strengthens his case for the PFA Player of the Season award, drawing admiration from pundits like McCoist for his exceptional display on the field.
