  • Arsenal forced Manchester City to go to the final day, but Pep Guardiola's side were ahead within 3 minutes and never looked back. But as a fourth Premier League title heads to the Etihad, one player in a squad of superstars shone above all others. Phil Foden, finally trusted in the most important part of the pitch, has dragged City through a difficult season. Adam Clery looks at why his goal against West Ham was the perfect summation of his incredible season.

  • @broccolihikicks
    @broccolihikicks 24 дня назад +36

    The other thing about Foden being trusted is around not giving the ball away. I think it was the Palace game when Foden was trying to dribble past players on the halfway line, lost the ball and Palace scored to take points. Guardiola was apeplectic. He seems to have got that out of his game, hence the trust. But on Rodri - thank you, please.

      He's also become a very versatile and useful piece linking build-up and being available to absorb pressure in the build-up.

  • @gmoney1664
    @gmoney1664 21 день назад +5

    Yes to a Rodri vid. He's a monster and arguably the most consistent (and to a massively high standard) player in the City squad.
    He's up there as the best to play in that position, in the premier league's history - appreciate Makelele is also very firmly in that debate, but while they're in the same role, they're very different players

    Mixing up the attack with a few long-shots every now and then is just clever and wise.
    Because it means that the defenders cant just stay back and mark their man, but also have to push out in order to stop the long-shot.
    Creating room for the box-player.. (Haaland).

  • @ducks742
    @ducks742 24 дня назад +7

    The first time I ever saw Foden play was back in 2017 or 2018.
    The way he received the ball and turned simultaneously (like 9:08) really stuck with me. Happy to see he's still doing that move.

  • @milesmsomi6665
    @milesmsomi6665 23 дня назад +5

    I have to say that, earlier in the season when Matheus Nunez, randomly, started playing well out wide, I had theorised that he could be the key to keep Foden and De Bruyne in the same 11 and solve Foden's defensive weakness. I basically said he would play out wide with possession, giving Phil the license to play in midfield and then playing alongside Rodri without the ball and Foden returning to his starting position on the left, to solve the defensive problem of having both KDB and Foden. But Pep decided to do me one better. He said, Gvardiol will be the wide player, Foden playing alongside De Bruyne in the box midfield and Kovacic playing alongside Rodri in the midfield (as opposed to John Stones, like last season.) What a manager. Knows whats best for the team and knows his player's abilities.

  • @sammakwela
    @sammakwela 21 день назад +4

    I'm not really a Man City fan, but give Rodri his video. What he does is less obvious than what Foden does.
    PS: Pep should come to South Africa to be a coaches coach. We already posses a similar football style. We just need that extra tactical prowess and we'll be like Brail.

    Man City dropped 8 points in their last 23 PL matches.
    Arsenal dropped 5 points in their last 18 PL matches.
    If Arsenal "bottled" at all at any point, it was the 5-game run in December where they took 4 points in 5 matches. But that was right after Man City had no wins in 4 and only managed 3 draws. So we've just had 5 months of INSANE football from two spectacular teams.
    Oh and also, Rodri Video Yes Plz.

      - Make rice stay back as cdm and play a man city 4141, but trust maguire to hold the fort when stones steps up to help in cm
      - play foden out wide with permission to roam where he likes, but needing a high lb to keep the width and expect Maguire to cover
      - bench one of them
      - invent a time machine, and give other cb pairings experience 2 years ago, when everyone else in the world could see maguire was a liability

    Nearly everyone asserts club's competing with Manchester City for the title need to build a significant lead by Christmas. Yet the vast majority of fans & pundits are excusing Arsenal finishing 2nd, because they only loss to Villa in the 2nd half of the season. Which is commendable, but they failed to capitalize when City were struggling & dealing with the Club World Cup.
