At 23 years of age, Phil Foden is already having the best season of his 'tender' career, with 24 goals and 11 assists in 48 games for Manchester City. However, Pep Guardiola believes he is capable of even more. In the press conference previewing the match on matchday 35 of the Premier League, against Nottingham Forest, the coach of the reigning European champions heaped praise on the English international, and revealed what, in his opinion, he still needs to achieve the 'pinnacle' of world football. "I would love him to put sixth gear in all the actions, but then he would be less precise, he would lose the ball all the time, and that is not effective," he began by saying, in statements reproduced by the British newspaper The Guardian. "You have to slow down the tempo, so that you know the moments when you have to be more aggressive and calmer. But it is a question of time. He can improve a lot, and he has improved a lot, since the beginning of the season, and in relation to previous seasons," he continued. "Maybe the third child who is coming to his family can help," completed the Spanish coach, laughing.
