Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola has heaped praises on 18-year-old England youngster, Phil Foden following his side’s Premier League 2-0 victory over Cardiff City on Wednesday night.
Guardiola praised Foden for his “excellent” performance against the visitors.
Foden went close to scoring on three occasions, with his closest effort striking the post.
Goals from Kevin De Bruyne and Leroy Sane ensured Guardiola’s men defeated Neil Warnock’s side at Etihad.
“We played really well. We started really well. A magnificent goal from Kevin de Bruyne,” Guardiola was quoted by Metro UK as saying after the match.
“Unfortunately we missed a lot of chances, we need to score more goals.
“Phil Foden played excellent. He did everything, arriving in the right positions with the right tempo.
“He always has chances, has a sense of goal. He’s ready, we know it, to play any game in any position.
“He competes with David Silva, Kevin, Gundogan, Bernardo. He trains incredible,” he added.
