Phil Foden only played once in the match against Iran, as a substitute and played 19 minutes. In the match against the United States, Foden did not play.
“I’m confused about Phil Foden who has never played, even though he’s one of the best players in England at the moment,” said Neville. Sky Sports.
“Foden played under Pep Guardiola. If he had played for the Brazilian or Argentine national team, he would have been in the starting lineup,” he continued.
Gary Neville also mentioned, Phil Foden be only the fifth choice due to the abundant supply of wing forwards and central midfielders. For Neville, Foden should have a chance as a first choice!
“Southgate said, Foden is not a suitable player in midfield because Bellingham and Mount are already there. Then on the wings there are Sterling, Saka, Grealish and Rashford. So Foden is only the fifth choice, maybe Southgate didn’t see the potential that Foden has?” He explained.
“I think Foden can be a talented and brilliant player,” he concluded.
