Jack Grealish, speaking on behalf of Manchester City fans, expressed his delight following a 3-1 victory over Manchester United, inspired by Phil Foden. The win narrowed the gap at the top of the Premier League to just one point, with Foden showcasing his talent at the Etihad Stadium once again. Despite Erling Haaland missing an opportunity before halftime, he sealed the victory with a goal in injury time.

City showed resilience by coming from behind after an early goal by Marcus Rashford. Grealish, who is currently injured, praised Foden’s exceptional performance on social media. He posted on his Instagram Story, “Unreal!! What a performance @philfoden.”

Foden’s goal tally for the season now stands at 18, marking his best-scoring season for City. He is only two goals away from reaching the 20-goal milestone predicted by Danny Murphy. Foden’s versatility and skill were on full display during the match, as he continues to impress in any position he is placed in.

Despite initial concerns about his role following Kevin De Bruyne’s return, Foden has proven himself as a crucial player for City, particularly in big games. He consistently demonstrates his ability to influence the game and City fans are thrilled with his contributions. It is remarkable to think that Foden is still several years away from reaching his peak potential.

Grealish, who missed the derby match due to injury, remains actively involved and supportive of his team. The victory over Manchester United highlighted the depth and talent within the Manchester City squad, with Foden emerging as a standout performer. City supporters can look forward to continued success with players like Foden leading the way on the field.
