Two Manchester City players, Phil Foden and Rodri, have been named in WhoScored’s Team of 2024 so far, showcasing their impressive performances. City has had a successful start to the year without any losses, a trend that is typical for manager Pep Guardiola’s side in the second half of the season. Despite this, star striker Erling Haaland did not make the team, despite his previous inclusion in the Team of the Season.

Foden and Rodri have been key players for Manchester City, with high ratings in WhoScored’s calculations. Their contributions have been vital to City’s success so far in 2024, with Foden’s creativity in the attacking third and Rodri’s dominance in midfield standing out. Their form will be crucial for City as they aim to compete for multiple trophies by the end of the season.

While Foden and Rodri have been recognized for their performances, the absence of Haaland from the Team of 2024 so far is notable. Despite his impact in previous seasons, Haaland’s goals and assists in the Premier League in 2024 were not enough to secure him a spot. City will rely on Foden and Rodri to maintain their form and lead the team to success in the remaining fixtures of the season.
