Phil Foden has admitted that he has had to take Pep Guardiola’s calls to focus on board after making his goal-scoring return to the starting XI.
Phil Foden said: “Yeah definitely. Around the Christmas time you can’t really take your foot off the gas. You have to keep going and remain focused. This team’s doing that at the moment and you can see that we’re getting maximum points and that’s really good to see.”
It’s been a great week for City as Liverpool lost to Leicester on Tuesday and Brighton equalised late on against Chelsea to see City extend their lead at the top. Foden believes that just shows how challenging the league is.
Phil Foden added: “It’s the most challenging league in the world and just goes to show you can drop points at any time. Like I said, the team is remaining focussed at the moment and playing really well so I’m happy.”
