Man City boss Guardiola: Foden now a world class player

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola admits he's excited by the development of Phil Foden.

Foden was the matchwinner at Bournemouth on Saturday.

"Forget about the goals, of course they are important," said Guardiola.

"Do you know how he played, how he controlled and accelerated?

"He has already become a top-class football player. Before he was a little boy with good actions and now he is a world-class top player. He's so good. He can play everywhere but especially in central positions he is really, really, really good.
