Manchester City midfielder Phil Foden admits he enjoys playing alongside Erling Haaland.

Foden says he feels "lucky" to train and play alongside Haaland. He went on to say Haaland's inclusion in the City squad "is good for the team" and that his presence will help them in the future.

Speaking after City's FA Cup triumph over Burnley, Foden said: "It's a pleasure [to play with Haaland], I don't know how he does it. The one that I hit off the post, he always seems to be in the right place, expecting things, little ricochettes and things like that.

"The way his brain works, he always seems to be in the right place to finish the ball, and to play with a player like that it's always a massive boost for us because when it's a tight game and it's 0-0 and there's not a lot of chances we've been relying on him to get us a goal and it's a real pleasure to play with him.

"In previous years we didn't really have a striker and now he's here we've adapted a little bit and we're even still getting used to him now so it's good for the team and it's only going to help us in the future.

"It makes my job easier being an attacking player and looking at someone that wants to score goals and is always ready and in the box it makes it a lot easier."

Foden went on to speak about the similarities between Haaland and Harry Kane, claiming they are "both unbelievable players".

"They're both unbelievable," he said. "When I see them both in training and they both finish most of their chances I feel lucky sometimes to play with these players and see them up close and when no one sees them in training and the things they do, it's just a pleasure and I enjoy it, every moment."
