Wilshere impressed by Man City midfielder Foden for England's World Cup win

Arsenal coach Jack Wilshere was impressed by Phil Foden for England's World Cup win against Wales.

The Manchester City scored in the 3-0 win.

Wilshere wrote for The Sun: "Gareth Southgate made changes and gave more players in his squad valuable game-time — and they are all staking a claim to start now.

"I love Phil Foden, I've made that pretty clear. And, when he turned and had a shot as we approached the break, you could see that he was getting into his stride.

"His tricky run produced the free-kick from which Marcus Rashford scored a beautiful opening goal.

"Foden then got one for himself from Harry Kane's cross, before Rashford got that third one to round off a great display."
