Player to watch – Phil Foden

Phil Foden has been in excellent form for Man City of late and if he returns from his dead leg in time to play against Luton, then he is going to be the player to watch in Saturday's clash.

The England international has scored 14 Premier League goals so far this season, just five fewer than Erling Haaland, as well as chipping in with seven assists, only Julian Alvarez has assisted more times.

Manchester City's player of the season?

Phil Foden might well clinch the Manchester City Player of the Season award this year after really establishing himself as one of Pep Guardiola's key players.
