Jack Grealish heaped praise on Phil Foden after his outstanding showing for Manchester City in their latest 3-1 victory against Manchester United.
Initially, Grealish also raved about Foden on his Instagram story after the game, as he captioned the club’s post-match post, “Unreal! What a performance, Phil Foden.”
The Manchester City midfielder has become the centre of attention since his heroics against Manchester United on Sunday and justifiably so.
Jack Grealish has three-word reaction to the Phil Foden masterclass for Manchester City against Manchester United
After the contest, Pep Guardiola went as far as to claim that the 23-year-old is destined to go down as a “legendary player.”
Kyle Walker also described the season that the Stockport-born attacker is having as “first-class.”
While Ally McCoist firmly believes that the Englishman is the best player in the Premier League this season, bar none.
After Manchester City did the double over Manchester United, with Phil Foden taking centre stage, Jack Grealish commented on his post-match Instagram post, “What a player”, followed by a pair of blue-coloured heart emojis.
The Manchester Derby means the world to Phil Foden and he showed that
Jack Grealish and all the Manchester City players must have felt grateful for Phil Foden saving the day for them against Manchester United.
For local players, derby games such as the one on Sunday mean the world to them, as exemplified by Marcus Rashford’s animated celebration after his thunderous shot outside the box flew into the back of the net.
The same goes for Foden, who also showcased the importance of boyhood fans of the club going that extra mile to give their side the all-important win.
However, as Gary Neville claimed, Phil Foden delivered while keeping his composure, regardless of how much pressure he must have had on his shoulders to step up to the plate on derby day.
