In the third round of the League Cup, Manchester City defeated Huddersfield 2-0 and successfully advanced. In this game, Foden scored his first record for Manchester City. After the game, the team coach Guardiola talked about related topics about the game.

Regarding whether Foden is happy in the middle

Fudon is absolutely happy, I think his performance near the penalty area is perfect. He can do something unique when he plays freely and gets close to the penalty area, and we all know that. Foden was really threatening when he played behind the striker.

We have seen Foden's outstanding performance against Arsenal, Manchester United and Naples. When the team performs better overall, every player can reach their potential, but it's not just today.

About 9 adjustments to the starting lineup

Six youth training camp players entered the starting lineup today, and two substitutes appeared. The Husky brothers' father and mother will definitely be proud of their children, which is really cool.

About Calvin Phillips

Yesterday Phillips had a child Harry Phillips, who came from London this morning and is now back to London to accompany his wife and children. Of course, he came back and played for a few minutes, but we weren't sure if he could play before, but the game was always under our control.
