MOTD2 pundit Danny Murphy explains why Manchester City forward Phil Foden's match-winning display in Sunday's Manchester derby was far from a one-off.
Phil Foden did not just score two goals to win Sunday's Manchester derby, he grabbed the whole game by the scruff of the neck.
There is a debate about where he should play for City and England - but it really doesn't matter because he is so comfortable across the line, on the left or right or as a number 10 in Pep Guardiola's side behind Erling Haaland when Kevin de Bruyne is out. Foden has already started more Premier League games this season than any other campaign and he seems to be someone who Pep trusts because he knows he is going to be a source of goals, wherever he plays.
Having Casemiro and Kobbie Mainoo sitting, with Scott McTominay just ahead of them and Bruno Fernandes playing as a false nine, meant they could use the pace of Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho out wide. The way City come forward is just relentless and they did to United what they do to most teams they face, which is wear you down with their patience, and also their quick play and technical ability that just means they find a way through in the end.
