To some people, their job just comes naturally. They don’t need a period of adaptation, they don’t need people to take easy on them – they just get on with their duty and do a stellar job at that. Manchester City hero Kevin De Bruyne says that Phil Foden is one of those people.Only Riyad Mahrez (32) and Kevin De Bruyne (27) have more G/A for Man City this season in all competitions than Phil Foden (24). Remember, this is a “bad” season for Phil Foden pic.twitter.com/nxQOdn3yt8— Zilla🐉🇺🇸⚡️ (@Cityzilla) May 1, 2022 In a conversation published on City’s website, the Belgian heaped praise on the little wingers, claiming that his consistency and ability make him more than just a talented kid who’s broken into the first-team setup.”He’s been amazing. I have seen him from a little boy with massive potential. Whenever you come up to the first team, you are a bit shy. It takes time and playing time to gel, but Phil has been very comfortable in the past two years. You see the difference in the way he plays. He doesn’t play with ups and downs – he does what he needs for this team.”##EDITORS_CHOICE##Foden’s maturity is sometimes hard to comprehend. It’s easy to forget that he’s still only 21 years old. It now seems that he’s been playing for the Premier League champions for ages – and he never looked out of place, even when he was only starting. De Bruyne couldn’t be more impressed with his young teammate.”He isn’t a young talent anymore – he is one of the guys now. It’s a big step, but everyone looks to him to make a difference because he can. He’s proven he can do that many times, and he will do it in the future. I’m hoping he can do the same in years to come.”Wednesday, 18.00: (2.81) Baroka (2.70) Golden Arrows (2.90)The midfield pair will have to be on top of their game on Wednesday night at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu, but also until the end of the season as the Premier League title race promises to go down the wire.UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE – SEMIFINALSecond legTuesday22.00: (5.00) Villarreal (3.70) Liverpool (1.80)Wednesday22.00: (3.15) Real Madrid (3.55) Man City (2.20)***odds are subject to change
