Lots said today - personal trouble, persistent injury, pain. Asked to stay away from England for injury and mental health reasons ?


Heard it was all mum/family related back in August.

His mum is a right fucking boiler - he seems a really nice lad whose family seem to have exploited him and fucked his career right up.

A real shame

Not sounding good is it, kid obviously needs some professional help, club should sort that out.

I didn't bother with the MuEN click link earlier this evening that indicated he's been carrying a ligament problem for some time.

Perhaps that is more likely than media pedalling of off field click bait shit that people are too easy to believe.

Yes his mum may not be the model mother but it seems press have chosen that as a route to beat him with.

Phil Foden has said he has "struggled" for Manchester City this season because of off-field issues and an ankle injury, and admits he may need to miss England's next games to prepare for the Club World Cup.

After a stellar 2023-24 campaign with 19 Premier League goals and multiple individual awards, Foden has netted just 10 times in all competitions this season and has been in and out of Pep Guardiola's starting lineup.

Foden said he suffered ankle ligament damage following a tackle from Manchester United's Casemiro in the April 6 derby which has affected him, while also disclosing there were a "lot of things going on off the pitch mentally."

"It's been difficult," the 24-year-old told various outlets, including The Guardian, about his season. "I picked up an ankle injury against United and it took time to heal before I could push myself back in training.

"A lot of people don't know what football players have to go through and play with. I've had a lot of ankle pain and played with it in the last couple of months.

"It's been a frustrating season. I've had a lot of things going on off the pitch mentally. Sometimes there's things in life bigger than football. This season I've struggled a little bit.

"Hopefully come next year I can get my head mentally right, get back where I left the season before because I know what I'm capable of doing and the quality I have."

He added: "The club has been so supportive. I can't thank them enough. I know if everything was OK [off the pitch] I'd definitely be better on the field. Sometimes things happen and you have to deal with it and move on."

Various outlets. I will ask charlotte who did the interview etc.

I wonder what's gone on "bigger than football"

Bigger than football will be family related I'd have thought. Either children or partner or parents or a combination

The facts of his demise are becoming clearer, physically carrying an ankle injury and family aggro. Not a good combo
