Pep Guardiola says Phil Foden is special, and the teenager proved it by scoring the winning goal for Manchester City against Tottenham at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday. The Manchester City coach is used to the accusation that he has held the midfielder back. I see him every day in the training sessions and he has something special, this player, something special. He was at the level to be a Manchester City player, and it is not easy to be in that team." It was a good decision because we won, but Phil would have remained the same special player he is [if we hadn't].
