EPL: He’s unbelievable – Guardiola names best player in Premier League after City beat Man Utd

Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, has named Phil Foden as the best player in the Premier League at the moment.

Guardiola said the England international is unbelievable because he can do a lot of things on the pitch of play.

Foden scored a brace in the 3-1 Premier League win over Manchester United at the Etihad on Sunday.

“He can play middle, right, make moments and cut inside, play in the left, scoring from the left. What can I say? He is the best player in the Premier League right now for the amount of things he does. Unbelievable,” Guardiola told the BBC (via The Daily Mail).

“It is the amount of games he is playing. He was always a talented player, but, now, he is more mature and understands more the game, especially defensively. He loves football. He lives for football.

“He is a joy, and his work ethic is unbelievable.”

Foden has scored 18 goals and provided 10 assists in 40 games across all competitions for Guardiola’s side this term.
