His two goals in the derby decider are enough to rank United as his favorite opponent, along with Brighton.
Foden has scored six goals in nine matches, exactly what he has scored against his team Roberto De Jerbi. In fact, in last year’s match between the two Manchester clubs, he also scored the first hat-trick of his career, in a game in which the “citizens” won 6-3.
The year is shaping up wonderfully for the young Englishman, who has already broken his personal goalscoring record and is expected to raise his numbers even further in the remaining matches.
