Phil Foden was in fine form for Manchester City at the weekend
A routine win over Nottingham Forest tightened Manchester City’s grip at the top of the Premier League.
Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur also drew, meaning they have opened up a five-point gap on last season’s challengers. However, a resurgent Liverpool team look as though they could mount a title tilt after brushing aside West Ham United at Anfield.
Attention now turns to the Carabao Cup – the only trophy that eluded City in 2022-23 – as Pep Guardiola and Co travel to Newcastle United. Here are your Man City headlines for Monday, September 25.
Foden outlines area to improve
Phil Foden admitted he’s been ‘frustrated’ by his lack of luck in front of goal so far this season and is looking to improve his output. Though he’s still been picking up assists, the strike was only Foden’s first goal of the campaign after nine matches in all competitions, a surprisingly low return for a player who netted 15 times last season.
Foden has been disappointed with his lack of goals and is hoping they begin to flow now he’s broken his duck. He admitted: “I’ve been on a little goal drought this year and I see myself as a goal scorer, so I’ve been a bit frustrated. I try to keep making the runs and getting in the right areas. Today it came off and I was delighted with the finish.”
