Phil Foden has addressed concerns about his performance in England’s narrow 1-0 victory over Serbia at Euro 2024, asserting his confidence in retaining his place in the starting lineup.
Despite a quieter outing on the left flank, Foden highlighted his growing rapport with Jude Bellingham, who secured the win with a crucial goal from midfield.
As the recipient of the Premier League Player of the Year award following an outstanding season with Manchester City, Foden acknowledged the need for improvement but expressed optimism about his partnership with Bellingham ahead of their upcoming clash against Denmark.
“Jude is an incredible talent,” Foden remarked. “He’s not only skilled but also shows great maturity and leadership qualities.
Our understanding on the pitch is developing, and I believe it will only get stronger. He brings a lot to our team, and I enjoy playing alongside him.”
Foden’s comments reflect his determination to contribute effectively to England’s campaign, emphasizing the positive trajectory of his collaboration with Bellingham.
With their next match approaching, both players will aim to build on their performance and further solidify their roles in the team’s strategy at Euro 2024.
