Phil Foden hits back at Man City criticism with clear double response after Liverpool

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Phil Foden has reminded everyone of the trophies Manchester City have won over recent years amid the team's current run of results.

Sunday's defeat to Liverpool at Anfield meant they have gone seven matches without a win across all competitions, losing six of those games.

As such, they sit fifth in the Premier League table, 11 points behind Arne Slot's side, and trail them by seven points in the Champions League league phase standings.

Being 17th placed in the latter means they are currently on course to be unseeded in the knockout phase play-offs. However, they are only two points adrift of the top eight teams, who will automatically advance to the round of 16.
