Watch it here…

While his two goals weren’t bad, either…

However, the best tweet came from Foden’s Man City teammate Benjamin Mendy.

The left-back tweeted: “Phil @PhilFoden drug test needed after that game 😂😂 how good is my bro !!! 😱 #Shark“

He was then asked how good Foden could become in the future.

“Boy got something 🔥“ he replied.

You don’t need to be the next Guardiola to tell that statement is bang on the money.
