""There has been a lot of talk. It's impossible [not to see it]. "Everything I see at the moment is negative, but that's the world we live in.

""We have to keep going, and we have to keep him going, we need him so much. This is the Phil we need. "We are going to help him as much as we can to make him as good as he was.""
Foden opened the scoring with an 18th-minute header as Manchester City beat Manchester United 3-0 at the Etihad, with Erling Haaland adding a second-half brace. Foden has seven Premier League goals in Manchester derbies, behind Haaland, Wayne Rooney and Sergio Aguero on eight. The victory followed back-to-back defeats to Tottenham and Brighton and marked Foden's first Premier League goal since 25 January. Foden featured only 15 minutes across City's first three 2025-26 games and endured a difficult 2024-25 campaign after winning Player of the Season in 2023-24. Foden recorded 29 goal involvements in 2023-24 and nine last season. City paid tribute to Ricky Hatton, and Foden dedicated the win to him and his family.
