Pep Guardiola has already told Man City starlet Phil Foden how to achieve England ambition

While Erling Haaland has, understandably, stolen the Manchester City headlines so far this season, his teammate Phil Foden has also enjoyed a productive campaign so far. The 22-year-old has registered eight goals and three assists in 20 appearances in all competitions - including a hat-trick against Manchester United.

He has already formed a solid relationship with star striker Haaland, and the City duo are only going to get better under the management of Pep Guardiola. Foden was in a rich vein of form prior to the pause in the domestic season ahead of the upcoming tournament in Qatar, and the Englishman is desperate to replicate his Blues showings when he represents his country at his first-ever World Cup.

The City attacker has made 18 appearances for Gareth Southgate's side, registering two goals and six assists. He was part of the side that reached the Euros final last summer, but is planning on playing an even bigger role over the coming weeks.
