‘Wow’… Oscar Bobb left stunned by just how good 23-year-old Man City player was against Copenhagen

Oscar Bobb congratulated Phil Foden after his impeccable display for Manchester City in their 3-1 victory against Copenhagen on Tuesday.

 

 

The Norwegian international watched from the sidelines as City controlled proceedings at the Parken Stadium.

 

At one point, it seemed like Pep Guardiola was set to bring Oscar Bobb on to replace the treble-winner, who was caught by an aggressive tackle in the first half.

 

However, Foden battled on and put in a performance in the first leg of the Champions League Round of 16 that merits all the plaudits in the world.

Rio Ferdinand emphasised how much of a key role the 23-year-old plays in this Sky Blues side in terms of the goals and assists he contributes as well as how he helps the team sustain their rhythm during games.

 

Nedum Onuoha also hailed the Englishman’s performance as “brilliant” while placing emphasis on the fact that he had put in such a wondrous display from the wing instead of his natural position in midfield.

As Manchester City technician Phil Foden took to Instagram to celebrate his side’s win against Copenhagen, Oscar Bobb commented, “Wow” with a starry-eyed emoji.

 

The 20-year-old must have been inspired watching Phil Foden run the show

Witnessing Phil Foden have his say against Copenhagen, Oscar Bobb perhaps would have been inspired by watching his Manchester City teammate.

 

 

At 23 years of age, Foden is only three years older than Bobb and he is already one of his boyhood club’s go-to men in a massive Champions League knockout fixture.

 

In three years’ time, the Oslo-born midfielder must also be hoping that he too becomes a regular starter and becomes one of City’s most vital performers, regardless of the stage he is playing at.

 

It may seem a faraway goal but then again, doubt Oscar Bobb at your own peril.

 

 

Ferdi Kadioglu, a 24-year-old utility player for Fenerbahce, is a target for Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola.

 

 

Manchester City are constantly searching for players to add to their squad and support them in continuing to rule both Europe and England, according to a report by Fotomac.

 

Pep Guardiola has been impressed with youngster Ferdi Kadioglu, and the Spanish manager plans to include him in his squad for next season.

 

For the Turkish team, the 24-year-old full-back has appeared in 181 games and contributed to 36 goals. In addition to being an incredible left-back, the Turkish international can also play as a right-back or right winger.

 

When Kadioglu was still a teenager, he signed for Fenerbahce in the summer of 2018. The Turkish team made an agreement to sign him because they saw potential in him. Since making the move, he has only become stronger.

 

 

Throughout the current season, he has been in incredible form. He has been a major contributor to their successful campaign as they aim to win the Super Liga. In his 33 appearances this season, he has been a pillar of the defense and has contributed to five goals. Several clubs have taken notice of his versatile and impressive performances.

 

Man City believe Kadioglu can work his way into the system of their manager. Guardiola plans to recruit a full-back before the new season because he’s had to frequently start one of his centre-backs as the left back. They will thus probably try to sign the defender, who is valued at €20 million, in the summer.

 

Even though he would still have two years remaining on his contract once the season ends, City have the resources enough to entice him to leave if their manager is truly interested in having him join the team.
