UCL: He’s now world class – Thierry Henry hails Man City star

Arsenal legend, Thierry Henry has hailed Manchester City star Phil Foden describing him as a ‘world class’ player at the moment.

Henry spoke as Foden scored a superb goal in Man City’s UEFA Champions League quarter-final first leg 3-3 draw against Real Madrid on Tuesday night.

He said the England international puts Pep Guardiola’s side on his shoulder when the likes of Erling Haaland and Kevin de Bruyne are not performing.

“What I would say about Phil Foden this year is that when Erling Haaland is not there or Kevin de bruyne is injured, now he puts this team on his shoulders.” Henry said during the match commentary (via CBS).

“Now we can start talking world class because you put your team on your shoulders this guy is now world class.
