Foden makes his case as Silva&#8217;s replacement<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>When David Silva announced in the summer that he would be leaving Manchester City at the end of the season, immediately questions were raised on how the club would replace a player of his stature and ability. Would it require a new signing, or could someone already at the club step up? It&#8217;s still early doors but, against Burnley, Phil Foden staked his claim for the job.<\/p>\n<p>The 20-year-old started on the left wing as one of a number of changes from the team that beat Arsenal &#8211; although more on that later &#8211; joining Sergio Aguero and Riyad Mahrez in the front three, a role Silva has played before in his career, including for Man City although, like the Spaniard, Foden is a lot more comfortable in the middle.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Phil Foden&#39;s game by numbers vs. Burnley:<\/p>\n<p>100% take-ons completed (2\/2)<br \/>45 touches<br \/>3 shots<br \/>2 goals<br \/>1 chance created<br \/>1 pre-assist<\/p>\n<p>Magic. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/0V7KNLN7yZ\">pic.twitter.com\/0V7KNLN7yZ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Squawka (@Squawka) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Squawka\/status\/1275169047450210308?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 22, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>It was no surprise that Foden&#8217;s opening goal, his second in as many games, came with the Englishman in a central position. Receiving the ball on the edge of the Burnley area from a corner, Foden was calm under the perceived pressure of Josh Brownhill and hit a good low strike past Nick Pope. He also played a big role in David Silva&#8217;s goal from a central position, again from a corner, putting a lovely disguised ball into Bernardo Silva who, in turn, crossed to the Spaniard.<\/p>\n<p>Foden was also able to have a positive impact on the game from out wide, cutting infield and trying to test a Burnley defence that didn&#8217;t look up to the task of stopping him. And it&#8217;s from there that he got his second goal of the game, tapping in from close range after Bernardo Silva&#8217;s testing ball across the area, via Gabriel Jesus&#8217; foot.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1148436\" style=\"width: 2110px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1148436\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1148436\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22220834\/1148418_1148418_phil-foden-touch-map-burnley.png\" alt=\"Phil Foden's touch map vs Burnley\" width=\"2100\" height=\"1360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22220834\/1148418_1148418_phil-foden-touch-map-burnley.png 2100w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22220834\/1148418_1148418_phil-foden-touch-map-burnley-300x194.png 300w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22220834\/1148418_1148418_phil-foden-touch-map-burnley-1024x663.png 1024w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22220834\/1148418_1148418_phil-foden-touch-map-burnley-768x497.png 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22220834\/1148418_1148418_phil-foden-touch-map-burnley-1536x995.png 1536w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22220834\/1148418_1148418_phil-foden-touch-map-burnley-2048x1326.png 2048w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22220834\/1148418_1148418_phil-foden-touch-map-burnley-66x43.png 66w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2100px) 100vw, 2100px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1148436\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Phil Foden&#8217;s touch map vs Burnley<\/p><\/div>\n<h2><strong>2.\u00a0Defensive set up costs Burnley<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>It&#8217;s understandable that Burnley would set up at the Etihad to defend, after all, they had conceded 10 goals in their past three league matches against Man City. But while these tactics sometimes work, for Burnley it was their undoing.<\/p>\n<p>Starting the game with two very flat lines of four camped in the middle of their own half, Burnley invited the pressure from Man City&#8217;s attackers, trying to catch them on the counter at times. However, their very set up prevented them from doing so, with Jay Rodriguez and Matej Vydra isolated up front &#8211; like two men behind enemy lines with no hope of a return.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1148428\" style=\"width: 2110px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1148428\" class=\"wp-image-1148428 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22205358\/1148418_1148418_burnley-average-positions-first-half-man-city.png\" alt=\"Burnley's average positions in the first half vs Man City\" width=\"2100\" height=\"2360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22205358\/1148418_1148418_burnley-average-positions-first-half-man-city.png 2100w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22205358\/1148418_1148418_burnley-average-positions-first-half-man-city-267x300.png 267w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22205358\/1148418_1148418_burnley-average-positions-first-half-man-city-911x1024.png 911w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22205358\/1148418_1148418_burnley-average-positions-first-half-man-city-768x863.png 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22205358\/1148418_1148418_burnley-average-positions-first-half-man-city-1367x1536.png 1367w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22205358\/1148418_1148418_burnley-average-positions-first-half-man-city-1822x2048.png 1822w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22205358\/1148418_1148418_burnley-average-positions-first-half-man-city-58x65.png 58w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2100px) 100vw, 2100px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1148428\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Burnley&#8217;s average positions in the first half vs Man City<\/p><\/div>\n<p>When Burnley tried moving the ball forward through short passes, there was no one to do anything on the rare occasion they did make it into the Man City half. The Clarets either lost the ball in the middle of the pitch or were forced to go long, presenting the ball back to their hosts &#8211; for which Man City should be praised.<\/p>\n<p>Dwight McNeil had some bright moments on the left, trying to get crosses into the box, but again there was only Rodriguez and Vydra to aim for, both of whom were easily crowded out.<\/p>\n<p>Even when Burnley moved slightly more attack, with the gap between defence and midfield widening, as shown in the image above, the team were still too close together. It&#8217;s no surprise Burnley took until the 63rd minute to have their first shot, a free-kick from Dwight McNeil that was more suited to Twickenham than the Etihad.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>3. Man City&#8217;s strength in depth shines<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>There isn&#8217;t a squad more filled with stars than Man City&#8217;s and on Monday night it showed. During his time in the Premier League, Pep Guardiola has made a name for himself as being happy to rotate his teams, much to the chagrin of Fantasy Football players everywhere. And it was the same again on Monday.<\/p>\n<p>The former Barcelona manager made eight changes from the team that started their 3-0 win over Arsenal last weekend, including a completely new backline &#8211; with the exception of Ederson in goal. The changes not only allowed Man City to name a fresh XI still full of stars, but it also let them have one of the most ridiculous benches the Premier League may ever see.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"fi\" dir=\"ltr\">Man City&#39;s bench against Burnley:<\/p>\n<p>\u274d Scott Carson<br \/>\u274d Aymeric Laporte<br \/>\u274d Kyle Walker<br \/>\u274d Benjamin Mendy<br \/>\u274d \u0130lkay G\u00fcndo\u011fan<br \/>\u274d Kevin De Bruyne<br \/>\u274d Leroy San\u00e9<br \/>\u274d Raheem Sterling<br \/>\u274d Gabriel Jesus<\/p>\n<p>Damn.<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/zEsMnDJGuX\">https:\/\/t.co\/zEsMnDJGuX<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Play Squawka Selector for Free (@Squawka_Live) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Squawka_Live\/status\/1275130588018728960?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 22, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Thanks to clubs now being allowed nine players on the bench, something that has been criticised by certain managers as favouring the bigger teams, Man City were able to name a bench consisting of: Kyle Walker, Raheem Sterling, Ilkay Gundogan, Gabriel Jesus, Aymeric Laporte, Kevin De Bruyne, Leroy Sane, Benjamin Mendy and Scott Carson.<\/p>\n<p>Sergio Aguero picks up an injury just before half-time? No worries, just send on 10-goal Jesus. Need to freshen things up late on while still keeping full control of the game? On you go De Bruyne and Laporte.<\/p>\n<p>In stark contrast, Burnley were only able to name seven substitutes on their bench, two of which were goalkeepers and five without a first-team appearance.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>4. Mahrez proves City can manage without Sane<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Man City fans were rocked last week as it was announced that Leroy Sane would not be signing a new contract, meaning he would either leave this summer for a fee or next year for free.<\/p>\n<p>Sane hadn&#8217;t been involved in the league this season prior to Monday, after picking up a serious knee injury in the Community Shield in August, but there was excitement surrounding his return. The German, still only 24, is one of the most exciting talents in Europe right now and the hopes were that he would fulfil his potential at Man City amid links to Bayern Munich.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">10 &#8211; Riyad Mahrez has now scored 10+ goals in five successive campaigns in all competitions (11 goals).

Yes, the Algerian does not have the years left that Sane does, but he is still performing at his best and gave Burnley&#8217;s left flank a night of horror.<\/p>\n<p>Always ready to attack, whether it be through a pacy counter, or with his neat footwork, Mahrez scored Man City&#8217;s second of the night with a wonderful strike. Capping off a quick counter, following Fernandinho&#8217;s long ball, Mahrez turned Charlie Taylor inside and out before powerfully beating Pope in the Burnley goal. His second strike was slightly more straightforward, from the penalty spot, but still came with the added pressure given Man City&#8217;s record this season. Pope will have been closer to stopping it than Mahrez would have wanted, but it went in, and gave City a big cushion going into half-time.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1148429\" style=\"width: 2044px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1148429\" class=\"wp-image-1148429 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22214526\/1148418_1148418_man-city-premier-league-penalties-2019-20.png\" alt=\"Man City's Premier League penalties in 2019\/20\" width=\"2034\" height=\"1250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22214526\/1148418_1148418_man-city-premier-league-penalties-2019-20.png 2034w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22214526\/1148418_1148418_man-city-premier-league-penalties-2019-20-300x184.png 300w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22214526\/1148418_1148418_man-city-premier-league-penalties-2019-20-1024x629.png 1024w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22214526\/1148418_1148418_man-city-premier-league-penalties-2019-20-768x472.png 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22214526\/1148418_1148418_man-city-premier-league-penalties-2019-20-1536x944.png 1536w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2020\/06\/22214526\/1148418_1148418_man-city-premier-league-penalties-2019-20-66x41.png 66w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2034px) 100vw, 2034px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1148429\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Man City&#8217;s Premier League penalties in 2019\/20<\/p><\/div>\n<h2><strong>5.
