I think he is very talented in terms of dribbling and ball control but in recent times whenever former footballers are asked about future balon d or contenders,his name is always mentioned but he is 23 years of age now and still he is not a starter for man City ,his best position is up for debate(rw or advanced 8)and while he has put in some good performances for city I have not seen enough from him to say he will be a future balon d or contender consistently. He seems like Bernardo Silva level player to me which is a very good player but not a balon d or contender(consistently) player.He also resembles him in style quite a bit.
He’s still a little raw, but has bags of talent & I see him bettering with age.
Even as an Arsenal supporter, I would say Foden has more to his game than Saka “overall” but Saka has scored more goals, overall, but does has played more minutes & doesn’t have any real competition for team selection unlike Foden, although he has been featuring a lot more this season!
