Former Manchester City captain Andy Morrison has hailed Phil Foden as a 'generational talent'.

The 21-year-old has established himself as an important player in Pep Guardiola's side and started for England in the friendly win over Switzerland over the weekend.

And Morrison thinks Foden has the potential to become one of the world's best players.

"He's a generational talent. He receives balls in positions that remind me of Xavi and Iniesta," Morrison told the club's website.

"It's in the DNA of the Club for them to also work incredibly hard and nobody more than Foden. He starts the presses, and this is coming from a young lad.

"His football brain is so sharp and bright that he starts everything from behind. The turnover starts from his initial press - it's a unique talent.

"I'm not saying anything that hasn't been said about him already."
