That could potentially throw a spanner in the works for them, any knock to Foden for 3 or 4 weeks would be the thing that would be most likely to upset their apple cart, he's their main man, above all the others, gets crucial goals and assists, but most of all, he is excellent and relentless in the press and counter pressing, and when he doesn't play, the rest of them aren't anywhere near the same levels at it as he's the one who drives it.
Guardiola has blatantly adopted our system as it worked at its best in 19-20, no question about it, a big difference for them is that they go more direct a lot more frequently when it's on, use switches a lot more, but most of all, they are A LOT better without the ball than they were up until last season, and Foden is a massive part of that for them
