Phil Foden received a red card during the Manchester derby at Old Trafford, which means he is likely to face a suspension lasting up to a month. His expulsion occurred early in the match after a foul on Bruno Fernandes, prompting Manchester City to play with ten men. Despite his absence, City secured a victory under new manager Enzo Maresca. Foden will miss key matches, including a Carabao Cup tie against Norwich and several Premier League games against Sunderland and Liverpool, along with the upcoming international fixtures. His performance has drawn criticism, and he has not scored in over 35 outings.
