Pep Guardiola Admits 'Guilt' Over Not Playing England Starlet in Fulham Demolition

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has admitted that he feels guilty about not playing Phil Foden in his team's 3-0 victory over Fulham on Saturday.

The Citizens opened the scoring with only 90 seconds on the clock and from that point on it was a stroll in the park for the Premier League champions. Speaking after the easy win over the Cottagers, Guardiola was quoted by Sky Sports admitting that he felt guilty for failing to bring on Foden in the match.

If Phil Foden is not good enough to be introduced even after being 3-0 up with 43 mins remaining then there's no point keeping him in the matchday squad and better send him on loan.
