MANCHESTER CITY treated their supporters to a rare thimble of jeopardy last night.<\/p>\n
The Champions League holders went 2-0 down to RB Leipzig at the Etihad via Lois Openda's brace to briefly introduce the possibility that they might not top Group G.<\/p>\n
Whether any of the home fans were duped is another matter as there was a sense of inevitability about the comeback from Pep Guardiola's side, who ended up 3-2 winners to ensure a perfect start of five wins from five European games this season.<\/p>\n
CLICK HERE TO PLAY SCORE PREDICTOR AHEAD OF THIS WEEKEND'S ACTION – SOMEBODY MUST WIN A \u00a3500 AMAZON GIFT CARD!<\/strong><\/p>\n The star of the show was Phil Foden (\u00a34.9m).<\/p>\n City's homegrown hero was credited with two assists, for Erling Haaland's (\u00a37.9m) obligatory goal and Julian Alvarez's (\u00a34.2m) winner, while also swooping three bonus points.<\/p>\n Sandwiched in between his assists was a neat goal of his own, the latest display of his deft footwork.<\/p>\n When all was said and done, Foden took the Bundesliga outfit for 17 Dream Team points, his best single-game return of the campaign so far.<\/p>\n Added to the six he earned against Liverpool at the weekend, the 23-year-old finishes Gameweek 13 having plundered 23 points – the most among all assets at the time of writing.<\/p>\n Naturally, this impressive haul has catapulted him up the Dream Team rankings, he's now second among midfielders having moved to 128 points overall, eight short of Bukayo Saka (\u00a36.5m).<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n In fact, Foden is now the fourth-best performer among all players taking overtaken the likes of Kieran Trippier (\u00a35.2m), Ollie Watkins (\u00a34.8m) and Jarrod Bowen (\u00a35.3m) this week.<\/p>\n The latter is the only midfield asset to have scored more goals than Foden at this stage – West Ham's top scorer has nine in all competitions to his compatriot's six.<\/p>\n Bowen and Foden are level with Bruno Fernandes (\u00a35.7m) on 18 shots on target each, the joint-most among midfielders right now.<\/p>\n The secret to Foden's continued success is he's so much more than just a goal threat.<\/p>\n Only four assets in his position have created more big chances (seven) and only three have registered more than his six assists – he's a top-tier creator.<\/p>\n The so-called 'Stockport Iniesta' is also one of the most passionate bonus point collectors.<\/p>\n At this juncture, only Jeremy Doku (\u00a34.2m) and James Ward-Prowse (\u00a34.4m) have more and the leading pair are just one ahead on 26 to Foden's 25.<\/p>\n With an ownership of 28%, Foden is currently the second-most selected midfielder in the game but his popularity is likely to increase further after a sparkling spell of form.<\/p>\n He's notched 61 points in six outings across the last four Gameweeks!<\/p>\n Get \u00a330 in free bets when you bet \u00a310 – CLAIM HERE<\/strong><\/p>\n 18+ New customers only.
