Manchester City fans have greeted today's team selection against Sheffield United with puzzlement after Phil Foden was dropped to the bench.
Foden was the star performer for City last weekend in their narrow 1-0 victory over Newcastle United. However, reports on social media claimed this week the Stockport-born midfielder could miss out at Bramall Lane.
The midfielder did make the squad for the game against the Blades but to many people's surprise, City have chosen to start him on the bench.
Instead, the Blues have opted to bring back Bernardo Silva into the midfield with an attacking trio of Julian Alvarez, Jack Grealish and Erling Haaland.
