LONDON (Reuters) - Phil Foden's first Premier League start on Sunday lasted less than an hour but the 19-year-old felt that playing alongside an inspired Kevin De Bruyne provided an invaluable lesson that can only help him in his quest to become a Manchester City regular.

Foden acquitted himself well on the left-hand side of City's midfield although his 56-minute contribution was overshadowed by De Bruyne, who scored two sublime goals and created another for Raheem Sterling in the 3-0 win at Arsenal.
