LONDON (Reuters) - The biggest compliment that could be paid to Phil Foden is that he has stepped into the boots of Spanish wizard David Silva at Manchester City and assumed the role of Pep Guardiola's creative spark with apparent ease.

For a player who does not even turn 21 until the end of the month that is some achievement, given the mercurial Silva's standing at City and across the world.
