Phil Foden has broken his silence after he was subjected to vile chants during Sunday’s 0-0 draw in the Manchester derby.
Foden, 24, started for Manchester City against their arch-rivals Manchester United in what proved to be a poor spectacle at Old Trafford.
But it was not the action on the pitch that was a talking point after the match.

In his post-match press conference City boss Pep Guardiola condemned the chants, he said: “Lack of class. But it’s not United, it’s the people, you know? We are so exposed, people who are on the screen in world football – managers, owners, and football players especially. Honestly, I don’t understand the mind of the people involving the mum of Phil, it’s a lack of integrity, class, and they should be ashamed.”
Guardiola added: “When the team is not playing the level and standards we had, everyone looks not what we were.
