Getty Images SportWHAT FODEN SAID
Speaking to TNT Sports' Sign Up: Into Football, Foden said: “I would put it [struggling this season] down to a number of things.
"Obviously we have had a lot of injuries, all of the stuff we have won in the past has been so demanding on the body. You cannot stay at the top forever, sometimes there are downs in life.
“Not much needs to change. Just believe in the manager, try keep players fit which is important because we have had a lot of injuries, team spirit, be motivated to try and go and do it again and create a great surrounding – I feel that is all we need to do and we should be back.”

The England international also opened up on his own struggles for form being the biggest lessons of his career so far. Foden added: “I feel like this season, even though we have not won [as much], I have learnt the most from it. It just shows how much you have to put in to win these trophies and the level that is set to win.
“It’s a learning curve for me this season and next season, hopefully, we can be back to our best and play the way that we used to.”
