Ammon News - Phil Foden lauded Manchester City's 6-0 win at Ipswich as their 'best performance of the season'.

The 24-year-old scored a second consecutive brace, with Mateo Kovacic, Jeremy Doku, Erling Haaland and James McAtee also netting at Portman Road.

The win over Kieran McKenna's side leaves City in fourth spot after they leapfrogged Newcastle on goal difference.

He told Sky Sports: 'Probably the best (performance) this season, in terms of all-round play. Keeping possession at important times and we defended well. One of our best performances this year.

'We're building momentum, keeping players fit is important. I put it down to people being in better shape and the team is bonding better.

'When we score we're not rushing it. We're keeping possession and build-up play was important today.'

After a difficult start to the season, Foden now has six league goals in 17, with four of those coming in his last two matches.

The double at Ipswich also took his the winger's career tally to 100 and he is hopeful of getting more after his turn in form.

'It's good to see me back scoring goals with a smile on my face and enjoying football. I want to keep going and adding to that. You never know what can happen. The aim is to stay in the top four,' Foden added.

'I've had a few goals and want to keep going, adding. It's all seemed to change for me. I've been a bit unlucky before, now scoring with a few chances. If I can keep arriving in the box, these players will keep finding me. I'm delighted.'

City will seek to continue their momentum when they take on PSG in a crucial Champions League showdown in the French capital on Tuesday night. Daily Mail
