Phil Foden has backed himself to add goals and assists to Gareth Southgate\u2019s England side in the build-up to Euro 2024.<\/p>\n

The Manchester City forward collected his 30th cap in Friday\u2019s drab 2-0 win over Malta as England all-but secured their place as top seeds for next summer\u2019s finals.<\/p>\n

It was Foden\u2019s cross that Malta defender Enrico Pepe inadvertently diverted past his own goalkeeper to open the scoring as England toiled at Wembley.<\/p>\n

Harry Kane doubled the lead in the second half, finishing off a flowing team move in which Foden was an integral part.<\/p>\n

The 23-year-old has scored just four goals since making his debut in 2020 and a place in Southgate\u2019s starting XI is still not guaranteed, with Arsenal\u2019s Bukayo Saka often preferred on the right side of the attack.<\/p>\n

\u201cI always want more for myself, I think I can add goals to this team \u2013 and assists,\u201d Foden told beIN Sports.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was involved in both of the goals (against Malta), maybe we weren\u2019t at our best but we got the job done in the end and that\u2019s the most important thing.<\/p>\n

\n

I always want more for myself, I think I can add goals to this team and assists<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cI\u2019m enjoying my football a lot at the moment, I\u2019m expressing myself, I\u2019m playing really well. So yeah, I need to keep that up, keep pushing myself to score more and get assists.\u201d<\/p>\n

With Foden and Saka competing for a place on the right, 62-goal skipper Kane leading the line and the likes of Marcus Rashford and Jack Grealish also pushing to start games, Southgate has an embarrassment of riches in attacking positions.<\/p>\n

The fact Chelsea\u2019s Raheem Sterling has failed to get back into the squad since the World Cup in Qatar only proves how deep the options are for the national team \u2013 although his Blues team-mate Cole Palmer is now involved.<\/p>\n

The 21-year-old joined Chelsea from Manchester City in the summer, where Foden had seen what he could offer at close quarters.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s so relaxed on the pitch,\u201d Foden said of Palmer.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe looks like he\u2019s been there for years and he\u2019s such a young lad with tremendous quality and is someone I know really well.<\/p>\n

\u201cI tried to help him as much as I could at City when he was coming up and he is at Chelsea now and doing really well so I\u2019m delighted for him to get his debut.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt just shows that if you work hard through the academy, it comes through so I\u2019m really delighted for him.\u201d<\/p>\n
