Players 'comfortable' under Maresca methods - Foden

[Getty Images] Manchester City midfielder Phil Foden says the players are "very comfortable" with new manager Enzo Maresca's methods in training. City landed in Seoul, South Korea on Tuesday, where they will play two further friendly matches this week following six days in Hong Kong. Asked what has been different in training, Foden said: "It's very similar to how we play under Pep, but there's obviously still things that are a little bit different. "I don't want to give too much away, but the defending is a little bit different, how we set up. We have different ideas of playing out from the back, a variety of things on the ball. "There are different things, but the lads are very comfortable because we want to build from the back and try and create." Foden recently signed a new four-year deal to keep him a City until 2030 and the 26-year-old took the captain's armband in Saturday's friendly against Inter Milan. Asked about being a leader in the group, Foden said: "I have to be really. I have been at the club for so long, I am one of the longest here so this season I have to be one of the leaders, one of the captains. "I'm looking forward to that new responsibility and trying to take leadership."
