Tbf given how hes not pressuring WH for a move goes to show his priority is playing consistent football where he's adored.....Phillips is going to come here as a back-up option like Ake, he'll win a lot of medals with us but Rice WILL go to a big team and WILL win medals, and he'll be a leading star at those teams when he does instead of a bit part player
Would love Rice, but with Rodri and WH ludicrous valuation it's never happening
He'll join Chelsea next summer for around £70mil imo, which actually is a good deal as I think hes among the best in the world in his position....just Rodri is better for us
Just a flippant comment mate, just not sure Tuchel is enamored with him looking at last season.
Oh you meant a move down? Fair enough

Possible replacement for Phillips?
Leeds want Bayern Munich’s Marc Roca as they look to strengthen midfield
Leeds United have turned their attention to signing Bayern Munich’s Marc Roca after finalising a deal for Rasmus Kristensen. The Athletic understands that Leeds want to strengthen their midfield by bringing Roca to Elland Road, increasing the competition and support for England international...

Most likely, yes! Same position. Bayern are getting Graven so theyll dump him off. Hope this goes through.Leeds want Bayern Munich's Marc Roca as they look to strengthen midfield

I remember him saying how much he admired Fernandinho. Dinho really made that position look easy in his day, didn't he? Constantly receiving the ball on the half turn and making decisions quickly. Rice is no slouch but you can tell he's certainly a bit hesitant to receive the ball as often as needed for England, imo. I thought Bellingham was oddly negative on top of that as well. Grealish really gave them the spark they needed.

Surely that will make the budget higher

Can't see them paying the asking price
I think Phillips would be a great addition. He's certainly the right kind of character you want to be adding to the dressing room. It must have been a tough decision to go or stay in the end, if he is indeed coming. Think I said previously but it is a bit of a worry that he had to get his hamstring operated on but I'm sure the club has done their due diligence.
Didn't Aston Villa say the same thing when they bought Buendía last summer?

to be fair, they do absolutely need a midfielder regardless of whether phillips leaves. if he leaves i'd imagine they'd bring 2.

Me neither but I also thought Rodri was a flop and a poor signing, glad to have been proved wrong and if we sign the kid, I will be happy to be wrong again.
Yep, not a patch on Rodri and he can only play that No6 role. I can only imagine our being linked is a trick to convince United to blow a load of money on competition for the McFred duo.

Can play a 6, double pivot or CB.

I am a huge fan and I hope there is grain of truth we are actually going for him, although I doubt!
