4 | Kalvin Phillips - 2022/23 Performances

[yankblue]

Weird situation. Not sure Pep and Txiki were on the same page.

 

[paulchapo]

Weird situation with him. If he's fit why isn't he getting any playing time?

Because he isn’t good enough - be gone in the summer.

 

[Goldust]

The last 2 games would have been ideal to throw him in, this is a guy who played in a euro final not long ago. It was obvious last night they was going to score, only pep doesn’t see it, just waits for the obvious.

Why wpuld we spend 40 million on him, then proceed to never give the fella a chance

They see it in training I am sure. Like I said he will be off.

 

[FantasyIreland]

Send him back to Leeds and swap for Gnoto.

 

[Lavinda Past]

Send him back to Leeds and swap for Gnoto.

Based on past deals, Txiki would probably end up paying £60m plus Phillips for Gnoto and then loan him to Melbourne City for 18 months.

The daft thing is, he'll probably be one of the first on the team sheet for the next England match.

 

[Petethemancinleeds]

If he doesnt start v Bristol City something is truely wrong, likewise if picked if he doesnt make a mark his next game could be in an Everton, Villa or West Ham shirt , with hindsight should have stayed at Leeds and we could have spent the money on luring Rory Delap out of retirement to just throw the ball to Erling!

 

[wolviedinho]

Seriously think we need to stop buying English players. It’s a strategy the club seems to want. 3 or 4 maybe but we seem intent on becoming city England. It’s no wonder the flair has gone.

 

[birchwoodgingerste]

His form has been great hasn't lost in training on orange bibs !:))

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Every day in training is a chance for him to show something. He obviously isn’t.

 

[ElMago_DSilva]

Bin him off in the summer.

He isn't good enough for City. Never was good enough for City and he's far too injury prone.

We went from Fernandinho to this guy. A massive, massive drop off.

Rodri is going to be burned into the ground because we don't have an adequate backup.

The fact Pep has questioned his lack of professionalism and the fact he couldn't even be bothered to turn up to his unveiling when we signed him suggests he's just not a good fit for us.

A massive mistake buying him. Never wanted him anyway.

 

[Keeper!]

I think Tommy Doyle is good enough to be back up now

Light years off our levels, a decent Championship player for sure but at this time that's his level.

 

[Blue and true]

Weird situation with him. If he's fit why isn't he getting any playing time?

Because he's dogshit.

 

[toffee balls]

KP is not on his own.

KP
Alvarez
Gomez
Palmer
and now Rico Lewis all taking up valuable squad positions and not being utilised.

This is a strange year , no doubt.

 

[Lavinda Past]

Light years off our levels, a decent Championship player for sure but at this time that's his level.

That sums up the majority of Bielsa's squad at Leeds.

Flattered to deceive in the Championship and found out quite quickly at the higher level.

Txiki was robbed.

 

[Goater=Legend]

We know a lot of players take a year to settle in to the way we play but they was actually playing and starting matches in their first season the issue with Phillips is he isnt getting any game time so its worrying whats going on.

Yea because stones, Walker, Sterling, foden, Barry…. were/ all terrible. They’ve all been integral to our league winning sides

We’ve also won the league 4 out of the last 5 years with those English players. Sounds like you just don’t like English players
