Kalvin Phillips

I understand what you mean, but I really don't have much sympathy for a player who was poorly advised and/or made a bad decision to accept a £7m a year salary on a 5-year contract.

Having not asked for a move, he'll leave City with a huge payoff, a fistful of undeserved medals, get a signing on payment from his new club, and probably in the region of £3m / £4m a year in wages for 3 seasons.

Harsh I know, but I doubt he'll lose any sleep.

You’ve got to feel for him, it’s like marrying miss world and sleeping in the spare room

Everytime I see Kalvin in videos on the OS I feel so bad for him. He looks very low in confidence, there's a sadness in his eyes.
And I don't lame him, nor us, for that. Sometimes it just doesn't work out, such is life, and I want nothing but success for the lad, but that will probably not be here with us.

All I see is someone living in a dream he can't quite believe and with a big, stupid grin of his face.

And on the pitch I see a player totally out of his depth.

I'd like to believe that he genuinely thinks that he can establish himself as a useful squad member but surely there has to be a point where he decides that it is not going to happen. If the dippers or Bayern come in for him and offer him a chance of a starting place and a comparable contract then surely he would leave?

Maybe he is happy for one more season to stick around? He settled into club probably feels right home has few mates facilitates are fantastic treated so well, I can't blame him one bit...
 
I hope it's not another Danny Mills scenario :-(

I like the lad but for his career he should be looking for where he will play!
Surely it's not all down to a pay cheque?

"Dont want him to get success if he goes to liverpool"

Parody at it's finest!!

I would love to see him there, my word it would make my day, they take over his contract and give us our money back, does it get any better?
 
I like Kalvin he comes across as a good personality, He’s very close to his family in Leeds.

I do wonder if he’s become comfortable just being a squad member big wages long contract, trophies and distance to Leeds. I might be doing him an injustice but I’m wondering if ‘fighting for my place’ is code for I’m happy even though I know I’m not getting a chance type scenario.
