Kalvin Phillips

Best of luck to him.

He's obviously well-liked in our dressing room and seems to have conducted himself professionally and with dignity throughout his time here despite it surely being very frustrating for him.

It hasn't worked out with us and we should look at what went wrong in the recruitment process. But I think in the right circumstances he'll do well.
 
And that he gets loads of minutes; gets his game back on track proving he is an international player who can adapt his game. Then he can come back & slot into our team.
Agree with your sentiments, as he seems a top bloke.
Think it will be an amazing turn around of events if Kalvin does return and gets a regular jersey though...
 
I mean it’s ‘Kaz’, nuttier than a bag of KP and as much a City fan as Gary Neville.

On Phillips I would like to think all parties involved are amicable - Guardiola has been admirably honest about the fact that he fucked up and bought a pup, and I’m sure in his heart Phillips knows it just hasn’t worked out through nobody’s fault.
Rat boy is more of a blue than yourself more like.

No way he’s coming back but hopefully he does well and gets a good transfer or a permanent move to West Ham if he settles in there.

Kalvin is a diamond in the rough but there have been glimpses of him with passes, speed and ball control.

All the best to him! Hope he scores and assists against all clubs (except City of course, given he won’t play per loan terms)
 
Glad for him

In the next 2 months he will playe more minutes than he played in the past 2 years.

Hopefully he will play exceptionally well , so the club can minimize the losses

Very happy with the signing, always rated him when he’s played for England.

For Declan rice

We have got ….
Edson Alvarez
James Ward-Prowse

Mohammed Kudus
 
What? Crazy to think we'll get anything close to that. For a start we don't want him that's not a strong bargaining position to begin with. Bit like selling an old motor if you really want to get rid then you'll accept way less than you'd like to just to see it gone. £25m and him off the books would be a result.
I did not want to downgrade him, but this is where we see how good our sales team are:)
 
We all saw Pep being patient and giving the time and minutes every squad member.
Kalvin didn’t get it. For me he is more Pep’s failure than his own. But let’s move on.
All the best Kalvin!
 
“There is no option to buy”

Weird. I can understand no obligation to buy but we clearly want to sell him.

Perhaps the BBC have that wrong.
We clearly want to sell him but an option to buy is not much use to the selling club as it is not an obligation and cannot be renegotiated upwards but can always be negotiated downwards.
