He has given up. He needs counselling more than anything. Then he needs a fitness coach. I hope he helps himself or goes find another profession.
We need rid asap.
Perhaps. He should have gone then in the summer or winter transfer windows. But I suspect he knows that takes working hard to impress a new boss and he has no stomach for that.Looks a player that has cashed in on his career.
If he carries on he will end up cruising through his career and be in league 1 before he knows it.
I could be wrong, but I am of the opinion the minute he trained with City he questioned everything about his ability and realised he was a million miles away from being on the level of some of the City lads. That, in my opinion, crushed his confidence.
Seriously worried about his mental health.
Won't be the first to fail to make the step up after a big move, but can't remember many players that seem to forget how to play the game
he has no stomach
I completely agree, he's playing like he's in a daze and his confidence seems totally shot.
I think he needs a complete break to then build his fitness and confidence back up.
Youtube video after today's game of him giving the middle finger to someone who said he's useless:
And probably one with only one hump.I doubt they'd offer us cash. They might offer a knackered flee ridden camel for him if we're lucky.
Its not the first time, these things happen even in our modern times. Rodwell, Sinclair, Bony. Nobody got harmed by it, Phillips will be fineThe City scouts and the people at the club who agreed to sign him need a bollocking. £45mill wasted.

That perfectly encapsulated what a pathetic small time spineless **** he is.
Rather than doing what all successful players do and ignoring the (in this case very mild) criticism that they get as something that comes with the territory, he reacts to it in a classless, juvenile and cowardly way.
I wish him nothing but misfortune
I wish him misfortune based on his whole persona really.Did he shag your missus?
Imagine wishing someome nothing but misfortune just because they reacted to another grown man shouting abuse. Hardly crime of the century.
Probably says more about you than him.
I wish him misfortune based on his whole persona really.
Feeling sorry for himself at City, not being professional, happy to piggyback on the successes of others, taking the easy option and lounging around as an unvalued squad member rather than biting the bullet much earlier and getting a move elsewhere etc etc.
I think we all start from a position of wanting to admire footballers (certain club rivalries aside) and we’re naturally disappointed when they conduct themselves as poorly as Phillips.
Shame you’re too daft to see that
It was hard enough to get him to move to London there’s no way he packs his bags and moves to Saudi100% it must be affecting him mentally, it's gone from bad to worse and every time he steps on the pitch it goes very, very wrong.
Sadly I think he is finished at the top level and no way should he or Leeds consider a return, for me going back is always a mistake and in this case even more so.
I can see him taking the Saudi route if on offer, and simply make as much cash as he can out of the game.
