Kalvin Phillips

Has every right to sit on that massive contract getting wages he won't elsewhere. If I was him I'd just go on loans until the city contract runs out.
He has you are correct BUT -
Depends on how much integrity he has....if he has personal integrity then he should not to want to just sit there on his contract and should want to go and actually resurrect his career...these guys ear so much that a drop off in wages wouldnt exactly hurt him financially .

He has a 6 year contract worth £46.8 million apparently, I'd gladly train at city till the end of it, there is nothing immoral about him staying to see out his contract he's reached his peak and won't achieve anything higher so what's the point in moving elsewhere? And the drop in wages would hurt him financially especially when he has no reason for doing so we have no idea what his financial plans are and what he does with his money. City fucked up big time and that is on them not Kalvin.

Also as far as trophies are concerned, he can tell his grandkids that he won a treble and multiple premier league titles after the treble too.

Silverware doesn't really take context into account so his legacy on paper will look great to the future generation of football fans.

With all that success he should win ballon d'or as well!

No wonder he has always got a big smile on his face.
I will be amazed if it’s for 6 years.
We might need him when we are in the north west counties league

Never said its immoral

Its about professional integrity.

Playing regular games is better than being sat on the subs bench or not even making the squad for a professoinal footballer.

He has no reason to drop wages - but it wouldnt hurt him with the amount these guys do if he did

yes we fucked up BUT for his own inegrity looking back after his career has finished he should move...sitting on the bench wasting his best years as a pro ......anyone with integrity would should regret that. I personally would be embarrassed and would rather play

Well the meaning of integrity is being honest and having strong moral principles, so the opposite of that will be immoral.

You can't really say if a drop in wages will hurt him or not as you have no idea what he does with his money, it's generational wealth he will be able to sort all his family if he so wishes.

Most likely he will go on loans with city covering most of his wage until the end of his contract. Unless someone matches it and buys him but I can't see it tbh.

Professional Integrity


City should cut their losses and let him go wherever for a minimal amount. Better for all around....if he still then refuses he would lose the respect of a fans
 
Also as far as trophies are concerned, he can tell his grandkids that he won a treble and multiple premier league titles after the treble too.

“& when I retired I bought Yorkshire……”
 
What is his biggest failing? not being good enough to challenge Rodri, we are letting City down with this constant pulling him down, it is devaluing him, so what is his value? about £10 million a year loan, just imagine a team coming up, that does not know where they will be next year, getting an England player on a temporary deal represents good business. For ourselves it represents £30 million loans, around £15 million amortization, paying of most of his fee. A loss of his wages and position, whether that be a squad place or loan spot.
But who is to blame, not the player, not the fans, but the person who thought he could do a job he could not. Lets blame that person not the player as that is bad for City and our reputation as fans.

I suspect he would rather play - the problem seems to be no-one currently appears to want him??
I've seen, I think, 1 rumour of alleged interest from a Turkish club.
There'll be movement at some point, but it'll be a loan somewhere with us footing the bill around Aug 30th/31st.
We made an error, it's not on him. Good player just not what we thought we saw
 
We will not be able to sell him. It will be loans until his contract expires. Hes on huge money for a player of his calibre. Few teams will take him on loan with city covering at minimum 60 percent of his wages
