4 | Kalvin Phillips - 2022/23 Performances

[Groke]

Will be difficult to get rid of him after he pulls a Kompany winning screamer goal from 26 yards out in the FA Cup final, minute 93:58

he'd have to attempt to kick the ball forwards for that to happen

OK Kaz.

Don't you start!

He's gone from all action non stop midfielder to looking like the game is too fast for him, id expect Everton or villa to give us our money back but kalvin hasn't shown any improvement all season to suggest he'll kick on next year.

Bet Gareth picks him though ;-)

True, but he is one of Gareth's first choice back 7 though.

Ferran Torres was trusted more by Pep than Kalvin!

Just go back to the Southampton game.. it was sink or swim and he sank!

He has not been trusted since with anything less than a 3 goal lead, and even then he gave 1 goal back by doing a Kalvin with Ederson.

Sad but true!

Just looking at some stats on the FPL website and it says he's played 102 minutes of PL football for us this season, that's shocking. Seems like a really nice lad but we can't carry passengers in a squad, that's not the biggest..

Well he's generated nearly twice as many pages of posts as minutes on the pitch then.
Not sure what we are talking about with performances as the sample size is so small.
Not very promising ones though I'd have to agree

Its worrying when Pep is playing players out of their positions ( Stones & Gundogan last game) instead of picking Philips to play in his natural position !

Think this is the biggest indicator to me he doesn't have a future at City.

Get a versatile/dynamic player like Kovacic in to replace him and ship him off to a mid-table club for £30m - recoup most of what we got while he still has stock as a 27 year old English international, rather than City flop.

Nothing else matters, really.

Not sure how much faith you can put in John Cross as a credible journalist, mind......
