Terrible signing. We don't make many, but this guy belongs in that category. Can't do anything that any average PL midfielder can't.
We have just got to pray that Rodders stays injury free.He looks heavy, immobile and average.
He needs to get his shit together very swiftly.
Not in the same universe as Rodri.
Come on, there's no comparison between this and Rodri's first year. He wasn't perfect, made mistakes but at least looked like he played as a 6 before.It’s like being in the Rodri 2019/20 thread.
Even the same recycled criticisms.
- Too slow to play in the PL
- Doesn’t look after the ball
- Gets bullied
- Poor positioning
- Not fit to lace [current first choice]’s boots!
I’ll check back in October when you’re all pretending you knew he’d be great from the get go and laughing at the overreaction to his first start.

Good luck on that one.It’s like being in the Rodri 2019/20 thread.

Rodri was very poor at the beginning. Many on here (myself included) were far from happy with him. I hope Philips can turn it around the way Rodri did. The difference for me, is I had barely seen Rodri play prior to him joining us, whereas I have seen plenty of Philips and never rated him. He is here now though and deserves his chance. I don't think one game, after an injury, in a weakened team, constitutes him getting his chance. Jury is out.Come on, there's no comparison between this and Rodri's first year.
