And just who is going to give us 20million for phillipsNunes will prove to be a good buy,, Phillips we’ll get £20 mill back, so nowhere near £100 mill.
Don’t know, don’t care. There’s still a decent player in there,certainly a £20 mill player somebody will think can get him back to where he was.And just who is going to give us 20million for phillips

Could see him going somewhere like Everton. Slightly different but like Cancelo in the fact clubs know we don’t want the player so they will get a favourable deal. And probably a loan anyway.Think Leeds was our only hope and that looks slim now.
Even then it would probably be a loan with an obligation if they stayed up and he played x amount of games.
No ones going to offer us straight 20 million for him.
He was a good player,a player Pep thought had enough talent to improve on and make a City player, his confidence is shot. Any decent manager should have enough belief they can get that £40 mill player back. £20 mill is a bit of a gamble but sure there will be some team willing to take it.Could see him going somewhere like Everton.

One of the promoted teams possibly?Think Leeds was our only hope and that looks slim now.

I suspect that precious few clubs now have the kind of money needed to take such a gamble. It’s also a salutary lesson for us. Unless we are completely convinced that the player has a future at the club (Nunes, Gomez, etc.), then we should sell them immediately. Phillips has put a hefty dent in the idea that just being around great players and learning from Guardiola will improve the player and raise their value.He was a good player,a player Pep thought had enough talent to improve on and make a City player, his confidence is shot.
