Rice and Philips same same player , why waste time and money ?
You need an eye test…
Phillips have done the opposite at City, stunk it up bad. Rice is way betterPhillips is better than he’s shown here but Rice is on another level completely. His size and athleticism alone put him above KP. I hope we can get this one done he’s a great player.

I can trust Txiki/Pep and still be against a potential signing of a player I think is mediocre, since I will not blindly agree with everything they think/do/say. That obviously doesnt mean I think Txiki/Pep are idiots that dont know what they are doing, I think they are the best in the business. But if we are being linked with a player I think would be a terrible signing for us (at least considering the fee), based on what I have seen with my own eyes 50+ games, I will obviously say what I think on a forum discussing transfers. That doesnt mean I think I know better than anyone else, especially not Txiki/Pep, its just my opinion.You could just do what I said, which is express your personal reservations about the player while conceding that Guardiola knows what he's doing and the club is in safe hands so there's no reason to break out the chicken little impression.
Nah, not worlds apart. Maybe streets apart. They are in the same world, same neighborhood and the same P.O BOX, just that Philips has been riddled with injuries. So those injuries make the same streets apart. If it weren't for the injuries, I would say: They are in the same street!Worlds apart in terms of quality.

Big Sam did a podcast with Natalie Pike last week, think Sherwood was the other guest.
Pike asks who will Declan Rice play for next season, Sherwood says Arsenal, Big Sam then out of nowhere says Man City. He always has his ear on the ground for these things. Has lots of contacts in the game.
Could be something in this…
He is still big mates with Sullivan at West Ham.
Phillips had 50 Premier League games under his belt compared to 200plus from Declan Rice. Was not convinced by Phillips at Leeds or for England and was bought as cover. Rice looks a few levels above and would challenge for a regular slot I believe. Yes he would have to improve but at 24 think his positioning and game awareness would be raised a few levels under Pep.Nah, not worlds apart. Maybe streets apart.

Not that it makes any difference but i don't rate rice at all and don't see what all the hype is about. Run of the mill average dm
