Kalvin Phillips | Joins City on a 6-year deal

That's where it all started going wrong for Michael Owen. Pretty sure he had a really bad hamstring injury and was never the same player.

I thought it was Owens knee I saw crumbling before me in an England game???

I wouldn’t want to see Rodri play an role other than DM

dont go on the ederson thread then ;)

Hes not walking to sign for us he will be in his lambourghini!

Is he with Geoff Thomas…?

 

[nmc]

they have let 4 players go ( pogba , matic , mata, cavani - not couting the dance merchant lingard) , have gaps to fill + this tight budget , very bad position for them to be in.

long may it continue !

You forgot Phil the Face… how will they cope? Who’s gonna make the tea and slice the Oranges on match days?

A rag mate told me Phil has another year on his 150k a week contract they extended it afew seasons ago cause they thought it would get them a bigger fee! Lol

Feels very much like a Rodwell and Sinclair signing.

People on here thought they were astute signings too.

I know we can't have two 'superstar' signings in every position however I thought there might have been someone out there better than Phillips.

Will be a huge drop off in quality from Rodri to Phillips.

You really do think highly of your scouting skills…

Only when tam right :)

congrats on being 1 of 2 that were championing Rodri! (I must have been the other, only I seem to recall a lot of others, but I must be mistaken)

Nah it wasn't you. It was @Andrew___K I believe. We used to discuss him on other threads before there ever was a link.

You are right though, many did like him. I was simply reminiscing about my liking him... That's all :)

Fair enough… still, as good as you seem to think you are at scouting, I think I’m gonna go with Pep and his highly qualified staff! So if they think Phillips is worth a shot, then I’m happy to go with that over your opinion of him being a basic woman.

I think Phillips will be a decent signing, albeit his injury record this season slightly concerns me. He is an excellent passer and a good tackler. He is not at the level of Rodri, but I think he may surprise a few on here.

There are also people on here who thought that the Rodwell and Sinclair signings were not very astute, but that Kalvin Phillips is very astute!
