Kalvin Phillips | Joins City on a 6-year deal

[JewelZee]

What do you consider a 'gross undervaluing'?

I consider those claiming even 35 mil for Phillips is too much to be grossly undervaluing him...

well, first of all as you can see, tchouameni is going for 100m, not 60m

second of all, I agree taht techoameni is superior, but I think with him he's worth the price, philipps isn't, and I don't want either of them for that price. I would take FDJ for this price because I think he's more versatile and can save us money down the road once gundo leaves

Again, I am just comparing our previous discussion and how we have fallen. We had the same argument before for Tchouameni and now we’re having about Phillips. I know Tchouameni went for more.
The thing with FDJ isn’t even that he’d work as a Gundogan replacement but I’d go even further and say he’d be a KDB level protagonist when in two or three years. A player like him isn’t available every season and Barcelona is on a sale, which makes the opportunity even tastier. And we’d be stopping United who make no mistake, with ETH won’t be in the shit as under the past few managers.

Maybe we have other plans instead of FDJ. Just not for this summer.

Gus I’ll be honest I haven’t seen much of Tchouameni but I’ve seen you mention him a few times. Can you give me a quick brief of the sort of player he is like.

Are Madrid not stacked in midfield positions as well.

Rodri is superior to both but really just need something different. I am not pretending that he is anything close to the next Andrea Pirlo but still provides depth that is currently lacking

Rodri and Rice are not the same player. Rodri is superior but I don’t know if Rice under Pep couldn’t even surpass him. Whereas I know with 100% confidence that even with Pep Phillips won’t be near Rice under Moyes lmao. Now imagine Pep leaving after next season and we’re stuck with him. Great prospect! Maybe we sign Bielsa as the successor

Depressing to think Rice could be done for around £75M if reports from today are to be believed

The rumor is that Rice is a Chelsea fan who wants to join Chelsea, and Chelsea are likely to bid for him and offer the security in mins a player of his reputation wants. I just think City have chosen to try get an alternative who wants to come here and accepts that Rodri is main guy as CDM. But thats just my simple layman's guess, I obviously have no clue if thats really the case:)

Oh the Bellingham dream. I’m not holding my breath

Three CL finals and 1 CL trophy. I would love to have that kind of result. Maybe in the future.

You are joking right? What good are the 2 failed finals? LMFAO...

Tune in for the France game right now, he’s playing. Alongside Kamara! Ugh…

if they were both playing for free, you'd get FDJ but there not FDJ is on about 15m more a year before a pay cut or any moves.
