Never lolInstead of Rodri?
Maybe we can tell Chelsea they were mistaken when they thought they were getting Cole... "No, no, no you clearly said KAL, not Cole."Maybe we can tell Chelsea that Phillips can play as a winger
I would agree with your assessment a little...but he has now had a fully fit preseason with Pep and the squad an still has not featured at all in five meaningful games. Not even a ten minute cameo vs Burnley where even Laporte got a run out.He's struggled yes, but the injury set him back so had to be a squad player, After the World Cup City was behind the 8 ball chasing Arsenal so it had to be our best 11 for most of the run in, Ok he's no Rodri and I don't think that's is game anyway, Maybe the Gundogan role would suit Phillips, but Pep feels Kovacic is better at that role,
So if it's Rodri's role he is covering for then yes he is not good enough for that, But Pep knows best
Great shout with Alastair MacIntosh at CEO still (?)If Fulham sell Palhinha for a massive profit to Bayern, they could come knocking for Phillips.
Why would he go Fulham ? He turned down better offers left and right so far.Loan with option to buy is on the cards if Palhinha goes to Bayern.
City would push for an obligation but Fulham want either the option or an obligation triggered by a minimum number of appearances.

He’s just fine tuning his Tolmie tribute act.Why would he go Fulham ? He turned down better offers left and right so far.
No chance of a loan. They’d have £130m to spend having sold Mitrovic and Paulinha. £65m please.Payoff. It's an option but I wouldn't be betting on it. It's less likely to happen than not but, there have already been Frank conversations in private with Philips and his representatives that playing time isn't something that he can expect.
