Kalvin Phillips

[Sky Blue]

We need to make sure he can't play against us - he'll be playing like a man possessed especially at Anfield

Don't think he's got "possessed" in him . Unless on the salbutamol.

 

[domalino]

I know it's been a strange window in a lot of ways, but I'd be amazed if we were willing to loan him to Liverpool.

It would be an absolutely savage assessment of Liverpool's position as rivals from our board!

 

[Chi-town blues]

I really don’t understand Philips as a human . If my boss tells me to fuck off , I would give my fingers and quit right there . He seems stubborn and wants to fight but pep has zero interest.
Has pep seen enough of him? is he a lazy **** who show half hearted effort during training or just not good enough? I never rated him and didn’t want us to sign him .

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

I'm amazed Barcelona haven't made an offer we can't refuse - City pay his wages and pay for his flights and taxi to the ground, pay for his shirt printing and also for the production costs of translating his next documentary into Spanish.

 

[Blackley_Blue]

I'd rather we paid him £150k a week to high five the team off the pitch than loan him out to them cunts.

We're surely not that desperate to get his wages off the books are we?

This is actually fuckin hilarious isn't it.

Sounds like it's a case of just getting him out of the door at all costs. The only comparison I can think of is Cancelo, but nothing suggest Phillips is a disruptive prick...quite the opposite...

 

[bumbleblue]

Actually I don’t want him to go… wouldn’t be surprised if he does though.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Well also sending him to a club that suits his game, has an excellent manager, a horde of excitable fans in the press and lots of money is just about the dream destination for a loanee?

If he plays well we'll get our money back next summer, snd liverpool's a good place for players to do well.

On the negative side, if we do loan him, he can’t play against us in the league.

 

[Dribble]

Waistcoat's added Kalvin to his squad...

Southgate claims that albeit Philips not playing isn't ideal, he's the only player England have got who can play as a single pivot??? ¯⁠\⁠_⁠ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ⁠_⁠/⁠¯

 

[Legal Alien]

This is the guy who gets all the early team news every week

I'd rather we sold him, especially if he goes to them.
They were willing to pay over £100m for Caceido so they can tip up £40-45m for Phillips.

 

[keemcfc]

He's retained his place in the England squad, announced just now

 

[johnny crossan]

We need to make sure he can't play against us - he'll be playing like a man possessed especially at Anfield

If loaned can only play against us in the cups.

[Manc Born & Bred]

The England squad is a joke. Notice that Trent Alexander - Arnold has been included in the list of midfielders and not defenders (mind you he isn't either). How do Phillips, Henderson, Rashford, Gallagher and Maguire manage to be selected. Surprised he didn't try and shoehorn in Sancho! Total joke. At least he hasn't named Stones.

[FantasyIreland]

Id sooner double his wages and let him rot in the stiffs than loan him to the tramps.

As for Southgate......****.

 

[paulchapo]

Phillips for whatever reasons just hasn't worked here. When we bought him I thought 45 million was a bargain for an England international who'd had a decent Euro's. I'm sure he'll do well in another side.

 

[Gumzy97]

He could literally not play a single minute of football for us but he will still get in the England squad. You have to ask why would he leave? He can sit on the bench collect trophies and a big pay check and still play for England. Why would he leave

 

[BrianW]

RAWK 'City's loaning Phillips to the Mighty Reds is another way of fiddling FFP. Liverpool are giving them a big brown envelope full of £50 notes. Oh, wait...'
