Kalvin Phillips

Hard to put into words how incredibly terrible this transfer has gone for the club.
I wonder if Pep ever regrets his comments on him after the WC, because it seems to have ruined him as a footballer.
Regardless, if it was a correct assessment of him or not.

Hopefully the club can just cut their losses soon, but these performances cannot be helping our negotiations at all!
 
Could have been worse , in fact I think it has been. Supposedly Everton and Fulham are interested. Honestly I thought he was ok in the half he played certainly no worse than anyone else.
 
I can forgive bad passes or controls, but his complete lack of effort is genuinely a disgrace. Don't get me started on his positional sense: a complete swing and a miss from Txiki.
Doesn’t scan the pitch either. If he recieves the ball and there isn’t an obvious one-touch pass available, he doesn’t have a clue on what to do with the ball

Can't we rip up his contract on the basis he's a fraud and lied on his CV about being able to play football.
 
Been the same since day one, unfortunately. Just doesn’t seem to want it.

Yeah - I can handle a few misplaced passes but he doesn't offer himself enough for the ball. Would even forgive it if he just threw himself around a bit. Can't recall ever seeing a player lose so much form, confidence and motivation as him.

He doesn't have it in him to want it. Being an elite footballer in an elite team isn't for everyone.
There are players who want it even more than he does, yet they wouldn't make the cut here.

Poor lad. Seems like a great fella to have around, but far too expensive to be a homegrown paperweight.

Just hasn’t worked out and the sooner he gets another team, the better for him.

Currently he's an expensive, outfield version of Scott Carson. Maybe he can take the 4th keeper role....

Wish it had worked, but nah, nevermind. I'll wish him the best every game he plays when he leaves, as long as it isn't against us, but even then I wouldn't exactly worry.
