Kalvin Phillips

Yeah, it'll be pretty damning for him if he doesn't start either of the PL games that Rodri is suspended for, but it seems a distinct possibility.

Pep's already told us everything we need to know in his press conference.

Phillips was told he's never going to play. He chose to stay anyway. Pep said OK because he's a nice enough bloke and not disruptive.

I can sort of understand why some people are still holding out vain hope that he's going to have some miraculous comeback, but it seems like Pep's not even entertaining the idea, so it's not going to happen. I think as a fanbase we probably need to move on. He's 6th choice in the only position he plays.
 
I think there's a good player in there but unfortunately he's just not going to get a good run of games to prove it.
Can see him starting our next two games, he'll be a bit meh then when Rodri returns he's out again, possibly for good. Gone next summer without a doubt

Unless he does a Danny Mills?

It was said in a interview discussing loan options offered to him this summer, something like: 'he's having a child and doesn't want to move'. It came across as if it was more 'family based' not necessarily football?

That was pretty negligent of the club really. Being nice and not disruptive are not reasons to keep a player.

They don't have much of a choice, they gave him a 5/6 year contract.

I suppose they could sink to the level of some other clubs and put out a load of negative press stories, banish him the u21s and try to bully him into leaving, but I think that reflects really poorly on the clubs that do it.
