Kalvin Phillips

The ball passed him twice in the box when he was 4 yards away made no effort what so ever to get the ball
Yeah, it deflected round like a pinball.

He’s not good enough. Trying to blame him for unfortunate ricochets seems unnecessary, but I’ve said my bit. Blame him if you want.
 
I agree. He’d have to have been Usain Bolt to affect their goal though.
he was a few yards away, could have had an impact, from just being in the mixer. I ain't saying he would have stopped it but he didn't even try to get involved. For me that alone is just not acceptable

I don’t blame him for the goal as in the position wolves found themselves in. The only thing I blame him for is the lack of effort Dias dived in blocked a shot walker dived on the line and was unlucky with the header Ederson was just running about where Phillips just stood and froze at the whole situation

So, he couldn’t get back in time, whatever he did, but you wanted him to do something other than watching what happened?

Should he have randomly gone for a slide tackle or should he have shouted man on to one of his teammates?

He could have tried to intercept the ball when it went past him twice when about 4 yards away.

Make an effort stick a leg out slide to cut out the pass. Do anything but just stand there and watch. If he tries anything at all and the ball still goes in the net he get no criticism at all. But to just stand there jumping on the spot like a nervous little schoolgirl is criminal

lol, ok.

I remember Gundogan being criticised for not getting stuck in when the chips were down too.

It‘s the innate English supporter’s need for players to show desire and that they care.

If Phillips had cared enough, he could have seen the shot go in from closer quarters.

Alan I don't talk shit about our players but I think we have to come to terms with.. he suits a park the bus system and not a possession based one trying to break down a low block and avoid counters.

Good player.. wrong team.

Sorta a bit like Coutinho at Brokelona. At least we didn't pay 150 mil for him though!
