Kalvin Phillips

There’s no point getting on his back. He’s no doubt leaving in January so as long as he keeps head down and doesn’t cost us between now and then it is what it is.

When the manager doesnt trust you to start against the Young boys, then its time to give up and move

What't the point of this post?

Thought he did alright when he came on. Nothing spectacular though

Smashing lad by the looks of it. I hope his career kicks on, somewhere, at some point.

Seems a nice guy, not his fault he's just not good enough for us

He was a shining light in a shit team that tried to play the way Guardiola likes no wonder Guardiola thought he could work with him.

It is a shame as he has kept his head down and worked hard.

Still an England International pick hope he maintains that.

He seemed to play better last night and seemed to be happier. He was quite decent I thought.

But even still when the opportunities arose to make a telling pass or a nothing pass he chose the nothing pass. I don't think that's a case of Pep coaching him to be more conservative because the passes I'm talking about weren't risky by any means. He just seems to be unwilling to really impact the game. Just being an 11th man on the pitch who can link play imo isn't enough.

Hopefuly he goes and we get someone more sure of themselves. (IMO we should replace him with another modern CB rather than a DM)

Either way I wish him all the best in and out of football.

He did fine enough but fine enough isn't good enough. I like him as a bloke and think there's a perfectly good player there. But he's more suited to a side like Villa or Brighton.

Gave us a clap at the end for those of us who bothered staying.
