Kalvin Phillips

Or is it a case of a very average player having an exceptional 18 months of form which included the Euros?

It would not be the first time a player had a great International Tournament and got a big move that did not work out.

Possibly, but how long do you wait to ensure a player's form isn't a temporary thing? He'd done it for Leeds for a good couple of years, he seemed to be getting better and he had a great international tournament. He seemed a steal at the price and a great squad addition.

I am not sure with his form with Leeds, a lot of their fans could not believe we bought him and they got 40m.

He seemed very much a marmite player, sadly for us he now has become a parody player.
 
Subbed in at 69 mins 3-1 up, to then lose 4-3 with him at fault for the pen and then the winner. Is there another case of where a footballer has had a worse impact at a club in such a short space of time?
At the moment it feels like in every match the worst that could go wrong, does go wrong!

At this stage he surely needs to go back down to league 1/championship level to build his career back up again.
Oh well when we’re relegated to the conference he’ll fit right in.
 
It’s amazing what £180k a week can do! He retired after the move mentally. We should have put him to train with reserves last summer to force him to move. Pep has known from week one he won’t play for us. We were too nice.
Shame he didn't realise that before buying him and shipping out a very good youth prospect to make way for him.

He's not related to Jamie Pollack by any chance is he?
