Kalvin Phillips

[Nethermoor]

Feel for him. I hope he sorts his career out. He's by all accounts a really decent lad.

He was in the dressing room post game. Stones posted a picture with him. I have no ill will toward him but I can’t decide if that’s weird or not.

I can't believe what a shit take that is!

Stones and Phillips are England colleagues at minimum. City players together and most likely friends off the pitch. Professional football is a small world, really.

Do you think life stops for everyone outside of the City grounds?

I guess nobody exists for you when you close your doors at home!?

Oh, my comment wasn’t intended to be a judgement about him. I get they are super good friends and I’m sure Stones was happy to have him there. I just wondered if Phillips felt weird being there - obviously this year hasn’t turned out the way he wanted. And I’m sure it’s hard to see your friends celebrating and being a part of something for which you were on the periphery. Imo, being in the locker room would have been hard for Phillips, as that feels more private to those players. I wouldn’t have thought twice about him on the field with friends and family.

Ultimately, my comment was more about me feeling badly that he might feel uncomfortable/sad/etc.

Better explained and I'd agree with the awkward feeling of 'contribution'.

im sure his future will be sorted out soon, i feel sorry for the lad, its just not worked out here for him.

Interest from Everton & Crystal Palace.

If Leeds get promotion that could be interesting.

Will it add to his value? :-)

Will what?

Absolutely! Compare and contrast Phillips's honours haul thus far with say that of Harry Kane - an infinitely superior player in every regard - and, there in a nutshell, is the madness and rank unfairness of modern football.

Absurd, is it?
