Kalvin Phillips

Midfield had tired for 5-10 minutes before Kovacic was withdrawn and both he and Phillips were flagging. He needs the exposure so had to stay on. He should have been more switched on at their first goal, but the ball should also have been better protected up the park before then. Harbour no ill will to him and hope he goes to Italy on loan.
 
He seemed kind of lost at times. Like you can see the confidence has just been drained from him completely. I hate seeing it, and it was great that they gave him the penalty, which he nailed.

I really hope he gets a fresh start somewhere and finds his form again.
 
Did ok tonight, aside from not tracking back quickly enough on their first goal.
I think that’s been a regular thing with him. Probably suits England better as Southgate is so defensive. With the way we play currently he just isn’t quick enough and dithers on the ball a bit too long. Hopefully he catches a break at his next club and stays injury free.
