supermon Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Few twitter reports saying that we have gone in for £25 million for Phillips, would be happy with that if we managed to get him. Seems though he is quite keen to stay at leeds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

desensitized43 Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 It's a key position. We've let Jedinak and Whelan go (I'd have given Whelan another year, personally). That leaves us horribly short in this area. Leeds know we need him and he's important to how they play. Given all that, I'd pay it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alreadyexists Posted June 28, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted June 28, 2019 I’d rather get Rongier than Phillips I think, either is taking a small risk. Just my opinion of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it doesn't stop us signing the rest of our targets in this window I'll kinda be ok with it. If it does, then we are going about this the wrong way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 £15m would be a lot for a Championship DCM. £25 would be eye watering. Fully get why Leeds are asking that much thou as he is integral to them, but we have a whole world to find players in. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WakefieldVillan Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 I've mentioned a few times on here that I'm a big, big fan of Philips and think he would fit in perfectly with our team but... I think 25 million is a LOT of money and although I get why Leeds would want that (we as a club know that more than most), we should look elsewhere for sure!

PieFacE Posted June 28, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted June 28, 2019 I'd just buy him. Even at 25m. Cracking player. Exactly what we need, and there aren't too many players like that which we can attract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alreadyexists Posted June 28, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted June 28, 2019 I think that’s too much money for him. But it’s just paper talk, they are making up stuff to fill column inches and get clicks, we don’t know for sure that we’ve made an offer of that much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villabromsgrove Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 We need a holding midfielder who's got 90 minutes flat out stamina and physical athleticism every match and is also an accurate and accomplished passer of the ball. Add a bit of 'nasty' to his on the pitch persona, and you've got Kalvin Philips. The guy's got a good character and training ethic away from match days as well. I'm guessing 18 million plus add ons and a sell on clause could get the deal done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herman22 Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 The DM role is so important to the way we play it might be worth paying the money for him. You see top teams how they suffer when their DM is out. Take Man City for example, no one can replace Fernandinho in their team. He's not a top top player but in their system he is essential. I think we need two new players in DM as Hourhane will get walked all over in this league at DM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BG_Villa_Fan Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Leeds can ask for whatever they feel like, it’s their prerogative, however I don’t want to see Villa being bent over with fees like that. Next up even the Brentfords and Bristols will start asking for 25 mil instead of 20 for their unproven players. Hopefully just paper talk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted June 28, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted June 28, 2019 I reckon nobody knows nada on price - only that there has been renewed contact between Villa and his agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
