I think he can, he’s a good centre back as back up but midifield is his bread and butter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thabucks Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 (edited) gattuso had classic short man anger issues coupled with Latin temperament which covered up for his failings as I never hugely rated him . Phillips on the other hand doesn’t seem to be have these issues so yep could be better I mean if snake and dier can play DM for England there is nothing to say Phillips cannot if he continues his current trajectory ... sorry @KenjiOgiwara but I think you are wrong about him and I question whether you have watched him play that much.

I haven't seen him play that much, but neither has most of the people here I suspect. He's had one season as a DMC? Where assuming you watch our matches you've seen him play twice. Then add a likely 10 matches Leeds were televised and maybe someone lucky has seen him 5 times. Yet they are adamant he is the dogs bollox and we should spend £ 30 million on this lad like we've never had money issues, in arguably our most important position for PL survival.

MaVilla Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 (edited) leeds have signed Helder Costa on a 1 year loan, that will turn in to a permanent transfer next season with a 4 year contract (5 years total). Clever FFP work around by the look of it, and they must expect to be promoted this season making those kind of deals? I can see them getting promoted this season tbh if they keep their best players and add players like Costa. Im starting to think the Phillips transfer wont happen, they wont go selling their best players if they are throwing everything at promotion this season, and its not like Phillips wants to leave tbh. edit - price is £15.5m, thats a lot of money for a non parachute club, either they are spending with a do or bust mentality to get promoted, or maybe they are pre spending the cash they expect for Phillips.

villabromsgrove Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Kenji, a lot of football fans think that Philips is a great DM prospect who has just had a damn good season. That's forty odd games where he displayed the kind of characteristics that we're currently missing. He's the kind of player that you would rather have playing for you than against you. I was genuinely worried about our chances of playing Leeds in the play off finals because of the likelihood of Philips cancelling out Grealish for two games. He makes a difference. (his price wont be anywhere near 30 million) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am speaking for myself and it's embarrassing small time fawning over a player for crazy money when half of you probably have seen him in the dmc role only a few times. I'm definitely only basing my view on having seen him a handful of times - I thought he was fantastic when we played them and would love to see us sign him. However I'm also aware that signing players based on how they play against us hasn't always gone well! But based on what I have seen, I think he'd be a good PL player.

Mazrim Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 (edited) We don't really know what Phillips is thinking. Its understandable that he'd find it hard to leave his boyhood club but I don't believe any random bods who claim they know. The current England manager is a bit of a knob when it comes to picking players outside the top flight. I'm sure Phillips believes he could get in ahead of oafs like Dier and Rice. But he has to be in the top flight. Edited July 3, 2019 by Mazrim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
