I can't pretend I'm that enthusiastic about Phillips.
I have faith this is all BS anyway so I'm not losing any sleep over the majority of the players we're linked with.I can't pretend I'm that enthusiastic about Phillips.
Out for three months with injury this season. Definitely need to tread carefully. The £50m is pretty hefty, definitely a gamble.I can't pretend I'm that enthusiastic about Phillips.

No idea why he's not really a popular choice amongst fan opinion. Very good passer of the ball puts a shift in defensively he would bring the midfield up a level or two. Was quoted 70 million a few seasons ago when city were interested, he's more than good enough.Tweet

He'd be a better signing than both, technically adept and more importantly fits the profile that the manager would make use out of whilst plugging a gap in our squad. However, it does feel underwhelming that this is the best solution we have.This screams of the same dinosaur recruitment that brought us Maguire and Wan Bissaka.

It's coming from Tobi Altschäffl, who's a good journalist for Bayern Munich news.Hopefully he's wrong. Bayern are the most tedious hoover of talent in world football.
I highly doubt they'd pay the required fee for himHopefully he's wrong. Bayern are the most tedious hoover of talent in world football.
All to play in a one team league.Hopefully he's wrong. Bayern are the most tedious hoover of talent in world football.
You need to offer CL football or the almost certainty of CL football. You got really lucky to secure Sancho last summer.It's starting to feel like we've finally reached the point where the top talents are no longer batting their eyelashes at us, and we're having to settle for b-tier talents like Phillips instead. The result of nine years of failure and irrelevance.
Fortunately we now have a coach who can potentially get us playing without having a team full of stars at his disposal.
Is the CL every 10 years or something? Players will sign despite no CL.Yes, we might not be able to compete for the current 5-6 "hype" players but lets be honest - United never had the pulling power or Real and Barcelona, even in the SAF days.You need to offer CL football or the almost certainty of CL football. You got really lucky to secure Sancho last summer.
I don’t think he’s any better than Fred or a McTominay tbh.Kalvin Phillips, he may not be the AWB of CDMs but it's not far off. For £30m, I'd take him as a starter in EtH's first season and bench option after but £50m is excessive and you just know we'll refuse to sideline him because of the price tag.
Bayerns recruitment hasn’t been all that great in recent years has it?Bayern gonna scoop up half the Ajax team while our board and 800 director of something positions argue about dutch league players not be going enough.
He would be far from my first pick but he's a much better passer than those two and has better positional sense.I don’t think he’s any better than Fred or a McTominay tbh.

I wouldn’t call it luck, Sancho wanted to come home and we were the only (mugs?) willing enough to pay €70mYou need to offer CL football or the almost certainty of CL football. You got really lucky to secure Sancho last summer.

Crystal Palace are considering a move to bring Aaron Wan-Bissaka back from [Athletic UK]
Relax y'all, it's just the media generating some clicks. I'd like to see him here, but am questioning his true integrity due to being a Leeds supporter.Christ we have fallen
Fecking £50m for Kalvin fecking Phillips.
