VaxVN Posted April 11, 2022 Posted April 11, 2022 Manchester United are looking to prise Kalvin Phillips away from bitter rivals Leeds. The Red Devils have reportedly made him a priority as they look at ETH as their next permanent manager. According to the papers, Phillips could make a controversial switch from Leeds to Manchester. Their report states a defensive midfielder is a priority for the Red Devils this summer after opting not to bring one in the 2021 transfer window. Since helping Leeds gain promotion 2020, Phillips’ stock has risen significantly. He is a key member in Gareth Southgate’s England squad having received 19 caps and started every match in the Three Lions’ run to the Euro 2020 final. Whilst Man United would love to add him to their squad, they do face a challenge to secure his signature. According to a paper, Newcastle are also interested in signing the talented Englishman.
Waylander Posted April 11, 2022 Posted April 11, 2022 Him and McTominay in the same side that will be tasty should it come off.

If Newcastle are in for him it's goodnight united. He'll be off to the bar codes without a doubt

Dr. Gonzo Posted April 11, 2022 Posted April 11, 2022 5 minutes ago, Cicero said: Leeds would never. They've done business with United and are owned by Yanks that I don't think particularly give a fuck about historic rivalries... and even if they did Leeds-Man Utd is a much bigger rivalry than Leeds-Chelsea. If the price is right, I'm sure they'd be willing to do business with you too.

What the fuck about a player who should be playing for Wolves at best and a bargain bin Gareth Barry playing together in uniteds midfield is 'Tasty', bar the fact that it would be funny as fuck.

OrangeKhrush Posted April 12, 2022 Posted April 12, 2022 Phillips and Bruno is a tasty combo, if we persist with a midfield 3 then Joelinton or Willock the other options

Philips is a good player tbh. One of those where you can tell under the right manager he can elevate his game immensely.

Waylander Posted April 12, 2022 Posted April 12, 2022 It must be a concern he has been out for so long like with Chilwell you worry whether they will be the same player when they return.
Cicero Posted April 12, 2022 Posted April 12, 2022 Good thing about Chilwell was that he tore his ACL on his right leg.
OrangeKhrush Posted April 12, 2022 Posted April 12, 2022 I would prefer Renato Sanches. He is two years younger and cheaper. Phillips would be good if he can be had for around 30mil, but 60mil is a bit steep.
Happy Blue Posted May 20, 2022 Posted May 20, 2022 Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has targeted England ace Kalvin Phillips as a possible replacement for Fernandinho. And the Leeds star would be much more open to moving to the Etihad over joining their rivals Manchester United.
OrangeKhrush Posted May 20, 2022 Posted May 20, 2022 everyone in to raid Leeds if they go down. it sucks for them, they may not be a rebound team either

Easily the lowest pass to KMs ran ratio in the world. But the English are very impressed by cardio over technical ability.

Danny Posted May 21, 2022 Posted May 21, 2022 I rate Kalvin Phillips, thought he was better than Rice at the Euros and just hasn't had the fitness this season to move on. I think because of that someone will get a cut price bargain. On Raphinha I'm not sure I buy into the hype, his goal contribution record is hardly worth the money Leeds will be demanding unless there's a release clause in there. He has really good technique when he hits the ball and I think that makes people forget about the consistency in which he does well in front of goal. I think there is a good player there and he's done well in what is a really shit team, but I don't think he was particularly amazing last season either. With that said it wouldn't surprise me if Liverpool move in and his stats sky rocket

With that said it wouldn't surprise me if Liverpool move in and his stats sky rocket I agree, i think both are overhyped and only at the right price do they make sense. it's like baseball you don't buy names, you buy wins, the wins lie in metrics and neither is particularly game changing on there own. They are good not great. we bought Bruno for 34m there is no way Phillips is worth 30m on his output. This injury stuff is a) damages value as oft injured is not useful and b) it is a poor excuse. I think he and Raphina could benefit at better teams though.
