I dont remember it but it stuck ๐
Darren Bent is quite the raconteur still, smashing his gig here ๐๐ฝ
From his antics during Man Cityโs treble celebrations you would think he was a top player who was integral to their success.
I'm gutted pep actually apologised. He should have said I meant what I said, and I stand by it.
Attempting to punish Everton twice in the same season is a sick joke & although i'm a Villa fan,its absolutely ridiculous & i feel for them. Our game is run by a bunch of corrupt clowns who are protecting the Rich 6 monopoly who seem to be able to do what they want & don't get punished. Really piss poor!
Even at West Ham, disrespect there! COYI
He calls himself the Yorkshire Pirlo, more like Yorkshire Pudding
Kalvin Phillips has benefitted immensely by football fans still thinking International football is still top quality. I'd say 70% of England's opponents they face now, whether that be in friendlies, Nations League and early stages of World Cup/Euro's are no better than championship level opponents, with half of that being League 1, League 2 and possibly Semi-pro standard. Most England games for these 'premier League' players are the equivalent of 3rd round League Cup/FA Cup ties playing teams like Salford City, but because it's 'international football' people think it is automatically the same standard as the Premier League. Players like Kalvin Phillips have massively benefited from this complete misnomer viz-a-viz international football in todays footballing climate. I've never seen Kalvin Phillips as a Premier League standard player, but one decent through ball for Raheem Sterling in Englands Euro 2020 opener against a weak Croatian side and he's catapulted to underserving footballing superstardom.
If you get paid stupid amounts of money, you should have the backbone to take critisism from your manager
Phillips has the be currently the WORST loan signing in history right now, Costing us 500k a week in fee's and all he's done so far is give away 2 goals and get sent off, An absolute masterclass by Moyes, I'm so glad he rejected all the players put forward by Tim so he could sign Phillips
When a player already looks fat in the peak of his career, you just know he is going to be Neil Ruddock levels by the time Talksport sign him as a rent-a-gob
Somebody yesterday said Philips has only played 54 games in the premier league. 54 ๐ฎ. The deal to go to West Ham is costing 500 thousand a week until the end of the season shocking business from West Ham
Is it because hes not very good? I feel like it might be that.
Moyes out now
Would you get in trouble for telling an astronaut theyre overweight and not fit to fly? Its a job, its not about aesthetics and looks
Fat shame ๐. You having a laugh. They are professional footballers. If your overweight, that's extremely unprofessional
This is sport. It's not fat-shaming. Maybe not say it in public but tell the fella he needs to lose weight.
There's many ways to frame a conversation.
England will never win a European comp because of players like Phillips Maguire Henderson pickford rashford and shaw
It stuck but I cant remember what it said… hahahaha
If the squad for the tournament is announced and Phillips is in it, Southgate should be sacked on the spot.
Rico Lewis would be a better back up DM that Kalvin. Feel bad for the lad but heโs way off it
Thatโs why England donโt win anything in football or rugby, managers plays their favs not the best!
Philips is lucky to be in the Prem as heโs not that class at all.
ยฃ140,000 a week mediocrity West Ham agreed to pay for. Lmao
leeds fan here, hes getting blasted but the fact is pep bought a player that can only press for 50mil. hes an average passer ( below average at times ), wont score will just run his socks off… we was just a pressing team with no quality but when you play for city and you have majority of the ball you need real quality vision, awareness passing and confidence. was great business for Leeds tbh. he was always a heavy set lad at leeds fitness has nothing to do with it.
It is a privilege to be a 1% earner from playing a game with no real-world consequence anyone in that position who doesn't recognize that I can't have sympathy for.
Pretty sure Darren Bent is talking about Tom Huddleston when talking about Juande Ramos
I think Wenger did something similar at Arsenal
Kalvin jumped from Leeds for his 30 pieces of silver to Man C. Three trophies won with token appearances.
Wasted his chance to be a club great at Leeds.
Now, Kalvin looks like a has-been.
It shows that Bielsa really did get the best out of some very ordinary players at Leeds.
Kalvin's damaged, get out the hankies, absolute cheek turning up overweight
I wouldn't write him off yet. Can easily take a few matches to find form
Kobe Maino should replace Kalvin Philips in the National Team
Never rated him, just another player like Maguire that has a few goods games for England then the media pushes all this hype onto him he's not earned and then the big clubs believe the hype and pay stupid money for them
I think Darren Bent is an excellent pundit, should be on BBC and SKY more.
Problem is that kalvins confidence has gone ever since he went to cityโฆ..bielsa got Phillips to a standard where England came calling
i'm surprised Kalvin Phillips even mentioning it to be honest, it's really awkward and Pep being asked about it was really awkward too. i don't see who benefits from bringing it up really. I mean just use it to give you extra determination
You carnt be match fit if you are not playing matches and the biggest joke is the price tag๐
Ian Beale was the same
How does anybody expect him to perform any different. He's played a few more games than adam johnson in the last 2 seasons
His job is to be a footballer first and foremost, that is, living as a professional athlete
I was worried villa was going for him ๐ฎ
What do people expect, he has barely played for 18 months
KP even at Leeds was just an average championship playerโฆ..in fact at Leeds. Luke Ayling was a far far better player than Philips. Defo not England squad material same the likes of Maguire, Stones etc. plus the silly hair do doesnโt help team selections ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
Benty got the memory of a goldfish ๐คฃ
Phillips has been an absolute disgrace at West Ham. First two games he immediately makes errors leading to goals and then the two yellows ๐ฅด
