I like Phillips but he cant pass for sh!t and that may cause an issue.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah this, solid in the air though.
Phillips is not good enough as the fourth center back. I want the backup center back to be on the same level as the first choice centre back.
Be very surprised if Phillips made it with us. Love him to prove me wrong though

Two centre backs have been good I think.
Got to admit I am growing so fond of Phillips. Proper body on the line defender who will give everything for this club.
Not the best technically but he fights so hard and I love that.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He’s not had a bad game yet , and his passing is better than he’s given credit for
----------------------------------------------------------------------
For now he dont need to be virgil lol. Just clear or pass 5 yards to someone who can.

We don't require a centre half that can ping a 40 yard pass to the chest of the attackers, just a defender who defends is more than enough for now.
Thiagos passing has been fecking awful first half, as has Robertsons.

A fourth choice as good as VVD? That's just unrealistic.
Lovren is the best level we’ll get as a fourth choice CB. Wrong move not keeping/replacing him
Phillips would look incredible in bottom half side that sits deep like a Burnley or Palace where he’d rarely get exposed for pace.
Our system is not made for him at all but he’s still doing a really good job.

So there are 4 virgils out there ? Come on
I'm more than happy with Phillips as fourth choice. In any normal season he wouldn't have to play many games and if he does, it would hopefully be alongside VVD.

Escalated quickly
It takes away quite a large part of our system not being able to hit Salah and Mane.
I'm still happy though, Wolves are awkward as fvck to play against.
The major worry is that Gomez and Matip are too injury prone, and basically should be considered our 3rd and 4th choice. We need a quality CB who has no injury record
fack me already misplaced pass take some facking care,.

This is the point, he’d be playing with a better more experienced partner and in VVD’s case - the best in the world!
He’s been playing with midfielders, kids and a player new to the league.
Yet he’s not good enough and we should have the 4 best CB’s in the world in our squad!

I suspect it was the £100k a week we were paying him to be 4th choice that was the problem.
Lovren contributed a lot more than a number of £100k per week players we have now to be fair.
Are we forgetting how much of a liability Lovren could be? Remember when he got subbed off at half time he was so poor
I think its pretty clear someone will be brought in as a 4th choice, kabak most likely.
Phillips has done fantastic for us and hats off to him for what hes done. Hes probably earned himself a move to a prem league team in the summer but even he will know his long term future isnt with us.
Lads enjoying it while it lasts. And hes doing a fine job too.
Has to be a shout to cut matip and get someone more reliable too. I think he's quality but just can't play often enough
