The kid did good.

Been saying for a while to keep an eye out for Kalvin, he went to school with my son a really nice grounded lad who grow up in Farnley , another quality local lad whose destined to follow the likes of Milner and Delph

You mean he's off to Aston Villa?

Doh!

Two quality strikes. Knowing how Redfearn rates and trusts the younger players, iIf and when he's ready, I'm sure Redders will give him his chance.

Be great to see a first team with lots of youth talent coming through............Mowatt, Cook, Taylor, Philips, Walters, Dawson. Has to be the way forward and the core of the team, supplemented by quality signings like Silvestri, Antenucci etc.

Thanks for posting the videos. Loved the beautiful second goal. The academy is doing such a great job. The bonus being that the guy who helped develop these kids is now in a position to bring them into the first team. Things are looking very bright for the future.

Shame a section of our fans don't give the young un's time to settle when they arrive in our first team but then have alot of patience for the likes of Brown, Pugh, Tonge, etc

Todays player.

Key player this season and a regular starter.

Polarising figure is the young lad.

"Leeds lad" which is a double edged sword, some give more patience, others are more critical.

Certainly hit and miss, his rashness is a concern and has been for a while. But his blood and guts attitude shows some of the fire perhaps a few of his teammates could do with.

Where do people stand on Kelvin Phillips?

As I’ve said before I’m somewhat bias when it comes to Kalvin, I don’t understand the stick he gets from some quarters, sometimes when he’s had a good game

He’s Leeds through and through, had a tough upbringing, wasn’t picked up by Leeds until he was 13/14 Captained pretty much all the teams in the developement squads and scored plenty of goals, usually playing in the number 10 role. Yes he can be inconsistent, partly due to his age but changing positions every week can’t help and sometimes he can be rash but that’s the fact he’s passionate about the club.

IMO Kalvin is a very good young player, will get better and more consistent as he gets older and plays with better players and I wouldn’t be surprised that one day he Captains the first team.

A good player but nowhere near the finished article yet. Fans should get off his back and allow him to develop and accept that he will have poor games sometimes. A tough time at the moment for TC to fit his preferred players into a formation as I think everyone would prefer Saiz in the no.10 role, and that is not anything against Phillips but more the fact that Saiz is our best no.10.

The neck

[The Subhuman]

Good on the ball, poor off it. Maybe should not be playing deep as he's an attacking mid. Not a box to box CM which we lack

[Cjay]

Oops, thanks whoever corrected my spelling.

[Haighy]

Being Leeds through and through doesn't make him a good player !
I like his physicality in the middle because we need that!
But for me he's a liability.
Jury's still out... !!!

Missed him out last night.

He was superb.

Tackled strongly, did his job defensively and crucial in the 1st goal.

Our most improved player from last seasons squad

[NorfolkWhite]

Has a great attitude to the game and respect him for how he has continued to apply himself through some pretty fierce criticism, shows plenty of character at a fairly young age. Does need to develop some consistency but there is undoubtedly the makings of a good player in there.
