Kalvin Phillips

[Carrick Dave]

Only issue is Jimmy is "ill" according to Bielsa and Harrison has an injury and could have only played vs Watford if absolutely desperate.

So no guarantees either lf them make it, especially Harrison.

Any idea what the Harrison injury is? I thought they'd just been given a rest at the weekend.

From what I gather it is the hangover from Covid, so hopefully with an extra couple of weeks to recover he will be fine

Shame for KP, as he misses a few caps.

But he needs a break and should come back fresh and rejuvenated.

Southgate will maybe need to turn to Eric Dire again for his second pivot

Gotta get those 8 defensive players in somehow

At least Kalvin won't be getting tapped up by Grealish, Walker, Stones etc

KP is struggling with a hip injury.

Raph, Klich, have also struggled with hip injuries last season or so.

You know what the most common cause of hip issues in athletes is?

Overuse . . . Funny that

Leon is not a jealous type Swannie.

Everybody knows his admiration for Kalvin & mine too now

[SG90]

I actually agree with Bielsa resting him. Those 4 weeks off would've done him the world of good. He was overplayed at the Euros and crying out for a break. Hopefully he comes back at his best now.

[Irish Ian]

Didnt miss him today. Just the way the game went.

I hope a few of us whole default position is to find fault with the manager take that on board.

The more Struijk or Koch play DMF the less we'd need Kalvin, Anytime you have to switch payers around you need time for it to come to fruition. Struijk much better this week though thought he played a touch to far forward first half.

Struijk, whilst probably the best we have at DCM who’s not injured at the moment, is a long way short of what we’ve come to expect from Kalvin Phillips. He had a reasonably comfortable game today because there was very little press from Wolves. But don’t be fooled, in my opinion, his positioning and game reading is a long way short of what it should be in that position. Struijk is a very capable central defender but he is in no way a perfect substitute for Kalvin in that position full stop. Hopefully Phillips will be back for the Norwich game and we’ll be able to get square pegs in square holes again.

What a man

[billysboots]

Have we ever tried them both together in midfield?

No we haven't, would give Phillips a licence to get forward more.

What a man

Fantastic guy

[YorkshireTea]
