Kalvin Phillips

£50m for a massive leeds fan. Good to see we've learned absolutely nothing.


Probably bullshit though, do we really believe big Hagers has made this yawkshire poodle a priority....

The thought of Ten Hag coming in and immediately demanding Kalvin Phillips and Christian Eriksen is £#%&!ing hilarious tbf. Not having it

One of the biggest and most effective cultural changes at United would be to immediately publicly end any transfer gossip for players we're not interested in.

Someone like Murtough or Rangnick should come out and categorically state we have no interest in this player, and its simply media hype. Would make us less of a laughing stock, and we'd get taken seriously as a football club.

Obviously it will never happen though, as the clickbait articles and social media attention that these stories gather plays perfectly into what the Glazers want the club to be - a vehicle to make them more profit.

The owners sicken me, and I honestly don't see a fix for this club until the parasitical Glazer disease has been eradicated from United's body.

Whilst I agree with what you're trying to achieve with this, it would quickly become a new twist on the same sad game.

The media keep on throwing out names, cross off the ones we say "£#%&! off, no" to and when we don't say "£#%&! off, no", there's your story.

I am not sure he is a ‘dyed in the wool’ Leeds fan tbf.

Could my sagiest moment yet this.

I think I called for the signing during the world cup, too...

He's coming home...

A slightly better The Scottish Player, but not the defensive midfielder he’s heralded as and I think we can do better for cheaper.

Big injury this year too, so can he come up that crazy Leeds intensity. For £60m, it’s an expensive gamble.

But I want ETH to get who he wants. I’d rather we signed players he wants that I don’t like rather than players I do the board just force onto him.

This is a Pochettino signing. ETH isn’t that guy. He wants good players.

If this happens I’ll give up on football btw.

He's from Leeds isn't he ?

£#%&! him btw, terrible rumour.

Not happening in a million years (and don't want him either).

Manchester United 'are considering a £50m move for Kalvin Phillips with club officials admiring the England star's control of the game... but there are concerns that he and his family are massive Leeds United fans'

Don't rate him at all. Runs about a lot, probably a slightly better version of Fred. £50 million

He's not better than Fred at all. Not even close.

He is £#%&!ing miles better than The Scottish Player though.

Like ETH would want him ffs.

He's £#%&!ing rubbish

At least he would put a shift in and puts himself about.

would rather take a risk on some younger, cheaper, unproven talent than someone we know isn't good enough to play for united.

scouts who actually £#%&!ing scout would be good.

I could put a shift in ffs (I couldn't)

Doesn't mean anyone should sign me.

...meaning I could imagine him playing for West Ham?

Doesn't mean he can't play for us also.
