The only options are that the current Champions of the Premier League keep playing a 19 year old that might be ready for League One within a year or two or they spend £3.7 billion and bankrupt the club. 

Tough call. You can see why we're flummoxed. 

[Ronnie Whelan]

The club don't want to get taken to the cleaners and in fairness, you can see how they are worried about being taken to the cleaners by clubs and agents.

 

The thing is most of the clubs we would buy from are up shit creek because of covid. Offer decent money and not piss off the Lille's, Sportings or PSVs of this world and they will most likely accept. We will need four top or potentially top centre halves for next season so it's an investment for the future.

 

I will say that I think we could be negotiating with clubs right now but the deal will be done in the final days of the window. Neither Jurgen or the owners are stupid. They know winning makes money and in a worst case scenario dropping out of the top 4 could be gigantic for us. Not signing a centre half, puts us at high risk of winnig nothing. Could be wrong, but I still feel we will sign someone. That's my gut feeling anyway.

He'll be awesome in a few years for a grog team. To slow to make it here with the backline we like to play unfortunately. Shame I actually thought he was a bit faster, but should fetch a decent fee in a couple of years time after a couple of loans.

I reckon Sami is quicker than Rhys now he’s that slow.  I honestly think he’s one of the slowest players we’ve ever had

Dreading him up against Martial or Rashford in the FA Cup game. He'll look like an astronaut walking on the moon while they fly past him.

Phillips is better than him.  I can’t really see why Williams keeps getting in ahead of him.  He’s painfully slow and can’t seem to adjust his game to compensate for it.

I agree. I'd take Phillips every time. Yes,he's slow but he's experienced enough to read the game a bit better and much more physical. Obviously I'd prefer neither but at a choice its always Phillips for me.

Potentially got Anfield to witness it first....

Off to Blackpool on loan.

I reckon Phillips stays as 5th choice now.

[Harry Squatter]

Don't see the point, just sell him as he's never getting near the first team. 

 

The club thought sending him on loan to Swansea would raise his value but he was awful and it did exactly the opposite.
