With Kalvin Phillips edging closer to a move to Manchester City, questions are now being asked of Manchester United.
United may not be able to offer Phillips Champions League football or the money Manchester City will, but there’s no doubt he would become a regular at the club.
City is a different story, due to their plethora of talent in midfield.
talkSPORT pundit Tony Cascarino has now slammed Manchester United for not going all out to sign the England international.
“I don’t know why Man United have not made a move on Kalvin Phillips. They may say ‘well we tried to but he’d already decided on Man City’ but he is exactly what Man United need, for me,” said Cascarino.
Phillips would have been the ideal midfielder for Manchester United, with Fred and McTominay struggling to perform over the last few years.
Kalvin Philips was born in Leeds, he is a LUFC supporter and was a club idol. He goes to Man City with the best wishes of all the fans, so he can play at the highest of levels. If you know your football history Mr Cascarino, the you should realise that there was never a snowballs chance in hell of him ever wanting to play for Manchester United.
I’m sure we said the same about Alan Smith way back when???
Well said 👏 👌 👍
A pundit who as no idea. KPs granny val told him don’t go to scum. I can’t a billion quid a day would get t play in a scum shirt
Utd are a million miles behind man city and Liverpool. I can’t see utd figuring in premier league title race for a few years yet. KP is a winner and deserve his chance to win honours
