There weren’t many standout players for Leeds United on Sunday as they were swept aside by Liverpool in a 3-0 defeat. However, Kalvin Phillips characteristically put in a very strong performance.

The 25-year old was left isolated quite often in the match, needing to control the midfield almost independently. Yet the England player of the year still showed his quality regardless. This led to Liverpool fans commenting on just how good he was.

Would LOVE to see Kalvin-Phillips at #LFC at some point. Such a strong presence on the pitch and doesn’t just blindly keep ping-ponging himself around.

“Would LOVE to see Kalvin-Phillips at #LFC at some point. Such a strong presence on the pitch and doesn’t just blindly keep ping-ponging himself around.” Wrote one fan while another expressed his desire to see Kalvin Philips in a Liverpool shirt. “Kalvin Phillips does some running for Leeds can’t help but think he’d flourish even more under Klopp. Great player.”

Leeds will obviously aim to keep Phillips at the club as long as possible, and the boyhood fan has no real reason to want to leave right now anyway.
