Kalvin Phillips no longer under the radar, says Gareth Southgate
Leeds United’s Kalvin Phillips is no longer under the radar as a midfielder who can do it all for England, says Gareth Southgate.
“Not so much, I think when we have worked with him earlier in the season we came to the end of the matches saying this boy is going to be a really important player for us,” he said.
“He can do every aspect of the game. He can break the game up. He is diligent and, of course, at Leeds they play one-v-one and man-for-man marking so he tracks his runners.
“He’s got a good passing range and he has a goal in him. The role he plays for his club is normally as the pivot, a little bit deeper. But he can get forward and his set-play delivery is good.”
