Pep Guardiola Explains Kalvin Phillips’ Struggles at Manchester City

Kalvin Phillips has struggled to adjust since his move to Manchester City last summer, starting just four games in all competitions last season. The 27-year-old was a crucial cog in Marcelo Bielsa’s Leeds side that finished ninth in their first season back in the top flight, but has failed to replicate the same performance levels at his new club.

Pep Guardiola has now explained Phillips’ struggles, saying: ‘Marcelo [Bielsa] gave Kalvin the best of Kalvin in his career. I’d love to have done with Kalvin what Marcelo has done to him. We have our own specific way to play and [he] sometimes struggles in a few things, while the previous [playing style] was perfect [for him].’

Phillips suffered an unfortunate start to life at City after a shoulder injury ruled him out for two months at the start of last season. Despite winning the club winning the treble, Phillps was a bit-part player with rumours circulating in the summer that the midfielder may be sold.

Liverpool Linked with Phillips

Liverpool were one club said to be interested in his signature but Guardiola revealed Phillips preferred to remain at the club and fight for his place. ‘The club spoke with him because he did not have many minutes,’ Guardiola added. ‘He said ‘no, I want to stay’.

‘We brought Kalvin here for his quality. He is open-minded, always wants to learn and wants to help. This is what we want to try to do.’

Phillips Set for Rare Chance

Phillips looks set to be handed a rare chance in the Carabao Cup against Newcastle United with first-choice central midfielder Rodri suspended after his red card against Nottingham Forest at the weekend. It will be a chance for Phillips to prove his worth and show Guardiola why he deserves more game time.
