[Article's prediction was right as Southgate called him up for both Denmark and Iceland matches.]

Graduate of Leeds Academy. Bielsa switched him from his previous box-to-box role to a more deep lying holding and defensive midfielder

He wins the ball back very effectively averaging 11.5 recoveries a game and averaging a big 9.1 defensive duels per 90

handed the maestro's baton, he's lived up to it and quickly became crack at starting the build-up and setting the beat

He makes the 7th most long passes out of all championship centre midfielders. This shows his incredible passing range, often switching play with 40 yard passes out wide to Harrison or Costa. This has become a hallmark of his play. Pulling opposing teams side to side by playing these pinpoint switches. Phillips can dictate the tempo of the game by speeding up play and going long with accuracy when needed, and also slowing down the game with short passes to keep control. He has an excellent sense of the rhythm of each game. He is the metronome for his team
