Sky Sports pundit sets Leeds star ‘Fantastic’ challenge to prove recent doubts wrong
Leeds United midfielder Kalvin Phillips has started this season superbly and earned his second England cap on Thursday.
Despite his success, there have been many doubts over his ability to perform at the highest level for club and country.
After a slow start against Manchester City, doubters started to appear on social media – a group that continued to criticise during the 3-0 win over Wales.
Sky Sports pundit, David Prutton has claimed that Phillips has a “fantastic challenge” ahead of him, to continue proving those doubters wrong.
“You look for a player that can dominate the game and make the team tick and opponents will then try and stifle you like Man City did to Phillips on Saturday night,” he wrote for the YEP.
“That’s the next challenge for him, to be able to outthink opponents that don’t want him to play well within the framework of what his manager wants.
