NP to Derby on Loan, good luck to the man!

Feel sorry for him now tbh.
Let him leave permanently for whatever someone want to pay.

That guys had more loans than Donald Trump.

Another CB gone. what's the plan if Virgil and/ or Konate get injured?

I’m sorry but how can you possibly feel sorry for Nat Phillips? You talk like we have him locked in a dungeon without allowing him any access to the outside world.
If he wanted to leave all he had to do is put in a transfer request and force a move. The fact he hasn’t tells me that he’s been happy to be where he is.
Not all players are desperate to play week in week out, some are happy to take a wage and have a career whether they play or not.

Liss you feel sorry for him? He’s been on huge money for years. Why feel sorry.

I don't know if the Club has an option for an extra year on his contract but this is his final year on it and he is a free agent next summer! So weird we didn't sell him for 6 million £ last year when we knew he will never make it here and that he is out of contract soon. Now he leaves for free and we cover 60% of his 65 000 pr. week wages for the rest of the year. Good luck Nathan Philipps! YNWA mate, thanks for the decent performances when we were down to the bare bones. Gave it his all!

That is tru, whilst I do feel a little sorry for him, he did sign a big long term deal a few years ago which is probably higher than most are willing to spend.

BP I totally agree. There are people in this world that everyone should feel sorry for. A footballing millionaire with limited ability is not one of them.

65K A week contract that he was forced to sign at gunpoint.

I think if we worked out how much he's paid to minutes played he’s probably one of our best paid players over the last 5 years.

He played his part in the defensive crisis a few years back and got rewarded with a new contract, probably on much higher wages than most clubs we would otherwise pay despite him being (IMO) a PL level defender, at least in a low block system anyway.
Probs why he's still with us.

I reckon Klopp typed up Nat Phillips' contract himself.

On the plus side he'll have no issues getting oasis tickets ;)
