Want to shout out ed001 who was the first to wax lyrical for Nat Philipps. He has risen to the occasion each time he has played this season and has gotten better every game. Even his passing has improved each game. Goes to show you don't need insane pace to be a good CB.

He was very good tonight, he’s someone who looks as if he is fighting for his right to remain a part of this squad. Clearly been doing some work on the training ground and it showed. Even when he was close to getting done he used his nouse to slow the play down. Hope he can keep up the hard work and win Jurgen over.

Risen to the occasion? We lost 3-1 last week and he was skinned for their first goal; by a quick player, admittedly.
He might be ok alongside the likes of VVD as a back up.
He's not good enough, in my opinion.

Really and good solid player. The lack of pace will flair up now and again but that can be countered with pace beside him. Kabak has stepped up at time but it's unfair of us to judge each of them as though they are each playing alongside vvd.

He’s a good back up. Got found out massively in that first leg vs Madrid, though he wasn’t helped in any way. I’d keep the boy 100%.

His passing has improved so much

Klopp took kabak of twice never phillips tho.

Dezykid, Phillips staying on instead of Kabak doesn’t mean much . It is all about strategy. IMO, Klopp takes Kabak off cos he needs Phillips height in case crosses are being spammed in for him to defend or for him to attack offensive set pieces should we need a goal. These scenarios are planned in advance if the situation in the game calls for it. Just my opinion.

Spot the odd one out -
VVD, Gomez, possibly Konate, and errr Phillips.
Hmmm?

Nat Phillips reminds me of Larry Lloyd. Paisley sold him to Forest because he didn't suit our high line. At Forest Lloyd looked very good in a defence that defended deep with the play always in front of him. Phillips is the same. Would be brilliant in a defensive team ie Palace of West Brom say but doesn't have the pace of mobility to play in a defence that defended high and has "full backs" who play as wingers. e
I think he will go on and be a premier league player but unfortunately for him I doubt it it will be at Anfield.

Exactly what I was intimating redwayne, I wasn’t being nasty or anything about Phillips btw.
Don’t forget too, we might still have Matip at the club if he isn’t sold. That’s not a given at all.
The ideal is that you play a style of football that everyone can fit comfortably in with and players can be interchanged.

Whos going to offer money for Matip? I think Matip, VVD and Gomez will all be at the club next season and Konate will come in too. Davies and Phillips will be sold to help fund Konate and Kabak won't be signed. That would be a top top class centreback 4 at the club.

I think Phillips is the one positive out of this horrible season.
