'Every cloud' - Leeds United fans look on the bright side as Kalvin Phillips suffers injury on international duty
Leeds United midfielder Kalvin Phillips suffered a dead leg while playing for England amid speculation over his future. Fans have been reacting on social media:
@FLOB_76: Made of glass is the lad.
@Simoncoston: At least he'll fail the medical in Manchester.
@Kalib_Downes: Sums up KP's season.
@VinceeyTrev: ....and the injuries continue even when the season is over.
@BeestonWhites: Might be a blessing in disguise meaning he can't move this summer.
@AidenLUFC28: Get better soon Kalvin Phillips, keep that beautiful smile on your face and come back stronger.
@CoryDixon12: Get his contract signed and wrapped up, rest up on holiday.. come back with some new quality players in squad and captain us to Europe.
@LUFCThommo: Needs a rest this summer Phillips! Four years of intensive Bielsa-ball seems to have taken its toll on the lad's muscles! The timing of these international games is a joke too.
@HowellsU: Don’t play him again, give him a rest now - we need him for start of season if he stays at Leeds.
@Pitbull1919: At least it'll prevent him being in the shop window any longer.... Every cloud.
@PeteStones123: That's Kalvin off the market.
@FogLUFC: Made of biscuits this lad.
@StephenAw85: That’s Kalvin out for the rest of the summer internationals. Get his contract signed and send him straight on his holidays now get him rested up and ready for pre-season.
@Topbrewer: Not played last 75% of Premier League games. Why was he starting tonight?
@AlanRiley_PM: A few weeks out injured will keep the vultures away.
@Leeds4Life: Great decoy by Phillips. Pretend to be injured to put off any potential buyers. Love to see it. Leeds through and through!
@Diddlysquattv3: Let’s hope his season is over. And he can enjoy the summer. Want him fit for new season with us.
@KnowlesM: Can't pass a medical at the Etihad if you've picked up a knock with England...
@Johnmjtjt1919: Come home Kalvin, sign a new contract. Go on holiday and come back refreshed and stronger for next season.
@Bothberie: I can't believe they broke Kalvin for a dumb international competition that no one is really interested in.
@King_Gelhardt: Why are we even playing these games... Give them a rest.
@MMMMMNoodleSoup: Nothing more “Leeds That” than your star player getting injured in the off season. Absolute solid start to the summer.
