Kalvin Phillips is facing disappointment as he is expected to be left out of today’s England squad due to his struggling performance on loan at West Ham United. Phillips, who joined West Ham on a season-long loan from Manchester City, has had a rough start with the London club, making mistakes that led to goals in his first two games and receiving a red card in another match.
In a recent game against Burnley, Phillips was substituted at halftime, further highlighting his struggles. As a result, Gareth Southgate is reportedly not including him in the upcoming England squad for friendly matches against Brazil and Belgium. This news marks the first time Phillips would be missing out on an England squad since before the 2022 World Cup.
Once a favorite of Southgate and the recipient of the England Men’s Player of the Year award in 2020/21, Phillips now finds himself facing a setback in his career. With a lack of game time and pressure to perform, Phillips’s confidence has taken a hit, affecting his gameplay compared to his days at Leeds United.
Despite the disappointment, Phillips must see this setback as an opportunity to turn things around. There is still a chance for him to redeem himself and earn a spot in England’s final squad for Euro 2024. By focusing on improving his performance and regaining confidence, Phillips can work towards making a successful comeback in his career.
