Question Mark Philips-Fine Lines

[Muttley]

I am really pleased that Philips put most of his bad luck behind him and had a solid season.
This season, Philips as lost the ball 3/4 times to an attacker when trying to beat them being last man.
To which, the one on ones with the keeper were missed every time.
I wonder if just 1 or 2 were scored, whether you would all still be singing his praises.
A very fine line between success and failure as a Player.
Good luck for next season Mark, a great professional

I don't think I've seen Phillips try take a man on once this season. Confused by this post.

Not sure about the one on ones, but I agree that almost every game Phillips commits an absolute howler... and has always got away with it. Of course, if he hadn't have gotten away with it, he would go from hero to zero.

But then if Freddy and Timlins shots hadn't have hit the post last night we'd be at Wembley.

If and only. The 2 most useless words in the dictionary.

I think you're related to Luke Prosser.

I agree, if Phillips made more mistakes and cost us more he would be poorer than he is.

Id also add if he made less mistakes and played better he would be better than he is.

However if he plays at the same level constantly I dont think he will be better or worse.

Its a tricky one though.

I don't understand? - that applies to all players doesn't it?

Not if they'd gone wide!
