I can't believe what I am reading here.
Raphinha is one of the best players ever to play for Leeds. Certainly since the side that last won the league. Strolls into the Champions League side.
He's been our best player this season and by far the biggest reason we have stayed up.
He has never stopped trying like a lot of fans accused him of. He's never had his head turned for one second.
And as for Phillips, it's a no brainer that he's been selected for England. He's a guaranteed starter at the moment. And he plays a different position for England where he was our player of the tournament when we made the final doing it. Writing a player off after a few below par performances in a struggling side, after a pretty serious injury just shows how fickle fans are. And no wonder it's so rare to see loyalty from players. When fans can't even provide it in return when it costs fans nothing.

Well said.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Agreed, just not seeing Liverpool or City or Real or Bayern coming in for Raph right now. Still time, I suppose. As I said, no disputing his talent, but just because he turned it on for the past two games doesn't hide the fact he sulked and scowled his way through most of the games this year.

He sulked and scowled through every game last season too. That’s what he’s like on the pitch.
