Sure you?re right and even though I do think highly of Phillips there is surely no way we can countenance having one player being paid so much more than everyone else?any ?ructions? would surely be entirely understandable.
What did you think he would be on? Probably took a drop to come here. I know he hasn't been the player we hoped this season, but at the time he represented solid championship experience and able to play in a number of positions, experience and versatility is worth a good wedge.

I doubt Clowes would "bust" the wage ceiling for Philips, some smart recruitment can get at least two very good championship players for that salary.
