Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Phillips.
On the season, Phillips graded 3 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 0 assists and 5.59 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 22 → 3). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 26. At 30 Phillips is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 6 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Phillips missed 14 games through injury and 3 suspensions (muscle, achilles tendon problems, achilles tendon) out of roughly 46 this season. The 3 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Sheffield Utd finished 13th of 24 · a mid-table side
5.59 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 3 appearances.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 5.59 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 6.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 26.2 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.59 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
