I don't disagree (lad was looking like a Viera regen yesterday at times) but if Ange really thinks he'd be down the pecking order and given we have zero European competition to give him a run out, I can see some sense in a loan.

But I'd much rather he get minutes with us and, vitally, PL experience.
Somehow I doubt Ange would have him down the pecking order. And even if he was, I'm pretty sure he would get plenty of meaningful sub appearances and the odd start. The kid has quality and stamina, two things that Ange wants in his players.
 
Philips for that money is an extremely smart signing
But it's no good to us for this season. It's going to take a few years before he's ready for the first team. He made 14 appearances for Blackburn last season. He's got a long way to go before he can be an answer to our defensive problems.

Yes, it's a good piece of business and we've recruited a young defensive talent but we've got to have CBs who can do the job in the here and now while this player develops.

What I liked is he said that maybe players won't like the way he wants them to play.
Hopefully no repeat of Conte's recalcitrant players.

Should have signed Tarkowski. A leader.

I think he means some may find it too hard or too technical and either won’t be able to grasp it or won’t be bothered to. A good approach as it gets rid of the grifters who only want to stay for the nice training ground and fluffy pillows.
