Yeah it looks like he played left towards the end of the season but he was scoring goals from there. We need another player on the left anyway and more goals which he brings.Thought he was played as an 8, didnt do much, got moved back to 10 and got back to his best?
Not entirely sure how transfermarkt defines its positions, but according to this he was AM the vast majority of games:

Dorrington and Takai I can understand but I'm not sure why Phillips is included after a very successful loan at Stoke.
He'd be 5th choice anyway, surely he's good enough for that?
100% we need someone for the left, though personally Id prefer someone who actually specialises there
Round peg = round hole kind of thing
If we got MGW Id want him in the 10, thats it (which as I said above, rasies questions around Maddison....)
What pitch time is he going to see if he's 5th choice?, unless we get a load of injuries which I mean is entirely possible I guess
We don’t need five centre backs. Without CL, chances are he won’t play a minute other than one or two cup games.
Spence more likely
To start a PL at CB ahead of him
That's because some people convince themselves every window that all the rumours are true and we can get Anderson, Wharton, MGW, oshimen etc and then when it doesn't happen they bitch & moan.
It's rinse and repeat every window.
Eight goals and seven assists in thirty two matches.
Had the asking fee and committed salary until 2028 been less I think Barca would have taken him.
Not suggesting we should, but he came off the bench in a lot of those thirty two appearances.
A goals and assist every three games is pretty good.
Maddison is class left
No we didn’t
We tried to sign big club players with a small club mentality. Classic Levy at the wheel. Fucked them both up
Depends how you define left, or what you want from that role
drifting in for shots/passes or dribbling the touchline and crosses?
In thinking of the LW for us now, Im thinking more "prime Mitoma" as a profile than "a #10 starting wide and drifting inside"
He has one of the highest g/a per 90 numbers in La liga.
I’d certainly fucking take him. Villa did and they loved him and wanted him again, and we are miles away from Villa atm.
The next "yellow" saga is about to start.

Oh right ok then
Probably not a lot apart from some late minutes and maybe the odd early cup appearance but that's pretty much what you need from a 5th CB.What pitch time is he going to see if he's 5th choice?, unless we get a load of injuries which I mean is entirely possible I guess
But that would give him time to train with and try to impress RDZ.
Maybe get some minutes with the U21's at times to keep sharp?
We can't go into a season with just 4 CB's and I personally think Phillips is good enough to be trusted should he be called upon, so i'd much rather that then spend more money on yet another young CB.
There comes a time when we've got to start giving our youngsters a chance.
The classic "blue and yellow" will now become "brown and stinky"
Because we all know its a load of shit
After the past two season, I'm not sure we can rely on just 4 CB's with our medical team.
Phillips is young and HG, I think, which would help the squad places, no?
I'd rather give him the chance, then spend money on a foreign 21 year old CB.
Is that what United did last year? Without any European football then went out and bought Mbeumo and Cunha because they were serious and paid a shit load of money to the players, their agents and their respective clubs. No reason we can't do the same. Move early and let the rest of the league play catch up.
I don’t think he’s vastly different from Mitouma there… he’s a tricky player that can go either side and beat a man
Yeah but the odd min here or there isn't going to anything for young players, it's either he goes into the first team with a plan for him to get regular mins or he goes out on loan again to play consistently.
Next season there's going to be reduced mins so he's only going to realistically get a couple of cup matches at best and even then that's probably not realistic
I mean 4CB's in a 40-45 game season is totally fine.
We’ve got about 20 games before Jan window opens. We don’t need five centre backs
Agree on a foreign cb
