The Phillips sacrifice
The half an hour Kalvin Phillips tucked under his belt last weekend should prove a crucial milestone in his journey back to Leeds United’s first team. The next question for Jesse Marsch is whether that comes today or in another 16 days’ time at Selhurst Park.
Historically, the England international has recovered quickly from injuries and hit the ground running. Based on Marsch’s comments and last weekend’s run-out, he looks a very good bet to start at Vicarage Road.
