Kalvin Philips has Irish roots. Confirmed by his mother on Twitter. Jamaica trying to persuade him to declare for them. Ehh I wouldn't usually be one to beg but I think it would be hilarious after losing out on Rice to get a better DM instead He could be dangling carrot for England but honestly as leeds fan I absolutely love KP

Few articles about his dual Jamaican/English status, but no mention of Ireland. Hardly worth a thread of his own at this stage, it reads purely as levering England to me, much as Wilson did and that worked

He's over 3 years older than Rice and has only ever played in the Championship thus far, perhaps a bit of a stretch to suggest he's better. In any case, if he is eligible then he's one we've missed out on, because there's not a hope in hell he'll be declaring with Leeeds just having been promoted.

We're decent enough..

I don't think Wilson ever claimed to be eligible for Ireland, O'Neill just suggested he might be. In fact I believe Wilson was actually the one who subsequently confirmed he had no Irish links.

KP is quality. Can’t see him playing for us but he would be an upgrade on what’s currently there

He is Jamaican on his dads side so must be his mum maybe. No doubt he is more English or Jamaican and he is very close to a call u in the next year. And yes I think he is better than Rice. Stating that as an opinion and not a fact. 1 year or 2 of prem football and under Bielsa and he takes Rice's place who I just dont rate. England is short on DM's so I suspect he will be capped very soon.

If he is in fact eligible then I agree with you. He is a very good player though. Edited by grannyrule - 03 Aug 2020 at 2:19am |

So according to Kalvin’s mum he does have an Irish grandparent. So, legitimately eligible it seems

I’d imagine he’ll be in an England squad soon. Hypothetically, if he did declare for us then he would certainly suit Kennys style of play
