Agreed. A shame he was never given the opportunity to prove himself for England in his prime.
This may be controversial, but Phillips in his prime was better than Owen in his prime IMO. Both in terms of being a better goal poacher, and being the more complete striker.

A fantastic player. I wouldn't mind him sat on our bench at all. He's not a 90 minutes player at Premier League level but he'd be a useful player to have on the bench to bring on with 15-20 minutes to go, you can guarantee he'll virtually always convert his chances.

One of the very few players to score over 30 goals in the premier league. Says it all really.

Still scoring goals at 38! I doubt that he will be able to make any impact in the Premier League at his age but he will certainly be a great assets in the Championship

I wish we had bought him the season we went up. I'm sure brom wouldn't give him the two year deal he was after.

I'd agree with that completely. I can't remember what year it was but he was the top scoring Englishman in the Premier League one year & wasn't in the England squad.
