Any reviews from Plymouth fans? The ones I’ve seen on X, which won’t be the best cross section, don’t seem overly flattering. I wonder what our views of Premier League Will Smallbone were on twitter.

Most of the information this guy puts out seems to be regarded as tripe by many on here, Is there much substance to this story do you think or is to be filed with the rest of his reports ? This seems to be an actual exclusive. All the other stuff he puts out there is just reworded from news that’s already come out - trying to pass it off as his own.

If we get him surely he's not going to go straight into the side for WBA?

A centre-half from Spurs - what could possibly go wrong?

I think that would be it for centre backs?

Potentially good loan signing, looks the business for his age.

Puts me in mind of a Ryan Shawcross, ie: loan a young defender off a top premier league club, he does well for us and chips in with goals too, we get promoted, sign him on a permanent, and he goes on to be a club legend... Can dream I suppose

Defenders don't really get them. Especially young defenders

He’s big enough to dominate in the air but little nouse as yet. We have young centre half’s as well so I don’t see the point? Gibson injured and were back to square one and an inexperienced average defence.

Hope he’s a bit better than the last Ashley who graced our defence…..

It’s all about positional sense and athletisism these days. That and being decent on the ball with good timing for a tackle

That and being decent on the ball with good timing for a tackle Until we play Sheff Utd and he’s matched up v Keiffer Moore. We do so well with Rose, McNally and Rose doing that. A dominant centre back essential. If they pass it about bonus.

Moore looked like he had won a prize to be a footballer for a day from a kinder egg

Fbref makes for interesting reading. Looks like he’s very good at winning the ball on the deck, top10%, but awful in the air, bottom 10% despite being 6ft 4. Poor passer. fbref.com/en/players/4f21d3af/scout/12193/Ashley-Phillips-Scouting-ReportGood option, but wouldn’t expect him to start many games unless he seriously improves with his passing / heading. Why don’t we go for aerially dominant centre backs any more? We should have signed Dickie when Bristol City did.

Maybe a bit of one to one coaching with Ryan will sort that out.

Players can progress really quickly at that age Last year being his first season of proper football will have been a big jump
