Can’t say I’m surprised.

Too inconsistent, unfortunately. He’s not a regular international player either, 16 caps in total.

Hasn't really been in the Scottish national team since September 2019. Not so much "missed out" as "never in the running"

Last game he played for them, when ever that was he played a shocker apparently.

Asked not to be considered in 2019 for personal reasons. He got a lot of stick playing for Scotland as he was playing under his Matt Phillips alter ego rather than Matty Phillips  ;D

To be fair, he is about as Scottish as my left nut.

Lets be honest Phillips may have found some form this season but he's a shadow of the player he once was, they have far more better options than him.

Four relegations on his CV I found out tonight. Three different clubs too!

Definitely one of our better players. Can carry the ball forward and creates a goal threat. Key player next season.

Bit of a Nigel Quashie isn’t he. A good championship player who sometimes looks like he can step up but not consistently enough.

NQ was in the directors box last night, or it was someone who looked very much like him in a mask. Didn't know he came to our games.

NQ considers himself a Baggies fan now in retirement i believe and i'm sure his kids are all Albion fans too from his Twitter pics. He is very fond of us since playing for us.

He’s a West Brom fan so it quite possibly was him.

On the subject of MP, what a comeback.

Until recently the only thing he was beating was his eggs, but that was the old MP last night and he has been like a new player.

Runs a football academy over in Halesowen too from memory.

He always does this when he needs a new contract and then disappears for the next two years. If he is staying he should be on a 12 month deal at best and ideally heavily incentivised to pay as you play scenario.

He signed a new contract last season another 3 years I believe

He has 1 year left on his current deal. Use him for the EFL campaign and be done.

Yep 3 year contract signed in 2019 one more year and time to move on I would suggest

Thought he was our best player today. Good use of the ball and created a lot of danger. Unlucky his shot came off the post.

He's played pretty well for the last few months. Absolutely baffles me how people shout for Diangana, Grant, Robinson to play in his place. He puts a shift in, protects his full back and puts some cracking balls into the box. I'd be more than happy for him to be on the teamsheet come August.
Allllllll aboard

I see on Instagram he's signed an extension until 2024. Not happy at all with that
