Leeds United midfielder Calvin Phillips has performed well in the 2020-21 season, helping the team to a good ninth in the league. Phillips also earned the nickname "Pirlo, Yorkshire" for his unique style. In an interview with The Athletic a few days ago, Pirlo said that he believes that Phillips's style is very rare in the Premier League, but it is still different from his style.
Pirlo said: "Yes, in the Premier League, players of this style like Phillips are very rare. Over the years, more and more different styles of midfielders have emerged, and Phillips is like a regista. I'm still different from his style, and his technical characteristics are not the same as mine. You often see that kind of box-to-box midfielder, like Lampard. ”
Referring to the possibility of coaching abroad, Pirlo responded: "I may go abroad, I have lived in the United States for three years, so I don't have any problems with my English, and I can also speak French." I felt like I had no problem going anywhere to coach. ”
