Kalvin Phillips, currently on loan at West Ham from Manchester City, faced criticism and backlash after a disappointing performance against Newcastle. The midfielder, who has struggled for form since joining West Ham in January, had a nightmare outing against Newcastle, which ended in a 3-2 defeat for his team.

Phillips, 28, was subbed on with West Ham leading 3-1 but ended up giving away a penalty that led to Newcastle’s second goal. He was heckled by a fan as he made his way to the team coach after the match, with the fan calling him “useless.” In response, Phillips reportedly stuck up his middle finger at the fan, drawing criticism for his reaction. Fans slammed Phillips on social media, with some calling his loan move the “worst loan of all time” and suggesting he should be sent back to Manchester City.

Phillips’ move to West Ham was intended to help him earn a spot in Gareth Southgate’s England squad for Euro 2024, but his poor form is casting doubt on that possibility. West Ham paid an undisclosed loan fee for Phillips and will cover his £140,000-a-week wages until the end of the season. However, his recent performances and behavior have raised concerns among fans and pundits alike.
