"I know that I need to be playing games and competing every weekend. I'm going to have to make a decision on [my future] over the next months. He [Gareth Southgate] just says that for me to keep my spot, I have to be playing games. That's what I want to do. I have agreed with Gareth on that."

Pep Guardiola admitted that they informed Philipps about the possibility of selling him in the summer. However, the midfielder opted to stay and fight for his place at the Etihad.
