Holloway finds Phillips positive in Blackpool defeat

Blackpool boss Ian Holloway was pleased with Matty Phillips' performance in defeat to Blackburn Rovers.

Holloway was delighted with the former Wycombe Wanderers winger's display.

He told the Independent on Sunday: "Well done to young Matty Phillips though. We signed him on deadline day from Wycombe.

"He is 19 and I threw him on as a late sub at right-back, a position he's not really played before. He did great, scored a super goal and I'm excited about seeing what he can do over the season because the lad has bags of talent."
