In our opinion, the fact that Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur were unable to sign Ashley Phillips during the summer transfer window is not a major setback for any of those clubs.

It’s possible that the defender won’t be ready to play for either Tottenham or Chelsea’s first teams for quite some time. His development still has a ways to go.
