Man of the Match - Leicester (a)

Yes it was just that one early run, after that Mahrez barely featured, Delph definitely deserves MOTM.

Certainly. Some of his passes up the pitch were absolute peaches too.

Every team has an unsung hero, that being Delph. He has slotted in due to mendys injury and looks so comfortable. Well done Delph. Been very impressed with his attitude, he was one of the fringe players and one I think we all expected to leave in the transfer window.

Not voted, because I’ve only seen highlights of the match on the os. But of all players in the squad, Delph is definitely the revelation of the season, for me. He is the living example of Pep power.

Delph for me. What a revelation he's been at left back.

This is the hardest decision I've had to make this weekend. Delph, Dave, Sterling, Sane and Fernandinho were all fantastic but in the end I voted for Kev. He reminds me so much of Colin Bell in his prime. He has such fantastic drive and energy with sublime vision and the ability to make and create goals. What a player.

i voted for Delph and if he is only cover for mendy why on earth have no other managers seen it with delph at wing back the lads looks a season pro-wing back

but i have to say a very big shout out to merlin the magician if this was in wwe and pep the manager of silva then he has reborn him into a some really bad ass fighter the lad is now like a monster and tackle after tackle he is not giving up the runs from box to box 100% and taking no prisoners its joy to watch the new silva its best of both worlds he is pure silk with a sting and when under mancini and pellegrini there was a weakness in tracking back and tackling not now he has been reborn under pep

I think he's playing great, but is he playing as a wing back or a full back/ midfielder?
To me wing backs usually play as part of a back 5 and tend to go down the wings as is implied by the name . Delph is playing in a back four virtually never overlaps and tends to tuck inside.
No matter, whatever we call his position I agree he's playing great.

 

[chedinho]

Delph. Their tactic of getting Mahrez one on one to expose him failed time after time. Outstanding today

Mahrez was sublime, some of the touches and control were beautiful, then delph took the ball off him.
Delph for me.

Delph for me he has been solid every game he has played at left back what a surprise that has been and stayed fit as well.
