Delph

[M18CTID]

City are. And I am. It would be a great signing.

I said previously that I reckon he can do a job for us but when it was announced that he wasn't coming last week I wasn't too bothered. Would be piss funny if he joined now though - only at City and all that - and unlike some fans, I don't think he owes anyone an explanation if he's changed his mind.

 

[BlueDejong]

Wow.

 

[cibaman]

Perhaps they're just cleaning it?

 

[bugsyblue]

Hopefully the blue carpet is out for Dzeko walking out the door...

 

[Stephenhakin]

Get in. Ok like I said earlier I don't live there anymore. So is thing something that happens when a signing is announced?

 

[markbmcfc]

good source on facebook who seems on the money reckons delph has just arrived in Manchester!

 

[Blue Smarties]

Just a thought.....IF it was true why would he need to have another medical,unless he did fail the one last week?

He didn't do it, did he?

Just wondering if the reason it been kept quiet is if Jovetic is off to Villa as part of the deal?

MCRJON has just said not to get his name on a shirt over in the Jovetic thread (well 40 mins ago). They potentially brought Delphs replacement last week, and would need to bring in a forward for Benteke

I don't think so. Delph is only £8m - are we going to sell Jovetic that low? I'd have thought at least 10.

I also don't see Jovetic as the kind of striker that tactics tim likes. plus wages would be a problem.

Jovetic has been gone for weeks, it's always been Italy.

Maybe we just offered him more money. That makes people change their mind in every walk of life.

This thread is proving to be a welcome distraction from the shafting we're getting at Lords

Nothing on KDB ?

We it would mean we would surely get money from the deal if say Delph is 8 and Jovetic is 10/12? I agree they're not like for like, but maybe he's going to try something different? Hell what do we know!! :)

 

[Thaksinssoldier]

Was it ever disclosed why he changed his mind the first time round?

He claimed he read a Villa forum and had insomnia due to the comments so changed his mind. I shit you not.

 

[DiscoSteve]

some money going on Delph now Slybet down to 1/3

Or he's seen us sign Sterling and Villa sell Benteke and thought, I could be a Championship player with Villa after this season, or a Champion's League player with City...

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Nothing on KDB ?

Nothing but positive.

United proving a big help!

 

[yeah whatever !!]

Maybe the lad was given assurances about Benteke and he had to play the club rules and come out with that statement. I think he should be respected rather than we dont fucking want him here.

Gotta feel sorry for Gobby Agbonlahor if this is true.. was only on telly yesterday saying Delph deciding to stay means that Villa are a big club

A wise man once said, if it looks like bullshit and smells like bullshit, it's probably bullshit.

I dont think you need to be wise to work that out fella..;)

Well I thought that TH...but I just thought that may have changed with Villa about to get a few bob from the Benteke deal
