If Delap has kicked out at another player and got a red card when we are 4-0 up away from home he doesn't deserve a first team place imho.

There are plenty of players that learnt to manage their aggression so that it was more of an asset than a liability. I hope that he is one of them because he is a born finisher but a young man with plenty of developing to do, as all 17-year-olds are.
Watched the incident again now, and I was wrong. Very wrong. Incredibly stupidThat is a very very generous interpretation of what happened.
Very young to be leaving your place of birth and then moving on after only a few months to another clubSigned as a 13 year old and played 5 months with us before signing for United.
And that would be right. The development of Delap will require a firm hand, at times, I think.I think Delap's kicked himself out of any significant involvement against Cheltenham tbh. Pep cares about stuff like that.

Maybe. But I would still love to see him bag a hatto on prime time BBC1 on Saturday night.I think Delap's kicked himself out of any significant involvement against Cheltenham tbh. Pep cares about stuff like that.

Possibly, but then he picked him against Bournemouth a few days after he got sent off the first time against Derby.

You can take out a red card from a player but you can't put a hat trick in his boots. He a 17 ffs. People saying he will not do it here cause of 2 reds, but he is banging them for fun.

It looked more petulant than out right aggressive, and all part of maturing as a player and a person. I think he's a young man who deserves a place in the first team squad so we can work on the weaker parts of his game.If Delap has kicked out at another player and got a red card when we are 4-0 up away from home he doesn't deserve a first team place imho.
I for one certainly wouldn't turn my back on such a promising young talent, without giving him the chance to learn from his mistakes.
