Fabian Delph

Do you actually believe we'll win the "premiership" with the current squad

We should have won it last season.

The only rival that has strengthened so far is Arsenal with cech. I can't see Chelsea getting so lucky again with Terry and Hazard

The only player I worry about is Toure. The stupid comments have stopped but can he play at his old level again. Have to be worries about that.

 

[Barcon]

Of course not, I don't believe we'll have Pogba, de bruyne and sterling in it though. I'd be very happy to be wrong though

Then why ask "Do you actually believe we'll win the "premiership" with the current squad", if you don't think we will be contesting the premiership with the current squad?

Has Delph had second thoughts now and is staying at villa,was he plan b option now on to plan c..

 

[BucksBlue]

I for one, am happy he's "changed his mind" after seeing his dismal performance in the FA Cup final, against a decent team, he bottled it every time he got anywhere promising, God knows what we saw in him

He does lack Joey Barton's passion it must be said.

United with Schweinsteiger, Depay and probably Schneiderlin

If you don't back yourself and your talent on the big stage then you had better stay where you are. Which he has. It also means he was never right for us.

It also shows that Sterling does back himself and the media shitstorm hasn't fazed him. Which also given his talent does mean he is right for us. Chuck the saved cash his way and sign him up.

 

[FanchesterCity]

At least England beat the Aussies ......

And in some style!

 

[Sergi0 Na5r1]

If you must blame someone blame Micah for opening his big gob ;)

 

[George Hannah]

Or maybe not

I think there is a story to yet be told which will make sense of this, hopefully that it's connected with us signing Pogba and Delph not fancying his chances of playing much.

As a 'confirmed flapper' this will get a bit of stick: But the blind optimism of some on here is just as bad as the pessimism I'm sometimes guilty of.

Serious question to the optimistic, here:

The portent of this signing going to shit is foreboding and ominous. How are your alarm bells not ringing that the summer is going the way of 2012?

This summer is going to be a disaster you can see it just the way it's panning out. Most on here will still be clinging onto hope come 2nd September
