Fabian Delph

If that's the case then i would prefer to just name a reduced squad rather than waste money on fees and wages for overrated english players who will never get a game

Home grown players don't have to be English.

Oh aye yeah, sure he loves being a figure of hate and ridicule over the few weeks because he said Welcome to Manchester and the lad literally pulled out when at the stadium

I'll accept your point there mate. And change my original statement to he got excited too soon. The one thing I have learnt in posting information is that it is better to hold on to it before posting for a while as things change so quickly.

I have only just started posting again and I don't know a lot about TH if I'm honest. Slightly reminds me of ajay a little but wit added youtubeness

Citymad........ You've just described Milner in your analogy of Delph.
He wasn't good enough either. The likes of those two aren't on the same wavelength as Aguero, Silva, Toure and Nasri. That's why all the intricate passing moves and intelligent play breaks down when they get involved.
The likes of Pogba, CavanI,Isco etc are class players who'd improve us.
Have a look at England play when they're around the box. No creativity at all.
You're right with your other point though. If the rags or Liverpool had enquired, he would have gone there. The difference is, they NEED someone like him, we don't.

Wtf is going on?. 11th July and nobody of any note signed, and this latest collapse just goes to show us that we're in a real battle to get any of our top targets, if Delph doesn't even fancy us.

he didn't fancy the idea of being a squad player which you cant blame the lad

Teams win matches. Squads win titles.

Think his point is that i.e. Chelsea have bought players (Fabregas and Matic) who directly strengthened their first XI, and the players already there became "squad players" or sold as a result.

Replacing a 4th choice midfielder (Fernando) with i.e. Delph, who would be the new 3rd/4th choice, obviously wouldn't make as much a difference as signing i.e. Pogba.

Even though you have a point, it's about time we improved our first eleven, and not just replacing a squad player with another squad player.

At least that's what I think he means, and he has a point.

But he should've realised that bluemoon27, instead of us getting a medical arranged for him. Seems a bit strange this sudden u-turn.

Yes I know like Clichy for example, what I meant was I would rather name 17 non-hg and promote the likes of lopes, pozo, ihenacho etc rather than waste money on mediocrity like Fabian Delph or Danny Rose.

It's a tad unfair to call Delph mediocre. He's an England international.

Not got as many caps as Zinedine Cleverley though

I know who he is. So does the owner of the site and various posters. We all vouch for him and his knowledge. That should be enough said. In fact there's not a single person who knows who he is who doesn't vouch for him. His record on here is also unsurpassed in accuracy
