Fabian Delph

[mcfcdaytona]

yes he does qualify as hg

But he would still only be a squad player - so why pay over double for a slight improvement that is still not in your starting XI

 

[Super David Silva 21]

How on earth have we gone from Pogba to Delph???

Delph took almost 2 seasons to settle at Villa, had one decent season last one.

Have Wilshire over Delph and i hate the Jack.

Delph isn't an alternative to Pogba. If anything he's a potential squad replacement for Lampard/Milner. Kids got potential, we've been sniffing around him since his Leeds days. More mobile than Fernando, much younger than Fernandinho, £10M outlay is nothing nowadays when you've got the likes of Barklay being quoted at £30M & Schneiderlain at £25M. His success might all rest on his ability/mentality to be a squad player until he's at the level to be first team automatic pick, Sinclair & Rodwell struggled with this as did AJ. Sometimes a gamble is worth considering.

 

[Manchester_lalala]

If we land our main targets, Delph is a snip at 10 million. Squad player, English and at a bargain price considering the rates for English players.

 

[Neville Kneville]

If true, it would be an absolutely brilliant signing at that price.

In the past few seasons, on the occasions when Villa have got their shit together & played well, Delph has been absolutely outstanding in the middle of it all. With vastly superior players around him, you would imagine he would reach that level more often. Fills an otherwise empty space. Bargain if true.

A few have pointed it out but it needs to be said again that Delph or Wilshere are not instead of Pogba, they are as well as.

Milner/Lampard need replacing.

 

[Marvin]

What are we waiting for then? Some players improve, and he certainly has. Couple of seasons he fouled everything in sight, but he's developed into a good around midfielder. An alternative to Fernandinho. If we are going to win Cups, we need hungry players who have got enough quality.

Hope this puts an end to the whole HG madness. 10M for Delph, I hope Txiki tests RM with a 35M bid for Isco. No need spending 50M on sterling just because he's home-grown.

 

[machine9]

Him from the evening news as got a point ,would he get in barca ,madrid ,munchen,i doubt it.he would be a back up and for the money do we care just take him and see if he can go up another level.

There is when its a requirement to play in the league.

We have to have home grown players so forget wanting Isco instead of Wilshere or Delph.
