Good look to a stand up kid, who when fit, gave his all... he was also the best left in the country in the 100pts season..

We’ve maximised the signing and given Delph more medals than he probably could of hoped for... just pass the fecking medical (:

£10m isnt enough. Should be at least £12m for a england international!

Jokes aside I think it is good business. It is a fair offer for a player not in our plans that turns the wrong side of 30 this year with only a year on his contract.
Complete revelation in the centurions year and more than deserved his medals hes won.
Thanks Delphy
 
Good move for all concerned. He gets to join a top club and stay in the North West... Maybe not at our level now but still an underrated player and will do well for them. Good luck to him.
 
I think he could be a big miss. He seemed to be a big influence in the dressing and I think he is still underrated on here.

Would be good to see us have more English players aswell- obviously have to be good enough
 
Good luck to Delph, been a good player and served his purpose. He deserves more game time if he can stay fit, at £10m this is good business for City and Everton with 1 year on contract.
 
Yeah good luck to him. Perhaps hasn't played as much as he would've liked but he was a vital part of the best team in the league ever. You can't complain about that. He'll be a good buy for Everton.

Not impressed with City getting only £8m for a player who captained England earlier this year. We simply have no idea where negotiating is concerned.

He cost around that fee when we bought him 4 years ago so that fee will have been amortised by now.

So, that’s 8m profit and his wages off the books.

Essentially we’ve had 4 seasons out of a very good player for free.

Your comment looks a bit silly now doesn’t it?

Does Delph even get in the Everton team ?

Siguarddsson , Gomes , Gueye , Davis all likely to play ahead of him

Gueye is probably leaving and I'm not exaggerating when I say that Tom Davies is one of the worst players in Premier League history* (when your club-trained local lad can't even get some love from the fans you know he's awful). Add to that that Sigurdsson plays a totally different role, the midfield two could be Gomes-Delph, Gueye-Delph or Gueye-Gomes. Also,I don't think he'd have gone without certain assurances over game time.


* When I use that term I'm only counting players who actually got decent minutes for a club so no Ali DIa etc.
 
Good luck to the lad, a better player than many give him credit nationwide, his issue was always his availability rather than quality and desire. Still, played a hugely important part when needed. best wishes to him.

And good value for money as well. The fee still should be higher, but shows the club don't stand in players' ways when they want a move. Heck, throw in scoring the winner in their derby into the deal and call it done. All the best to the fella.
 
Vinny and Delphy were two vocal lads that is important in every dressing room. I believe Kyle and KDB will have to take the responsibility now.
 
Delph was vital in the season 2017/18.

Last season he lost his place and I thought he was so anxious to prove himself when he did play that he was reckless and we lost a bit of trust in him. Just my opinion. Good luck to him. Under-rated player, and will be a good signing for Everton. I am sure that he will get a god reception from City fans whenever we play them because he did well for us, and gave everything in a City shirt.
 
Fabian was lucky that the home grown squad rules forced City to buy, I doubt we would have otherwise. He is clearly a great guy and popular member of the squad and probably a good asset in the dressing room. He stepped in during the LB crisis and performed heroically for us, earned his medals that’s for sure. He never let us down for effort, made a few errors last season but his performance was hampered by injuries, needed to play consistently to be at his best especially in an unnatural position. I join most in wishing well at Everton and he will certainly get a good reception when he returns
 
Well at least the kids will be safe from measles at the Etihad now. He's an anti-vaxxer, the thick bastard.
