Delap?

Wonderful news, watching his goal highlights he could be the real deal. Would love him to get a few opportunities this season to show what he can do.

One of the best talents in Europe,i suspect every top club has been monitoring....so this is amazing news.

As I said, when Cole Palmer signed his contract, you don’t give Academy players a five-year deal for shits and giggles.

Maybe I’m being naive but what’s the worst that can happen if Pep started him tomorrow?

He couldn’t have a worse game than some of them from last week!

Even if Kane’s coming there’s no reason this lad can’t get some minutes tomorrow?

He’s only had about 2-3 days training since a while out injured.

The worst that can happen is that the injury reoccurs and he’s out for ages.

The coaching .hierarchy clearly see him as a potential first team regular. No guarantees.

You said the "worst that could happen"

For a young boy he has had some very serious injuries. Out for a very long time as a kid at Derby.

We wouldn't risk him in a premier league game , without some match time to prove his fitness. Not even on the bench.

He had a spinal fracture

I believe Dublin GAA football team are looking for him on a loan.

Honestly. If that Derby 4-0 clip is where he’s getting his reputation from in here, we’ll I really didn’t see much in it tbh.

He got sent off against the same team opening game of last season but again I think there’s some needle there because he left them and they tried to rough him up

Lanky home grown player with a touch of snide.

The kid could save us £100 million in transfer fees.

I hope he does break through and establishes himself as a decent player.

I wouldnt describe him as lanky,he's more a unit.

Definitely some old skool about his play,and he enjoys a bit of rough and tumble......be interesting to see if he can transfer that to the senior game,where he will meet his match regularly and a few journey men will lap such up.
