Well. Just read his explanation. I guess his emotion as a Villa captain took over last week. Quickly realizing he could miss out a unique opportunity to challenge in the very top of England and Europe.
Ok. I can except this. And if I couldn't it would be my problem. He's a City player now. I'll support him and I sincerely hope he will keep developing himself to become a legend with us.
I think he definitely had second thoughts but look at it like this:
We'd been snubbed, for want of a better word, at he 11th hour! Something no one at City would have second guessed!
The rubber gloves were laid out, Blue carpet at the ready, etc..
And all of a sudden there's a spanner thrown in the works!
Delph, as with our other targets wasn't a whim on the spur of the moment! This was in the making way back!
So, what do Txiki & Co do now? ..say, 'well, thank you very much and good luck captaining Villa Fabian'?? ...I fucking think not!!
He may well have had 'second thoughts' but when we earmark a target nowerdays it's not dead till its September 1st!
We've turned his head with top notch negotiation when there was a glitch!
Ultimately, our execs answer to the Sheikh and someone in our hierarchy has told some other fucker "get this done and quick"! .. So it's been
turned round and pulled out the fire!
We don't fuck about anymore! So, for the press, the change of heart story fits nicely!
But I'd be amazed if this was all the players doing!
