KSV Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 still not convinced because had a few decent performances at the back end of the season. Im happy for him to be a squad player but he should not be a starter. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Con Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 I'm really looking forward to seeing more of Delph. He got better and better the more consistently he played and him/Westwood/Sylla really seemed to click. I think if he works on his second touch a bit, he'll be even more dangerous going forward, absolutely love when he makes his mazy runs forward. You mean when he runs forward 20 yards, doesn't know who to pass to so either gets dispossessed or passes it 40 yards backwards to Guzan? Yeah, I love that too. 34 successful dribbles. Dispossessed 22 times. Turnovers 21 times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

praisedmambo Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 (edited) You mean when he runs forward 20 yards, doesn't know who to pass to so either gets dispossessed or passes it 40 yards backwards to Guzan? It is better to pass it to Guzan, who is on his team, than Suarez for example, who is on the opposition team. Additionally, he definitely made positive runs, getting beyond players and then passed it to teammates other than Guzan.

Popular Post GarethRDR Posted July 8, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted July 8, 2013 If he can add end product and more composure in the challenge, we'll have the player we paid for. For the first time, all the raw materials certainly looked like they were there at the end of last season. Fingers crossed his form continues along the upward trajectory. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRO Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 The signs towards the end of last season was good....he seemed to be improving. Needs to work on his composure. I've always had a soft spot for ball winners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amo69 Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Expecting a big season from Delph if he stay fit. Saw flash's last season to know he has the ability. Loved the way he skipped past players at times. Don't want to get to excited but finally seeing what all the hype was about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaGoMarching Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Huge season for Delph coming up, he must be near the end of his contract? a year left? He's got some real competition for his place but he started to show that he has enough quality at this level after a torrid time with injuries.

LondonLax Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 He will have to take a pay cut to bring him in line with the new players if he is offered a new contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCforever1991 Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 (edited) How much is he on? 45-50k ? edit: around 30k. Edited July 19, 2013 by AVFCforever1991 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayDeePee Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 maybe it is better late than never with delph in regards to his ability and wether he really is prem standard. needs to play out of his boots this season. I've been a delph hater for pretty much all the time hes been at the club but would love for him to prove me wrong and show he deserves to play in claret and blue.

Folski Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I'd be surprised if he's on more than 30k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Remember it was MON that signed him, mister 'i'll throw stupid wages at you if you sign for my team' Yeah and that all stopped when he left, Ireland, Hutton and Given are on far more reasonable contracts because they weren't negotiated by MON!

Condimentalist Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Delph was our best player in a number of games last season. Definite starter for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
