DelboyVilla Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 We've been conditioned to a certain way of thinking when it comes to wages, as we've seen player sit on top-half Premier League wages, when they were bottom-half standard. Delph may not be a top 6 talent yet, but he's definitely good enough for a top-half team. Top-half talent gets paid £40k per week +. I agree. We cannot judge Delph on the value we got from the likes of Ireland, Sidwell or Beye. We should with proper financial control be able to compete wages wise with the likes of Everton and Southampton not be paying Walsall wages to all. The high earners/no value players are slowly being removed. We are not going to to offering £200k per like Chelsea but we should be competing with our comtemporaries? And Delph is deserving of a certain level of wage in line with the pay he would receive at other clubs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heid3ster Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 We want to keep him, he wants to stay. Get it done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Delph is comfortably above league average in my opinion. If he wants to stay at the club long term, a wage befitting of that should be strongly considered by those holding the purse strings. Those that will hopefully be holding those purse strings for not a great deal of time longer. Consider what it would take to replace him. £10m and £60k a week? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troon_villan Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Why would he take a paycut He was player of the season last season and was exceptional for the majority of it If you did the equivalent in an average job you would feel entitled to a payrise It's not his fault he was offered ridiculous wages before above what he should have been earning at that stage of his development If you want to progress you have to keep your best players and Delph is one of the best midfielders we have at the club I am not saying he should take a pay cut, I just think that is the wage the wage bill has been going. How about a cheeky 10K p/w and a free parking space offer? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCJonah Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 A lot of talk about vlaar in regards to a new deal but for me I think delph is much more of a priority. He can sign an agreement to join another club in 5 months time. That's worrying and I'd be surprised if his agent isn't telling him to do just that.

Delph's good, but you can't see one of the big clubs coming in for him, and You more than get the impression he's dedicated to proving himself at Villa.

DCJonah Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 I can see a bigger club than us coming in for him, especially as he will be on a free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Will bag double figures now he has a proper DM behind him and he isn't having to play 3 roles. Get that contract on the fricking table. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCJonah Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I think 5 or 6 goals for delph this year. And I'm predicting another player of the year trophy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get that contract on the fricking table. Did he even get that many in league one? I think if he hits 6 he'll be happy and we should be too. He has talent and hopefully he'll get a little more freedom in midfield and feel less pressure to take chances he rarely gets. I think 5 or 6 goals for delph this year. And I'm predicting another player of the year trophy. Did I steal your thought or did you steal mine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
