Wainy316 Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Apart from the winning goals against Chelsea and Liverpool, I've pretty much repressed him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 (edited) Out of contract and available. Bring him home. 13 PL games on average in the last 7 seasons and an absolute foot note at every club he's been at. Will not be remembered anywhere.

Demitri_C Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 I think since his career at villa, he just went downhill. Sure he won stuff at cuty but didnt contribute much to them winning anything. He was a superstar in the making at villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only2McInallys Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 I thought for about 2 seasons he was our best player along with Benteke. The loss of him and Benteke and never finding good replacements was the reason we were relegated. I wonder if he can keep injury free, is he is worth signing? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hourihane probably offered us more at this level than Delph We shipped so many goals as Delph was so hopeless defensively and he offered little going forward either, all he had was a fancy but pointless dribble to get him out of trouble. We conceded nearly 200 goals in the 3 seasons he was a starter and he contributed 3 goals and 3 assists going forward 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcginn struggles bad in that side in my opinion. I think delph would be excellent in this team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
