Fabian Delph

[Jacob]

He's a DM worth a go with doucs and VVB flanking him especially in the away games we have lacked a proper DM all season

With respect to yourself, I don't think he's anything near a 'proper' DM given the way he's actually played ( it's that long ago, I know). He's given so many balls away with poor judgement/made fouls in poor locations resulting in goals. I know we're thin on the ground, but in a relegation battle, he's the last one I'd hope to rely on. Maybe we're beggars who can't be choosers... I'm still hoping we're not.

DM? Interesting…considering I’ve never seen enough of him to know his actual position. Would be useful if true.

He’s an experienced player who could be useful across a range of positions at this difficult time.

Exactly. While we may be frustrated with his impact while at the club, right now we're in dire need of central midfielders and he's one.

Maybe not but the choice is him or Gomes maybe he can be useful in a few games till Allan is back? We need someone to shield that back four, Gomes and Doucoure won't do it, it isn't DVB's game. I don't like Delph or how he has largely performed for us or been injured or unavailable but he was decent in a few games and we need some bite in these crucial relegation six pointers.

Do these positions include lying down? In his armchair watching Netflix? Being driven to his next rehab appointment?

 

[Dario Terracotta]

He'll fall to pieces again after twenty minutes knowing him.

 

[Diogenes the Cynic]

If he isn't planning to retire and go into media work or something then his contract running out and the need to put himself in the shop window as something other than a malingering parasite could be our chance to actually get a few decent games out of him.

But even as I write this I know it's a lie, even if he stays fit by some miracle he'll absolutely get himself sent off when the going gets tough.

He can cover a few positions btw too

Everton may have just been handed 11-game solution to their midfield problem

Fabian Delph has regained fitness and re-joined full Everton training at Finch Farm over the course of the current international break

He's back...Farrelly vibes lol

"Solution"... He's part of the problem tbh.

Words fail me . People are getting excited about the return of this parasite .

Wouldn't say it's excitement - more practicality that we'll have someone who can, in theory, cover positions we need cover in.

He's also gonna last about 20 min, so it's not like it matters.

He's shown enough class in the 72 minutes of football he's played for this club to get excited.

Signed in 2019, he‘s made 36 appearances….. Ive probably spent more time cutting my nails than he has playing in that time. What a signing.

The biggest impact he’s ever had here is being ridiculously sent off against Watford, without him and down to 10 men Everton won the game. What a signing.
