Fabian Delph

[maccavennie]

I still stand by that he won’t make it to May.

Of course he won't mate. We just need him to try and be available for 50% ofbthe remaining games as just a couple of performances like today will give us a greater chance of victory.

The man's body doesn't allow him to string 3 games together, let alone 9.

He was great today, fantastic actually but I'll be glad to have him off the wage bill

God I miss Gareth Barry

 

[Magnifico1988]

He was class today. Plays that role so well. Just unfortunately he can’t play the 9 games of the season we need him to play as injuries and stats say it just can’t happen. His experience was vital. The little touches and passes and blocks he made was vital. He is a class act when he wants to be. I can see why we signed him from that performance today, I’m just annoyed when never seen it week in week out. He shits all over Gomes.

When he did a slide tackle in the box did anyone else have their heart in their mouth for a split second

 

[royvernon39]

Played well but I would have Van der Beek ahead of him every day.

Allan and Delph must be two of the slowest midfielders around but they got stuck in
and disrupted United.

Absolutely. Having said that, my hearts in my mouth whenever the opposition cross the half way line, never mind when they’re in our box.

Waiting for the injury to be announced….

I was trying to work out whether it was a tactical substitution or an injury. He did not seem to be struggling while coming off, but the physio was there.

As others have said, he offered calmness and experience on the ball, so it was a positive performance for me. He could be useful to have for the run in.

We need as many players fit as possible to ensure we can field the strongest XI and have fresh legs.

 

[Sheedy's right knee.]

I think Van de beek could do a similar job in there to Delph, but with more legs and a better passing range. But he was integral to the win today. Disciplined and composed on the ball. Didnt chase the ball but worked hard and led by example. I was surprised he lasted 80 minutes I thought he would be subbed on the hour.

 

[flibbyflob]

A bit like Mina, when fit makes us better but you know in a few weeks he will be crocked again. Get rid.

 

[street end]

Played really well and obviously has that little bit of nous in that area of the pitch that we needed.

 

[Zeitgeist]

Pray he can stay fit, he is a proper midfielder.

 

[kenada_blue]

Made of pringles.

Said he needs a week off now.

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

Would be pretty ironic if him and Iwobi were the ones to save us this season

We could call it quits and wish them well in careers, to show then no hard feelings then show them the door very quickly.

Made of pringles.

Said he needs a week off now.

He said it in jest like.

He knows his injruy record and will be frustrated as anyone about it.

If we can have him for half of the remaining games that will be a huge boost as he does a job others do not.

100% serious. Surprised he wasn't airlifted out of GP
