Summer Transfer Window 2019

He won’t , the crowd will sus him out then turn on him - another bang average no mark. How anyone is trying to rationalize this out is beyond me.

Honestly if you can’t see any rationale behind signing a current England international with a winners medal from all 3 domestic competitions last season, I dread to think what you’ve made of 99.9% of signings in the clubs history.

I have no issue at all with people saying they don’t think it’s a good signing - it’s hardly one to set anyone’s pulse racing let’s be clear - but making out like it’s unfathomable or he’s awful is just plain weird. It’s just patently not the case.

We have more pressing concerns in other positions than hovering up wage hungry players who will add nothing.

Deal with it because I cannot see anyway this will happen - he belongs at west ham.

The England team has some pretty poor players fill out the squad and being part of a strong team doesn't necessarily mean you're a top player yourself. He's competent but he hasn't been asked to do a massive amount since he left Villa.

I want someone with an exotic name please.

Bernard and Malcolm sound like a couple of 1970's Sit Com characters.. or a team off Bullseye.

If we sign Delph tho who has been playing LB for city. we probably didn’t have to give Baines a 1 year deal. He could have been cover. I don’t mind the signing just like I didn’t mind Barry I just hope we don’t sell Gana an he’s the replacement.

Although it sounds impressive it is actually much easier to play as a left back in a team like City who usually have 70% possession then in a weaker team like ours where you are far more exposed defensively

Need more bald players

Could have just written ‘yes you’re right’ because that’s basically what I said. He’s competent, so why are people losing their minds over signing him? If he’s a replacement for gueye I’ll be fuming, if he’s just coming in to strengthen the squad then he 100% does that, no question.

He might even replace Bernard in the side and make you the happiest man alive, who knows.

Perhaps we should bring in England international Welbeck as well. We do need a striker like!

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Seems like a sensible squad signing to me, as long as his wages are reasonable.

Cover at CM and LB, and the probably small fee will mean we can move on some of the dead wood that would otherwise have acted as that cover and come out at a profit.

Delph is a baldie isn't he..

A Baldie, with an exotic name is now concerning, as Sandro Ramirez ticks them boxes..

I'm sorry I misunderstood. It helps to actually read.

I know you're joking but obviously replacing Bernard with a DM wouldn't work. I don't think he's that bad. But let's get Malcom in to do that.

He hasn’t been an England international for years.
