PaulC Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 How Delph didn't get in the England squad I don't know. Oh no, I do he plays for Aston Villa and his name isn't Tom cleverley. Nor me he's playing as well as anyone in midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCRAMTIN Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 My idol, after years of injuries his finally showing why we bought him. Reason for him being my idol is that we share the same career in some way. I'm 19 years old and just when I was being called to our first team here in my boyhood club in Sweden (at the age of 16) I got injured and after one and half year injured I'm finally finding my way back and just got called to out first team again. I love Delph and his passion for football. Really happy that I got the opportunity to meet him! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KjParton Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 Classic MOTD - absolutely no analysis for the game today, so Delph gets no mention in the presence of Woy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avfc96 Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 Classic MOTD - absolutely no analysis for the game today, so Delph gets no mention in the presence of Woy. Did you really expect them to ask Woy why he didn't call up Delph? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lp_villa830 Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 Classic MOTD - absolutely no analysis for the game today, so Delph gets no mention in the presence of Woy. TBF their was not an awful lot to anaylze in that game was poor by both teams. Think it is a bit early to be banging the England drum for Delph just yet.

Big_John_10 Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 He's been our most consistent player so far. He's easily one of our best players and hopefully this continues all year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForeroGabe Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 Seemed to be the only one trying to create something against hull. Great player who deserves a call up based on his form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SikhInTrinity Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 Though he has played well, I'd like to see him breaking more and getting closer to the strikers. For me I still haven't seen that Delph who played against Man United in his first season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skruff Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 I'd like to see him play further up the pitch, Think he could prove to be a real threat. Besides he looks like the only midfielder capable at creating something going forward at the moment. If not pushing him further up the pitch, give him the freedom to burst forward a lot more. Gabby - Benteke Delph KEA- Sylla Luna-Baker-Clark-Vlaar-Bacuna Is something I'd personally like to see being tried out, I'm sure you'll be able to find some weakness in this. I'm no tactician Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm no tactician The concept of the formation is fine if Luna and Bacuna push up and play as wing backs. To be more attacking I'd have Weimann in for Sylla. Delph would not play that attacking midfield role but hes still great box to box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raymond Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 If Benteke is on the field with some of the runs Delph was making yesterday would have been a different story. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 its a bit irrelevant now but how did he not get a free kick in the 2nd half when close to left wing he dribbled past a defender and was chopped down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan_007 Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Wasn't he mainly an attacking player in his leeds days?? I also agree that he should be given an atracking role with sylla / KEA / Westy behind him. Just needs that first goal which I think is around the corner. Really pushing on though this season, happy for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electric Avenue Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 From a selfish PoV I'd rather Delph not being called up for England as he'd ended up having his head turned by some rocket polisher such as StevieG. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it happens all the time. One good game for England and all the media will be saying he needs to play for a top 6 side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electric Avenue Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 I don't think he'd stay on the pitch long at international level, particularly in a major tournament , the refs would remove him 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villan_007 Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 (edited) Delph is a rarity in the era of midfield specialists - a combative midfielder with impressive dribbling skills. He currently ranks among the top 10 players in the Premier League for tackles, interceptions and dribbles, doing a defensive job for his team, while also providing the thrust that helps make Villa such a threat on the counter-attack.

LondonLax Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Delph winning the ball then driving forward with it has been a feature of our matches so far. Typically your defensive mid will win the ball then look to play a safe pass immediately. With Delph he often makes a forward run creating an advantage in numbers on the attack. If he could develop a knack for assisting (or scoring) goals as well he would be the complete midfielder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
