Popular Post KJT123 Posted February 19, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted February 19, 2015 For one of our best players, this guy doesn't half get some abuse from you guys. He's been nothing short of brilliant the last few seasons and he's just going through a bad patch of form at the moment, and is completely understandable after coming back from injury. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been far from brilliant. He is best of a bad bunch a very bad bunch. His goals, assists and yellow card stats are appalling and wouldnt be surprised if his tackling stats are quite poorbrilliant is Gareth Barry, James Milner or Ashley Young when they played here, he is miles from that level 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted February 19, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted February 19, 2015 All he's saying there is we're not going to get relegated. And that he's so confident that he signed a new contract, which he wouldn't have done if he thought we'd go down. I think people are interpreting it as him saying "oops, shouldn't have signed that contract because now we might go down" That's not what he's saying. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 It's a poor choice of words, but I think that's all it is. It would be too out of character for him to be so openly negative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 I have posted this before, but how could he not think relegation was a possibility. Does not ring true. I had suggested that perhaps there were no other offers, or if there were, they were unwilling to match what we were willing to pay. I personally think it is clear that this is what actually happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't think Delph could have let his contract run out and moved to a bigger club for free this summer then you're kidding yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanO Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 I wouldn't have been that bothered if he had of gone but I'm pleased that he chose to stay. He's better than his recent form suggests but we need him to sort out what's happening on the pitch ASAP because so many player's in this squad are under performing and Sherwood will not have time to babysit player's who can't get their sh.. together. He (and every player) needs to be told either perform like you want to be in the team or be prepared to watch someone else take your place. Under Lambert we have carried players but I don't think Sherwood will be so weak, England international or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GasGasGas Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Probably one of our most overrated players for me. Personally I've never rated him more than mediocre at all. What has he done for us exactly? Some good goals yes, but I believe he comes up with as many cock ups in equal measure, if not more. How many goals we lost were due to him? Assisting the opponent? Giving the ball away cheaply for no reason and we concede? Found wanting and we concede? Numerous. Easily far outnumbers the goals and assists he has contributed for us. Today some are saying he was at fault for Stokes equaliser. Haven't noticed it yet but will have another look. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey2Arms Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 The guy seems to have either forgotten how to run past players with the ball, or has had it coached out of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinker Posted February 21, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted February 21, 2015 No affect at all on the game, looks lost, needs to be rested but we haven't got the squad to do it. Tell a lie hes crossed the ball for our goal, play him on the wing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 (edited) Hasn't play well for months imo, nowhere near the standard he was showing in 2013 or even the start of the season when he was playing well for us and England. Dislocated shoulder seems to have taken a bit out of him. Edited February 21, 2015 by VillaChris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreveryoung Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Don't understand??? Liverpool wanted him? What role does he want to play here? Obviously he will stay in the prem if we go down, must have a clause in his contract. We need to see much much better from this guy. On form he could run the field of play, though we rarely see it.

NoelVilla Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Needs to pick up and play like an international or he will be playing against the likes of Millwall and SHA next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Needs to pick up and play like an international or he will be playing against the likes of Millwall and SHA next season. No matter what happens to Villa, it's very unlikely he'll be playing in the Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 He was good at the start of the season but since returning from injury hasn't looked the same player. Delph is one of these players that takes longer than others to get back to speed after an injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomaszk Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 He needs to calm down, trying to do too much and achieving nothing. I'd put him left back for the Newcastle game. He had a run there under MON and was OK, who remembers that pass down the line he hit!? He can't be worse than Cissokho. Well he could, but it's unlikely. We NEED some attacking impetus from that area, we get the ball too much out there and do nothing with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
