Oh yeah, they offered waaay more just before he joined us and Citeh turned it down, doubt they would do now mind. My point was more to do with us than them though ... hypothetically, if WE had £5-8m to spend on a player this January and Citeh would be prepared to accept that amount, then I'd be very surprised if we would be making an offer for him. At that price we would be stupid to pay it,there are proven goal scorers you could get for less. Indeed.

I think Saints offered more which was turned down wasn’t it? Could be wrong. Oh yeah, they offered waaay more just before he joined us and Citeh turned it down, doubt they would do now mind. My point was more to do with us than them though ... hypothetically, if WE had £5-8m to spend on a player this January and Citeh would be prepared to accept that amount, then I'd be very surprised if we would be making an offer for him. WBA paid 300k for Asante and he’s way better than Delap. He gave the complete centre forward performance on Saturday. Citeh would be better letting Delap have a season in league 2 to learn how to play professional football, the championship is too high a level too soon for him.

Thoughts on Delap? He's young. What? Somebody expected him to bang in 20 goals for us this year? Not on this planet.
But he's further away from the "finished article" than I expected. A good defenseman will allow him to get involved with them too much - that's part of defending. Until Delap figures that scam out, he's going to keep being mired in fights with defenders. Right now, all you'd have to do is smack talk & elbow him just to get the response and while he's doing that, he's risking a card and not helping our team. It's a scam Liam!
These defenders are like me - total arseholes using shithousery to negate your threat. If I can get you to fight with me, then I don't have to try to outrun you. And while we're at it, here's another smack just because the ref wasn't looking. Screw that, I'm not trying to run with that kid all game if I can just get him to stop and grapple.

"Thoughts on Delap". I'd get rid of him simply on the off chance that he's in some way responsible for the problems with our play that transcend managerial appointments. Oh sorry you meant Liam!

He’s done nothing to suggest he would command any kind of serious fee since he’s been with us Probably says more about our squad and lack of supply. I'm sure pep would have took the 20m if they thought he was as shit as this board think. I tend to believe peps view of players than this message board. Not seen Stoke or Delap play this season then?
