Would you go and play for kompany or O’Neil and come I’m afraid it’s a harsh fact we are seen as beige and treading water I can only assume that every player we have signed so far had other offers, yet they chose ‘beige’ Stoke. I wonder why that is, if we’re such a poor destination? Money

Really? States the bleeding obvious but fails completely to answer what might actually be happening with LD this coming season.
Certainly no "Delap to ... " scoop, therein.

Certainly no "Delap to ... " scoop, therein. No it states that they really rate him Also do you not think that Manchester City and Delap do t know what is happening ? It’s clear they want to hang on too him From how that reads he will either be on the bench for them or move out on loan to a championship club for regular games I suppose it’s also about how many games Haaland is capable of

It’s what he will learn from him and guardiola Haaland will be left out of some games Haaland got injured. And they bought another striker anyways + have McAtee. Man City won the league last season without a recognized striker and didn’t use Delap at any point. I don’t see what will be learned coming on for 10 minutes at the end of a game that your team is winning 4-0 in either.

He was injured for most of last season And he’s the only other target man that they have And the ten minutes at the end of a game will make him hungry for more and push himself further Better ten minutes than most of the overpaid wasters that are quite happy to not be on the bench and still pick up their wage packets

Liam has the box room, only a single bed but he’s got the latest Stoke duvet set. Rory won’t let him put any posters up though as he only recently papered. Miserable bastard.

theathletic.com/3461622/2022/07/30/manchester-city-liam-delap-stoke/Manchester City youngster Liam Delap wanted by Stoke City on loan
Stoke City want to sign highly-rated Manchester City academy product Liam Delap on loan, The Athletic understands. Delap is also wanted by a number of other sides in the Championship. City have no intention of selling the striker and have already turned down a £16 million bid from fellow Premier League side Southampton. It is understood that any potential move to Stoke or elsewhere would be a straight loan without an option to buy. The striker’s father, Rory, played for Stoke between 2007 and 2013, where he was a key member of the side who achieved promotion to the Premier League, and became famous for his throw-in ability. Delap, who was in Derby County’s academy until 2019, made his debut for City in September 2020 in the League Cup. The England youth international won the Under-19 European Championships this summer, assisting Aaron Ramsey to seal a 3-1 win over Israel in the final. Last week, The Athletic reported that City may also loan out fellow 19-year-old James McAtee due to a rush of interest from Premier League, La Liga and Eredivisie clubs.

I’d imagine he’ll go out fairly late in the window, won’t he? City might hang on as much as possible just to make sure they don’t have any bad injuries themselves.

Frustratingly, the Athletic story doesn't give any steer on how likely we are to seal the deal above others.
But hopefully the Rory link could be the key, rather than a potential negative. If he wasn't oprn to being coached by his dad, it wouldn't have gone this far.
I am a bit confused why they haven't let him out on loan already as he's about as close to getting Prem minutes as Liam Gallagher, with Haaland, Alvarez and all their floaty false 9s.
He could have done with being settled somewhere before the opening day. He needs a season of lots of 90 minutes somewhere, and that's not going to be in the Prem.
So hopefully we've got as good a shot as anywhere, with the Rory link tipping it our way.
