Fabian Delph

Has made a difference lately, just sitting as the dm and using his experience agree I don't think he should get an extension though unless he takes a pay cut and its literally another year extension, the money he is on is too high and we need a younger DM.

I can see him getting a contract extension for a year but it’d have to be on either less money or a pay as you play kind of thing. When he’s fit he’s a huge asset to the squad but it’s felt like at times he’s definitely taken the piss about how injured he really is. If you could rely on him for 25 games a season he’s worth having in the squad.

Deserves new contract. Our best CM.

I would not give him a new contract under any circumstances.

I hate it when players underperform for years or are 'injured' for years and then just as their contracts are expiring suddenly turn up to play.

It feels like hes just decided to play for another deal.

We need a superior DM to Delph anyway.
 

No no no no no no no no no

It's nice that he's finally contributed in a few games, but he's done the square root of nothing for 3 years, been injured most of the time and been one of the most dislikeable players we've signed in recent memory.

At this moment in time he deserves his place, but swerve any idea whatsoever of extending his contract.
 
United aside - where fair enough, he played very well - he's been doing OK in a limited role within a team that is deliberately conceding midfield. What made him a half-decent player at Villa was his mobility, and he showed whenever he tried to step out against Loftus-Cheek that his legs are more or less shot.

He's helping us and being professional but he clearly hates us and if we renew his contract we've learned nada.

I kinda subscribe to this really. There's clearly a player in Delph, he's just in the twilight of his career now so his fitness isn't what it should be. That being said.. he's never seemed particularly enamored with the club. He's professional enough to do his job when called upon like, but that's about it. We shouldn't be trying to extend his stay IMO.
