Haven't seen enough of the lad to form a definitive opinion , so not really bothered either way. That said , I cannot understand him signing for Chelsea of all clubs. So many before him have committed career suicide by becoming a bench warmer , or worse. Likely to be good for his bank balance , but bad for his career.

Can't say I'm massively bothered, don't really blame him for making that call either

People will get hugely worked up about this, but we've made an offer which he's clearly been interested in but, we can't offer European football which he clearly wants and can join a manager he's worked with before.

Having quickly told us his intentions, we can move onto other targets and we've now got all summer to do it.
 
Can’t blame him for backing himself and having champions league ambition. But at a club like Chelsea, he better rock up and hit the ground running. Less than 15 league goals and they’ll be looking for his replacement a year from now.
 

I had no opinion on Delap. Still don’t. It never felt like an exciting signing to me. I think 30M gets you better strikers from abroad. There is always risk but we don’t have the cash to pay for sure bets. (And I don’t view Delap as a sure bet either)
 
30 million for Chelsea is a throwaway signing, 30 million for us is a marquee signing.

Don't mind the lad but he would never have been the priority for me, some good creativity behind the striker is far more important given Beto has shown himself to be servicable the back end of this season.
