Delph for England

[eamonn]

He was a solid, (sexy?) seven out of ten. Which reminds me of H&V poster ''The Situation" who boasted of only bedding eights and nines.

the mirror this morning put Wilshire as an 8 and delph as a 6. Taking off the claret and blue specs, that is till ridiculous!!!

That's astounding.  Wilshere gave the ball away so many times last night, even when under little pressure.  His reckless fouls aside, Delph was good on the ball and hardly gave possession away at all.

The Telegraph

England were in good shape with the midfield diamond and with Jack Wilshere, rather than Jordan Henderson, at its base. It allowed Henderson to use his running power and it required Wilshere to be more disciplined. England lack a specialist in this area there but Wilshere is the best candidate and could make it his own. He needs to be more comfortable in going deep to collect the ball from the defence and needs to know when to surge forward – as he did at the start of the second half when his low shot was saved. He has an eye for a pass and he can build the play from this position.

I seriously can't believe that.  Best candidate?  Wilshere showed absolutely nothing last night to suggest he should ever play in that position again let alone at international level.  There is clearly an agenda at play there.

And kept a Glock under his bed.

Which, presumably, he used to "off" any 7s and below who managed to make it that far.

Giving bedmates ratings is a trifle recherchez. I had a very good Scottish mate who was in much demand with those of the feminine gender who, when I asked about his latest girlfriend replied "she may not look much but in bed she is an ice cream slider". I do not know what that is but the combined imagery of sweetness, smoothness, stickiness, creaminess and slipperiness I found extremely appropriate and erotic.

It certainly brings different emotions to mind than "she bangs like the shithouse door in the wind".

Yes, but if she mings then what's the point?

You can introduce the filth into your girlfriend's bedroom repertoire, but you can't make her look any prettier.

At work, the first thing everybody has said to me (knowing I'm a villa fan) this morning is "Delph played well" so those 5/10 score do not seem to mirror public opinion.

Same here , backed up with he'll be off to a top 4 club.

so I think we should side with the rags and say wilshire was better , utter tripe.

Wilshire was utter garbage and he does an impression of Jamie Redknapp with every passing game. I.e in terminal decline from the age of 21. Beats one player - sometimes - and then gives the ball away. Or passes a bog standard 8 yard to a player in space.

Delph and Henderson created time and space for him which he didn't utilise effectively.

Also that Gobshite Tyledlsey kept telling everyone what a great game Phil Jones had. Bellend.

Decent debut for Delph.  Looked lively going forward, decent on the ball, and worked hard to track back.  The one main issue was his rash tackling and slight naivty, but a promising first full performance.

Like sometimes you go on top?

I thought Phil Jones did ok considering Fergie did everything he could to turn a promising central defender into a utility player, made a couple of poor passes but generally defended well and could easily have scored with the header in the first half, not brilliant but more than decent for me.

More like "I'll undress myself" and "we can skip the teabagging this time".

you disgust me. filth

What annoyed me about Wilshere was him not wanting to take the ball off the two central defenders. Time after time they had the ball and were looking for someone to give it to and Jack was stood 15yards away holding hands with an opponent. That meant they had to generally send it long instead of him taking it off them and spraying it about.

  be honest, he's just not that good. and to hold hands with the oposition player is a way of saying "dont give me the ball" looks like weve found him out, but the rags will go on saying what a good player he is.
