Ipswich v villa was a ruddy good game and Liam Delap was outstanding.
Another product of the Man City academy.

Wanker

Delap joined Derby County’s academy at the age of six where he spent the next 10 years before joining Manchester City's academy in 2019

I wanted us to get Delap.

Then he went to Hull City and scored 8 goals in about 35 games.

It'll be interesting to see how he goes at Ipswich.

Never mind, you'll be much more familiar with the teams in the championship next year.

Away at the Hawthorns will be fun with all those nut job Baggie hooligans.

Liam Delap is the latest Manchester City academy product to make a name for himself after starring with a Premier League double for Ipswich Town on Sunday.
The 21-year-old forward's excellent finishing helped Kieran McKenna's side secure a 2-2 draw against in-form Aston Villa, continuing his positive start at Portman Road since joining from City in a deal which could be worth up to £20m.
Delap is the latest young talent to shine at the elite level after progressing through City's Elite Development Squad (EDS) - a system previously led with a flourish of innovation by current Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca.
The EDS was established to create a bridge between the club's academy and first team, in recent years helping England internationals Phil Foden - the reigning Premier League player of the season - and Euro 2024 final goalscorer Cole Palmer break into Pep Guardiola's squad.
Designed to either prepare top-class talent for City's main squad or to secure huge profit, selling EDS and non-first team players has brought in more than £500m to the club since Guardiola's 2016 arrival.

New song for The Cheats:

"He's one of our own (well Derby's)
"He's one of our ooooooowwwwn (well Derby's)
Liam Delap
He's one of our own (well Derby's)"

Not long now then.

Erik ten Hag retains the backing of Manchester United's football leadership structure with no immediate plans for a change of manager.

Routine wins for the top three today.

I expect Chelski and Villa to win tomorrow.

Brighton vs the Tiny Totts.... hmmm score draw.

I can't believe I'm watching Everton vs Geordie Arabia... hard to tell which team is hovering above the relegation zone.

Routine? That was a box head fuk up until he switch to the team that should have started.

Clueless fooker!

There was nothing routine about City's win.

The curse of Rodri....

At least you haven't got Maguire and Evans as your centre half pairing....

Two dour draws but Chelsea will be kicking themselves at not being able to finish off Forest.

In fact only a good save from their keeper in the dying minutes saved them from defeat.

The other game was shit.

The pair of them are better than anything you've had since Merson and Adams were busy crashing cars into OAPs front living rooms.

Mind you, this was also the last time you were relevant, so perhaps you'd better get the current lot on the ale and sniff too.

Last season was the Moaners worst ever start in PL history with 9 points from eight games.

And guess how many the same manager has this season?

AND HE'S HAL'S MANAGER!

And how did it end for me and you?

Brilliant comeback by Brighton against Spurs.

What do you make of Rutters 2nd goal celebration anyone??

I didn't see it, I was too busy laughing. What happened?

That's your only hope *again* this season.

14th place, how pitiful.

They could have the excitement of a relegation battle yet.

Speaking of which…
