I Am A Different Type Of Player To Pogba - Fabian Delph

Fabian Delph has dismissed comparisons with Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba after securing a "dream" move to Manchester City. City were reported to be trailing Pogba in the early part of the close season, but appear to have abandoned their pursuit of the France international after snaring Delph from Aston Villa.

"I think I'm a different type of player to Pogba," Delph is quoted as saying by MailOnline.
"Whether City were linked with him or not and they're not getting him, I think that's irrelevant to me coming.

"I'm coming as a box-to-box midfield player with a lot of energy and I see myself as quite different to him."

Man City Signs Fabian Delph

England midfielder Fabian Delph is leaving Aston Villa to join Manchester City, the two Premier League clubs announced on Friday, just days after insisting he would be staying at Villa Park.

City confirmed on their website that the 25-year-old Delph had agreed a five-year contract at the Etihad Stadium and had completed a medical.

"Fabian Delph has exercised the release clause in his contract and will join Manchester City," said Villa in a statement, with press reports saying they had received a fee of £8 million.

FABIAN DELPH scored a late winner for Aston Villa to put a sizeable dent in Chelsea's title charge.
The Blues ended the game with just NINE men, after both Willian and Ramires were sent off.
