VIDEO: Furious Fabian Delph storms out on reporter but it was just banter

SportsJOE

Good to see he’s doing something with his days anyway.

Fabian Delph has had a bitch of a time since joining Manchester City. He pulled his hamstring in his first pre-season friendly, he had to sit and watch the start of the campaign from the stands and now he’s missing the end of it with an achilles injury.

The former Aston Villa player of the year hasn’t featured since the first week of February and, despite impressing at his new club with the few games he did get and despite changing a lot of perceptions of him during his run outs with England, he’s fallen way out of people’s consciousness at this stage.

He’s keeping busy though.

The midfielder got into the April Fools spirit by taking the piss out of a poor City TV reporter who genuinely thought she had upset him.

An innocent question about Delph’s fitness was not taken well as the player got up and walked out to leave the reporter in a world of misery.
