After completing an acrimonious transfer from Aston Villa to Manchester City this summer, then pulling a hamstring and missing the beginning of the season, Fabian Delph finally had the opportunity to make his mark on the new season when he started in midfield for England vs. Switzerland on Tuesday. This was it, he was ready.
Or maybe not.
Less than 30 seconds into the Euro 2016 qualifier at Wembley, and Delph was down, having injured his hamstring again.
Fair to say, Twitter was less than sympathetic to the midfielder's plight.
