Kieran McKenna recalls Liam Delap initially playing on the right wing for Hull, struggling to adapt and ultimately contributing to his team's 3-0 loss. This season, under McKenna at Ipswich, Delap transformed into a leading striker, surprising many with eight goals and becoming a top scorer in a struggling side.
Delap's impressive performances, including a standout game against Chelsea where he was instrumental in their 2-0 victory, have marked him as a homegrown phenomenon and sparked talk of international selection and a potential big club move. His success contrasts sharply with typical pathways for young players today, showcasing his rise as an unexpected underdog.
