New Everton signing Fabian Delph admits his frustrations with his time at Manchester City.
The 29-year-old knew that his chances at regular first team football would be limited at City next term, which is why he took the decision to move to Everton.
Despite winning plenty of trophies at City, Delph prioritised playing a crucial role for his team in the coming seasons.
"Really frustrating, from a very young age all you want to do is play," he said of his time at City in his first press conference as an Everton player.
"I had a great spell the season before, where I was playing pretty much every game. Obviously I got sent off and didn't feature. It's been frustrating.
"But I'm very professional, I got my distances up and did everything I could to get back in the team. I made myself available, and the team were in a very good place, but unfortunately I didn't feature."
