Transfer Rumour Dele Alli

[PaddyJames]

You think he was playing at a good level before Mourinho? He really wasn't. yoyre just throwing hearsay together to justify a move for a player that you deem as valuable but hasn't proved that for a significant amount of time. If you're banking on getting a player in over a weak reputation then that's exact the moronic way we've been signing places recently. Theres a reason why he's not playing and you can't always blame Mourinho. He'll play you if you're good enough it's that simple

It doesn't matter what Ancelotti can do because Alli doesn't posses the attributes we critically need in the first place. He is overrated and the vast majority of people can see that.

Will you let me clutch at straws in peace please.

I cant escape the image of him in an Everton shirt, and it just looks too big.

My ficticious source says it's a done deal in principal.

What have tea bags got to do with it?

Fair point about disinterested players. Our due diligence on players has been poor in the main since david moyes. Bought far to many who's character has been suspect. Here for an expensive holiday.
I skirted over the comparison above with cahill. Absolute chalk n cheese characters and mentality.

That's a valid point about Moyes , despite his perceived flaws his teams typically exuded tenaciousness. Do you attribute it to his recruitment? Or his ability to galvanize players or both
But on topic with the thread I don't feel del is suitable player too much of a luxury. What's next ? Shouts to recruit ozil

the modern day tim cahill

Tim Cahill never played for mk dons

He is a gamble. At his peak he was one of the best players in the premier and if he could replicate that he would light up goodisom, and would be exactly what we need. If however he turns up and acts like a spoilt brat I’m not sure I could face coming on GOT ever again for the amount of told you so forum posts.

He won't start here for us if everyone is on form/fit. Its a none starter he won't swap spurs bench for ours. His head seems to be elsewhere away from football. Spurs should of cashed in a few years back , he's got westham on loan written all over him.

He starts

He'll be loaned abroad, personally think Italy would be a great move for him. Mourinho and Levy will never allow him to go to a club fighting for top 6, whilst the lad himself surely won't step down to a bottom half side.

Good player but goes missing too often.

on loan they might. He couldn’t play against spurs, and it could increae our chance of taking points against title challengers. Long shot mind

Yes, he walks into the team in the slot Gomes and Sigurdsson have been occupying.

It makes sense for all parties. We take points off Spurs' rivals, Levy gets a shot at driving up Alli's price, and Alli gets match time to position himself for Euros.

We won't get him permanently, and I'd argue that we should only take him as a short-timer with something to play for in any event.

Pickers
Coleman - Holgate - Keane - Digne
Doucs - Allan
Hamez - Alli - Richy
DCL

Is that it? The right side is defensively weak. I still want Hamez in the middle and Iwobi on the right. Iwobi has actually started playing now although his final ball in is terrible. Feel like he makes the right defensively stronger as well seen as Hamez does nothing in that regard. Which would mean Alli would come off the bench for Hamez. Would be nice to have some speed in the middle. Also leaves Siggy out all together and Gomes will be on for Doucs. Bernard as cover for Richy. What about Gordon?

Actually think it makes sense now....
