2021/22 Dele Alli

[Muggins]

Southgate?

Find me anyone on the planet other than Southgate that wants to see that.

Him and DCL look like good mates so far. Always felt Richy and DCL had little connection on and certainly off the pitch. Wonder if that will bode well if they do end up playing off each other.

It’s absolutely true. Richy and DCL did not function as a partnership. Dele may be a bit less selfish than Richy!

Do we really want to pay 10/20 million for him?

Doesn’t have a clue how to do anything other than pop up in decent positions in and around the penalty area. That’s all he has to his game.

 

[Bebeto]

To be fair he is at least running a lot...but every time he gets the ball he has no idea what to do with it...and this is not only his fault but the entire team not giving him enough options...I am wondering what lampard is doing in training because I am not seeing it right now with the exception of the quick transition going forward when conterattacking.

Laugh at suggestions he'll be ace for us in time.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Still no idea what position he should play

Hey he beat Andre Gomes in the bleep test.

The bar is underground

A number 8 for me in a midfield three but we need the six to make it happen

You can't build a possession based side with players/defenders who can't retain the ball and no number six who can receive under pressure.

Sweating like a married man caught in a brass house. Hopefully he can regain fitness.

Must be hanging out either Rooney then hopefully DC united put in a bid for him

Sorry, people think he’s our replacement for Richie?

Had his chance last season, couldn’t get in the team, called out by Lampard for not trying hard enough in training - should have been told to go. Now we’ll end up paying a fee for him.

An embarrassingly desperate gamble.
