He will never play another PL game. Just retire Dele or go to Saudi , I genuinely don't care as long as this wastrel is off our books

Remember saying if the Palace game doesn't refocus him then nothing will. Turns out nothing will.

One of the first back for pre season this week (apparently).

Redemption arc or he left his phone charger and needed it back

Anyone know how many more games he can play for us before it triggers a payment to spurs? Not suggesting we play him, just curious.

I just don't see how we can afford to play him at all tbh. Suggestions he was first in this morning as though he wants to make some sort of impression, I can see where this is going to go and it will end up costing us due to more stupid decision making.

Didn't the echo run a similar headline last season with the likes of the Bobble and etc claiming he'd returned to pre-season in the best shape of his life.
The kid doesn't have the heart for it any more. I would be very surprised if he managed more than 2 days of a Dyche pre-season before he switches off.

6 more then we would have to pay £10m on the 7th I believe.

No ones going to take him on loan, big big if, but if his attitude is right I wouldn't be surprised to see him play a few times

7 more competitive games I heard

Tbh I really hope he can stay and get back to something like the player that is in there.

May as well get him up to speed and see what he can do.
We don't seem to be adding to the squad much so we're going to be making a silk purse yet again this season.

Even if he's able to play in pre season and look good, may attract attention from Saudi, and they'd offer a decent fee maybe?

DanEFC92 · July 6, 2023

Predictably these stories are turning up.

Forcing the narrative that he'll be reintroduced.

Get rid.

Atletico Mars boss Ishe Samuels-Smith plans to run the rule over Dele Alli, 67, in pre season training and could yet offer the former Spurs ace the chance to revive his flagging career.

MACCA75 · July 6, 2023

Give Levy a call. The current situation is lose-lose for all concerned. Nobody wants to loan him and we can’t play him ourselves. He’s difficult to motivate at the best of times never mind in this scenario.

Time to renegotiate with Spurs.
