Intresting that the TV commentary mentioned he was woeful in the pre match warm up.

There is a very good player in there but it seems he has allowed his special. talent to be consumed by other interests.

Everyday provides an opportunity to change the future.
 
It seems massively unlikely we'd find anyone who would take him, but, hypothetically, what would happen if we sold him? Who gets paid, is it us or Spurs?

He's rubbish again for the 100th time look at his lifestyle. Everyone at spurs knew it. He's done. He's spent he's not coming good. Again we will be saddled with this guy on massive wages for ages.

What's so unusual about his lifestyle, can you elaborate? I don't really pay attention to tabloids/social media so am unsure.
 
Although he didn't produce and should have buried one 1st time, he has more of a presence as a forward than Gray or Gordon, and his close control and skill are an asset, he needs to be finding space between Midfield and Defence and playing people in

It’s definitely concerning that he couldn’t even get a start today considering how light we are on attackers. Not writing him off but The signs really aren’t great so far.

It's all conjecture from myself, yet I can only suspect it's either due to the finances or his attitude on and/or off the pitch as he's got the talent.

He showed he knows where the net is when at Spurs, and I thought he was okay when he came on. So, I was really surprised when he didn't start the game.

If Gordon is starting as our focal point in front of you, surely he's asking himself what's not clicking?
 

'He did OK. Player in there somewhere'. I really wish I could see this.

All I can see is a washed up player, ambling round the pitch. £80 grand he got for that yesterday.

After all the bad signings we go and do this. Levy well + truly had our pants down.
 
Thing is with a player like Alli, to get anything out of him, he'd have to be at the centrepiece of our entire team and he just hasn't got the form and confidence for it.

A conundrum.

Clearly rusty as it was his first notable touch early on.

He needs minutes. I'd rather see him play 3 or 4 consecutive games before completely writing him off.

If he's done, he's done. Would just rather give him a shot before that happens.

That's what I think to be fair. If it's contractual, that's the boards fault. If it's the player...then play him into confidence (relying on Gordon too much is a hindrance). If it's both then....it's a waste of time and money
