2023/24 Dele

If they are talking to Spurs about doing a deal he must be impressing in training.

He was a fantastic player and is only 28.

Nailed it there mate..WAS. He's done.

If Spurs (Levy) has any respect for the player they'll squash the absolutely ridiculous terms that we're agreed when he initially signed

Who was it that negotiated the terms btw? Shocking deal

Bill is not here.

This decision is on Thelwell and Dyche. And they are making that decision based on working with him and deciding if he can improve the team solely in a footballing sense.

The culture hasn't changed of throwing good money after bad

Just say it without the photo shoot mate, can't be arsed with all that edgy stuff.

Dele should be given a lot of praise for his open and heartbreaking honesty in the abuse he has suffered.

Putting that aside, I think we need to be professional in offering him a contract. He has been out of action for over a year and we have paid out a large sum of money which is not his fault but ours.

If our manager wants him and our director of football agree, then I have no issues with him as a player. I think pre-season will be a huge difference in signing him or not.

We will find the money and we need players so that's not an issue. Players like Eriksson and Lennon have been through terrible situations and come back playing so Dele can do this.

Dele needs managing and I think Dyche believes he can get the best from him so let hope he can.

Do you back Dyche/thelwell at the club?

Like I say, they are making a decision based on a footballing basis.

Yeah? Well, you know, that's just like your opinion, man.

I think they are human and they cannot possibly know with 100% certainty that Dele Alli will not break down again due to injury as he's done numerous times over the past 2.5 years.

 

[Tony’s Carp]

This would change the calculation a bit, but I'm sceptical this is right. If we only need to pay on a sale (which is fair enough) why would other reports say we're renegotiating? Unless this deal IS what's been renegotiated?

 

[Paristoffee100]

His former contract with us, he did nothing worthy of his wages etc, and ok he has had personal issues/mental issues but we are not a charity so wouldn't be offering him a new deal , just the best of luck in the next stage of his life

 

[Evertonthat]

Not being funny but this lad has been payed 100k per week and not played a game all season. Add to that the fact that Levy will want 10M if he plays another 7 games.

Just let him go. Absolutely shouldn't be looking to keep this lad.

 

[moggeridge]

unsure if this has been said or discussed. but could we not put a contract in place similar to what brentford did with eriksen? a short one, just to test the waters of his commitment to the game after a time out for health reasons.

surely both player and club will benefit if he does find the spark again...

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Folks, for all we know it could have been the club/Dyche who told Dele to focus on next season.

It wasn't in our interest to play him because we couldn't have paid his fee even if he was fully fit.

There's only one persons opinion who matters - Dyche. Is he confident he can get him going? If yes, if the finances work then why not.

We're on our arse - we've retained Ashley Young and we were desperately hoping Leeds didn't get promoted because of Harrison.

If he's fit and able to play, then he only has to get to 50% of the player he was to be one of, if not our best player.

Knowing our luck, if he stays he doesnt kick a ball again. If he leaves he'll roll back the years.

Better. Thanks.
