Alli was a last minute punt because we were desperate we didn't even have a manager at the time, hopefully someone else loans him if the Turks send him back he isn't playing for us again

On one hand, you have to take into account that he was literally a child in school when one of the incidents supposedly happened, and who knows, maybe he could get counselling and grow a bit or something. But the other big incident was fairly recent, to where he loses the benefit of the doubt that he has grown out of that type of behaviour.

I couldn't really begrudge a club taking a bit of a punt on a young player, hoping that with age they've accumulated a bit of maturity as they work their way into the lineup, but this would be a signing to stick in the 11 as soon as possible and the club would be paying a large transfer plus wages. Just signing him would be questionable from a PR standpoint, but using the amount of resources necessary to get him with alarm bells sounding this loudly is almost like mortgaging your home and taking all the money straight to a bookie.
