What is up with Dele Alli?

More the play on grass.

I'd love him too. We know theirs a player but something isn't right.

Been out too long.

Been in around amateur football and amateur/pro boxing more recently, the amout of younguns who show real natural promise for whatever reason fall out of the sport for couple of years normally partying and various methods of modern copulating... Once out of system and settling down, look to come back, most never get back to where they were.

Lad I grew up with. Played with Rooney in the youth team. (He was a couple of years younger than me)

He had all the promise but was constantly in the boozer.

He had a good career in lower leagues for York city and Bristol city.

Could have been better. He scored in the youth cup final v villa too

That half against palace was worth more then 11 million to the club, so we didn't do to bad.

If they kept him on the payroll indefinitely I wouldn't begrudge it. The crowd that night was really positive and even though we were two down at half time there wasn't a boo to be heard in the ground but everyone was saying "he's got to change something." Even Dele coming out to warm up lifted the crowd, I think he replaced Gomes who'd had a shocker of a half. He showed for the ball, gave DCL someone to play off - he made things happen and without him we were walking out of Goodison that might wondering if we'd face Barnsley or Rochdale or someone in our last home game at the old lady. Training with us without pay till he's fit. Of all the problems we have, Dele isn't one of them.

I mean he’s been an absolutely diabolical signing, let’s get that straight.
 
Poor lad really seems to suffer from mental health problems..

Be great to see him get back.

Had the footballing world at his feet....

He really didn't need Jose Mourinho in his life. Bad fit for both
