Dele Alli

He played well as you say, he did one thing wrong and got dug out
We have had lots of players do worse consistently and not get dug out
Dele is Spurs Pogba it seems

Noticed in that game you went to Marky, the Alli song being belted out despite him not being on the pitch. Shows he still has a lot of credit in the bank with the fans and Mourinho should treat him with more respect. Actually Mourinho should treat all human beings with more respect.

Yep the fans still love him, he is a huge talent
TBH though he has been under performing for 2 1/2 seasons now
I do wonder how distracted he has become off the pitch though
 
Dele has been encouraged to play a high risk game since he joined us. It has served us well. I think that it could work in a Mourinho team but he would need to be one of the front two with cover behind. Understandably, Mourinho thinks that there are more goals in Son/Kane but I can't help thinking that Dele is a better bench option than Moura or Bale, when we are chasing a game, right now.

I would like to see Dele on the pitch with Son and Kane. Against the lesser teams we can surely ditch a Bergwyn or a Lucas, who don't add much in an attacking sense. I think with Son and Kane to worry about Dele should get more room to make his trademark runs.

If Lo Celso or N'Domballer doesn't play Dele 100% should

Bergwijn and Moura are being selected for their defensive and transition qualities. Dele can't offer that. I'd like us to be more attacking but that isn't going to happen under the current manager.
 
Who knows what Jose says to Dele in private, and we don’t know how much Jose knows how much he can eek out of Dele by giving him an extra dig. I guess we’ll find out sooner or later.

Problem is we know very much in public what he says.

Whatever tactic Jose is trying to eek it out of him is not working and TBH I am not sure the public comments help him
 
Shame one of his efforts didn't find the net. Would have given him a lift. He was good today. Those flicks that don't come off - just feel immature now. He only needs to do those deft layoffs when they are on. The rest of the time, don't force it.

Mourinho will get away with it if he delivers the goods, otherwise it will create a bad feeling - especially if the football continues to bore and we lack what Dele brings.

My guess is with crowds being allowed in this season Deles name being sung would be a regular occurance.

We only know what he says that’s made public. We don’t know everything he says, it maybe nothing but we simply don’t know. What we do know is that JM has won a brick load of silverware, including a pretty mediocre Man U team, who mugged us tactically in the Semi. We had a team who didn’t turn up for a CL Final against the wall pushers. I’ll trust him and his management for the greater good.

This.
 
He is a much better player then Pogba.
no, he is not!
Dele is a good player and I'm a huge fan. Pogba is also an excellent and talented individual who would grace any top team both need systems that brings the best out of them.
Pogba would just shade it IMHO.
Both are great to have in your team and are big characters and needs a good manager to get the best out of them.

Yes he is (imo) in fact i would say he is the most overated player in the Prem.

Today we had a team that simply looked lacklustre and clueless against Stoke for pitty sake. Greater good my arse!
