He scared shit the Argentina defence in the 98 world cup and also the Brazil defence in the 2002 world cup. That's at least 4 years!
Oh Christ Dele is better than Sane and Mbappe now
What can I say BC? It's blessing and a curse but it's always there. I fear my friend
Guido 🇺🇦
is going to have quite the large amount of egg on his face in due time. His fate will be similar to yours in the matters of PeppyG and Sissoko.
Is it fuck

Will it fuck
Oh crap BC. For a moment I thought you had crossed the Rubicon and found peace with the realization. Now it seems you're back to struggling with it. It's ok my friend as the path to acceptance is not linear. And you've had 2 bombshells on your plate which is more than most people.
Dele is better than Pele. This is because Gerry Francis was shit in the 90s and if you don't agree, go and support woolwich you muuuuugggssss etc.
Poch made him first choice last season never dropped when fit but he was disappointing let the manager down. His form didn't improve this season and hence on the bench. Fact.
Dele was poor last season, but he was great the couple seasons before. Really there' s no knowing if a player will just be shit forever or return to form, so it just doesn't make sense to proclaim certainty in either direction. But it's always difficult if you've had players have a poor season because their value decreases and it's a harder sell, which is why we weren't able to offload the players we wanted to. Dele was one of my favorite players to watch before last season, so it's a shame.
Pelé only did it in black n white
This describes the situation surrounding Dele excellently and I think it is how a lot of us view the current situation. The only thing I would add is that he has been unlucky with his groin injuries - very difficult to deal with and to manage and may well have a lot to do with him struggling to recapture his first season performances which suggested we were onto a winner with him.
Who knows, had he remained Injury free, we quite probably would not have slipped into our current situation as he was a real game changer during his first season. I hope he does get back to his best as he will return to being a real asset to the squad.
COYS
He's back.
It was good to see some more fight in the second half: less of the flicks and tricks and actually knuckling down. A graceful, but also aggressive football player.
People love to go on about his instagram account and personal life but I thought he showed a bit of character yesterday in tough circumstances.
Been better than most lately not particular high praise but not sure why Dele is always the scapegoat
But not as 'rounded' as Maradona or (Brazilian) Ronaldo!!
