Keep preaching Sammy. As much as you supported Dier you had the balls to admit it might be time...and he's had more decent play in the last 2 seasons than Dele. Some folks just like to be willfully ignorant of the evidence before there very eyes and put a 'player' before the badge.Why are some players lambasted but others are allowed to be shit?
If he started his Spurs career this way would people actually rate him?
No.
So move on from 2016 please that’s four years ago now. The geezer wouldn’t look out of place at Luton
The audacity of him to wail and whine after that run by Lo Celso from our own box when he put through Bergwijn did my headI felt he played ok tonight, sub wise who else could Jose take off ?
not a defender, not winks (as no-one else to play DM role) , not GLC, and we need the 2 pacey guys up front
so any chance Jose makes will normally be Dele unless Dele is scoring goals
Forgive me for pointing out the obvious but you are saying this in the dele thread. Far be it from me to put limits on your liberties but might I suggest you avoid this thread if the subject matter bores you.The Alli talk is so boring.

Just trying to do my good deed for the day like I learned in Scouts. Happy to be of help.Thanks.
You can’t make that conclusion at 24 - it’s laughableHe was reeeeeeaaaalllly good, consistently, 3-4 years ago.
When he’s 27, some of you will still be waiting for Dele to be as good as he was when he was 18.
There comes a time when you have to say to yourself that unfortunately he wasn’t our new Gazza and never will be.
YaaaaawnPrick.
I can make that conclusion on the basis he has massively regressed.You can’t make that conclusion at 24 - it’s laughable
That’s different to writing his whole career off at 24I can make that conclusion on the basis he has massively regressed.

You agenda is far too clear now
I just think you're a very sad person tbh.kingdawson
Still running around in the minority that think Dele is worth a wank I see.
Seems like some people just want to go against the grain.
Sad isn't it but he showed himself up badly in the match thread yesterday .That’s different to writing his whole career off at 24
You agenda is far too clear now
I thought it was 2017 where he regressed according to you? Hasn't been the same since then you previously said. You make it up as you go along.How is it different?
I’ve written him off because he’s regressed for 4 straight years.
Or has he improved?
Do you think Dier can make it? He’s only 26
I might be sad but you are in a minority when it comes to Dele.I just think you're a very sad person tbh.
As for Dele, he was handicapped with the tactics we employed yesterday. Don't think any striker in world football would have looked good with that system. He worked hard and covered the most ground as he usually does but we definitely improved when Lamela came on.
He’s in a bad patch for form that’s all. No player is finished at 24 - certainly not one with his ability. It’s almost as if you want him to fail so you can win an Internet fight.How is it different?
