2022/23 Dele Alli

[NilSatisOptimum]

The quality will outshine and shut the gainsayers up.

 

[Eggsyblueskin]

If he can recover his mojo this lad could be immense for us this season and onward.
I actually quite like the fella , I mean ‘Dele on the tele’? comedy gold right there.

I was thinking about the money we seem to be splashing about, I do wonder if in part of the Richarlison deal we got some of Alli price knocked off. Say for example the first payment, that would have helped this transfer window a lot and may explain some of our new found transfer funds.

Don’t really know why we signed this guy to be honest. He doesn’t fit into any tactical set up we have looked like considering

 

[ossie_21]

I can fully see us avoid playing him to activate the fee clause and then ship him off in January

 

[ToffeeTim]

If we are never going to start him then move him on and avoid the clauses. Get someone else the manager wants.

 

[Tony’s Carp]

Either he has a knock or Lampard simply isn't having him. Having played a bit up font in pre-season Lampard clearly considered it an option so leaving him out today for basically a winger going up front is a pretty big slap in the face.

Could also be protecting him. Even full strength against Chelsea is a tough game. We play him up top on his own and get battered, the fans would eat dele alive.

So, was Dele a Frank Lampard signing that he now regrets or yet another Moshiri vanity project?

I suspect the latter.

 

[Zatara]

Strange choice but looks like Gray for the counter attack then Dele on 2nd half to offer a threat.

He was deffo a Lampard signing because the club made him do a 5 second Twitter video saying “we did it”, or that’s what I’ve heard on here anyway.

No Zat. If FL rated Dele at all he'd be starting him.

He is finished as a top level player.

For a counter attacking setup Gray is more suited.

 

[Sheedy's right knee.]

Mc Neil might play through the middle?

I wondered that… scored a number 9’s goal against Kyiv.
