That's a bit of revisionism.
Very unfair to say son and alli haven't worked hard off the ball in the last two years, actually it's just not true.
But they certainly didn't always. Son still isn't great at it, and Alli has only just started to do it consistently. That's not revisionism, I've heard football journalists say the same about Alli, about him coughing up the ball and not leaving others to try and win it back.
And I think this is relevant response to someone saying Onomah isn't being played because for Poch it's 100% commitment to work off the ball or nothing. Which clearly isn't the case.
If you want an fantastic example of Son's laziness, go and watch Moses's goal for Chelsea last season.
