Not impressed with Alli's reasons. Bottom line like it or not he's and Alli...it sounds as though he's father hasn't been in he's life (that's the suggestion)
 

Khilari

Plumber. Sort of.

Janssen at 9 is a great boost in confidence for him. Who was it last season? I can't recall.

Also interesting that Chadli's kept 22 amid rumours of a transfer - not inevitable he's leaving.

Finally, I'd have liked Dembele to take #6!

Bobby - he had not left yet

Well, he was not raised by him.

He had he's reason, I just feel it's not healthy coming out publicly like he had, just leaves so much questions about his state of mind.

Maybe his mother made it impossible for the dad to be involved.... It might be a good thing for Dele Alli to go to Nigeria and connect with part of he's heritage.

My mother did something similar, actually. She changed to her mother's maiden name. However, she gave me her father's last name and of father's surmame. Personal name, mother's surname, father's surname is the standard.

But the thing is, we don't know the relation, with regards to Dele. I for one will therefore not pass judgement.

All those kids getting squad numbers, but not Oduwa or Ogilvie. Understood that Oduwa was persona non grata because of his refusal to sign a new contract, but does anyone know what the story is with Ogilvie?
