Dele Alli at Everton

[Hawk_Spur]

Was okay but just doesn't suit counter attacking football.

Dwells on it for too long.

Dilly Dally Dele doing my head in at present...needs a rest.

wont disagree about the counter-attacking football but he had the exact same job as Moura for 70 minutes and nobody is slating Moura for giving the ball away, and not scoring or setting up a score. For the first 2/3s of the game the plan was hoof it up top and hope one of those guys or Sonny could make something happen and none of them did.

I thought he was okay tbf

What's with his running like he doesn't care. Is he carrying an injury or has he lost pace?? Whenever he had to run for a pass it looked like he was jogging to it

He’s just got no acceleration, it’s quite painful to watch sometimes

Never been blessed with pace but he’s definitely slower after these hamstring problems.

At Mk and early Tottenham he had more acceleration.

 

[Lumiere]

He's become the biggest scapegoat on here after Sissoko, he actually played well today.

 

[Dannyspur]

His passing was really sloppy today and he showed little or no urgency on the ball or off it. He also reverted to stupid little flicks again.

Off topic, but are you the guy who knows Snowie who I chatted to a few months back?

 

[g_harry]

Love Dele. Played ok today. Give the ball away few times but. Disappointed he didnt do more when he had a chance to make allison work.

 

[ILS]

We are better off selling him to a spanish side.

He is too slow for PL pace.

The Spanish league where it is more about being technical on the ball and keeping possession? I couldn't think of a worse league for him to play in.

Failure to grasp and perform the basics is my greatest gripe with professional footballers, it drives me absolutely bananas!!

???
Do you know what his role was yesterday? Do you know he switched positions?
Do you know he is probably the only player we have intelligent enough to be able to do what he does?
Do you even see what he does when not able to play with his preferred attacking partners?
Do you watch his off the ball movement?
So much absolute tosh being spouted about him...

There were far sloppier passers than him today. Urgency? How do YOU define urgency?! “Stupid flicks” oh dearie dearie me!
It was a patience game yesterday, and if we’d pushed and pressed too much too early they’d have killed us.

 

[Cochise]

Did well. Not brilliant, but not awful. He carried the ball through some tight spaces well.

Seems like a primadona, he's exasperated if the pass isn't perfect and won't fight to get there. Yet consistently struggles with his own timing and weight of pass

That is his max speed unfortunately.

I see him being slow and unable to keep the ball!

He's never been quick & I don't think he's slower now, but I think his problem is he doesn't see the whole picture of what's going on around him on the pitch & he's dilly dallying on the ball or picking the wrong pass & losing us the ball.

The dilly dallying; he has to play to his name.
