Dele Alli - Player watch

[Lemon]

Calm down everyone.

He will either, increase his lung capacity, to better carry himself with his extra muscle (he appears to be carrying this season).

Or, he will need to drop the extra muscle and any intent to bulk. So he can regain his poise.

Think they probably all need more sodium bicarbonate (to clear down lactic acid) in the last few days of clear weeks, as I believe they look more tired in games post a full weeks rest than when they have midweek games. And I don't really agree with sodium bicarbonate, but can't see them accepting 4oz of fresh greens juiced daily (which the pancreas can use in the same way, to create the sodium bicarbonate).

If we could get good money for Dele let’s get rid.. my choice would be Aviators N’Moustacchio who is currently tearing up the sideways passing stats in the Pabst third tier. Or if we’ve only gone and slept on him, Flatt White is running things for Stoke Newington under-13s, another good choice imo. Fingers crossed.

I honestly don’t see why selling dele if you got £150m would be such a ludicrous idea. If the money was spent wisely you could get 2 top quality AM for the price of him. Just started a poll on twitter which so far is 75% sell him. So it’s clearly not such a ridiculous idea.

I will reply to you without being rude or calling you names.

First, don't ever quote Twitter. It is simply a place where the lowest forms of life get together to see who can shout the loudest.

There was a time when transfer fees were a form of much needed income for Prem clubs. Develop a gem, sell for a big profit then reinvest.

But with the TV deals, sponsorship etc selling your best players is simply something you don't do for financial reasons.

We have spent huge money on the likes of Sissoko, Lamela, Soldado, Paulinho etc. We have shown time and time again that there is no perfect formula to spending huge amounts of money.

If we sell Alli then we are in need of replacing a lot of goals and assists. While posters like you think this is easy most don't think it is. History backs up our view.

I’m not saying there’s a guarantee in getting a good replacement or two. But there is definitely every possibility. We could have sold him last summer for £100m and bought Salah for £35m. So to dismiss it as a ridiculous idea is being naive imo. Selling Kane would obviously be ludicrous but not dele for me. I’m sure there are educated on here in European football that could give you at least 5 young European players they’d consider better than dele.

Salah's wages are reported at £90k a week. We don't generally bring players in on such a high wage.

Your last sentence is why people are having such a problem with your posts. Real Madrid are reportedly monitoring him. He has been in the Prem team of the season the last two seasons.

You talk like he is nothing. You talk like buying a 20 year who is voted to be in the best 11 for the PL in his first two seasons is somehow easily replaceable.

You seem to think we can just buy wonder kids from abroad to slot in and perform at a top four level like it is a football manager game where we just agree a price and we have a star on our hands.

Your posts suggest you don't live in reality.

Can’t even begin to imagine the sort of stick dele would get playing in the bernabeu,considering what Modric got.

Can you suggest the 2 top quality AMS we could get who'd play for us and for the £60K a week Dele's on?

I agree that as a 21 year old he has not developed enough yet to play for the most glamorous club in world football.

I've tried debating you politely, but your jibes at him are so pathetic I can no longer be bothered with you.

So you're suggesting in the summer we should have sold the young player of the year who scored 18 league goals playing a key role in helping us to get 2nd so we could buy a guy who's had a sensational first 6 months at Liverpool. Retrospect is wonderful. What if Salah had an average second season should we have sold him to purchase the latest player performing well at another club?
You're living in a fantasy world.

That’s not what I said at all. I gave Salah as an example. Ultimately my opinion is that dele is overrated and over valued if you don’t agree then fine. But I can assure that I’m not alone in this thinking. So to deem my ideas as totally fanciful when over 50% of football supporters would agree with me,decries your dismissive response that Dele is somehow untouchable.

Selling Dele

Oh ... he was serious?

50% of morons you asked on Twitter.

I think if a poll was run among people with more intelligence and less attention-spouting BS than Twitter users then the result would be a lot different.

You may criticise him or gently suggest ways in which he can improve. And believe me, they are plenty. But to sell him is such a flawed idea that I must wonder whether in reality, you don't really like football all that much.

It was 75% an hour ago. Maybe only half your followers are thick as shit.

Fine ok. You’re obviously not allowed to have opinion on here about a player. Without receiving personal abuse. Actually thought this forum was above that. Anyways I’ll leave you to it.
