Yeah I guess I just see it the other way round to you.

Out of interest, at what point did you think he was overhyped?

I personally thought he was over-hyped when we bought him, but 18 months later he was an absolute steal at £5 million.

Just wondering, if it's true that those ****s in Spain want Dele that he would kick up a fuss? Also I wouldn't sell him and would tell Real to get da fuk out for anyone they try to pursue... But would a world record say 105m bid get you?

He's very much a "home" boy, still spends a lot of his spare time around friends and family in Milton Keynes.
Granted, we said the same about Bale, but I think Alli will give us a few more years before looking to move on.

I fucking hate posts like this. There's a section of our fanbase that almost seem desperate for our best players to leave. The same people that come out with "Lloris deserves so much better", "Lloris will leave us" when we lose. Makes me sick, such a defeatist attitude.
It's inevitable. I hate fans with heads in the clouds. Want to make a wager he will be with us in 5 years time?

Wow that's crazy and really surprises me. Did you see him at MK Dons? If not then I understand it.

I saw him for MK a couple of times, I just didn't think he would break into the first team as quickly as he did.

Ok I guess we'll have to agree to disagree then. I watched him a lot at MK, especially when I knew we were getting him and I knew he was going to be an absolute gem. I'm not saying I know it all (just go through my previous posts to prove that wrong lol) but to me it was obvious.

Almost felt the same way about dembele from Fulham, I doubt that will happen now as we missed an easy chance.

I gave you an example of where you twisted my words. Just read the post you quoted.

The rest is just silly bollocks. "I got more agrees than you"....seriously? What you going to next, challenge me to a game of top trumps?

No cos I expect you'll make up what score you have got and then refuse to show me the card:sneaky:

And the only reason I brought up the number of agrees that post got was purely to point out I'm not the only one who thinks you do that. At no point did I say "I had more agrees than" you but hey ho another twist of someone else's post to try to over promote your point. Only surprise is that you didn't run your reply through a thesaurus before posting.

With that said I think the best course of action would be put each other on ignore which is what I shall do.

The story about Madrid is rubbish. John Cross is on talksport now, talking about the move, lots of "I feel", "I think", "Maybe in a few years". Its just made up bollocks to gets clicks and sell papers.

Giroud's goal was a fluke. Alli's pure class....


Come on, if one of our players had scored that you'd be all over it creaming. It was an improvised piece of skill. Chances are keeper usually gets it, it hits another player it or it goes wide but he knew what he was doing trying to get it on target.

Fantastic skill and a great goal in my opinion.

Bit drastic over a little tiff Trix ?

if i had seen or known about him before I might have had a different view, but I didn't. The most important thing is he has proved me wrong so lets move on.

Alli's goal vs Palace was great but I prefer the goal vs Everton.

Especially coming from someone who spends so much time with his tongue firmly up Wenger's arsehole he got a Xmas card from his large intestine.

Was a fantastic goal. Not denying that but he said it was a very lucky goal. Stuck his leg and hoped for the best.

I might be wrong but I think he said there was a little bit of luck which I imagine he was referring to it hitting the crossbar before going in. He didn't say, to my knowledge, it was a very lucky goal.
