Our biggest problem with Ali is going to be hanging onto him, he is going to be offered huge money.

We're lucky to have him. One thing that pleases me the most about his rise and growth in our team is that other young, talented players will see what he's achieved and look at us as real chance to fulfill their potential.

Think this works both ways he has been very lucky he picked a club that gives youth a chance and long may it continue because as a youth watcher I see more on the way.

Thats how it SHOULD work, we all know it doesnt though.

I dont see him wanting to leave anyway, he's got everything he needs with us at the moment.

Yeah ok but my point is, he and his agent aren't stupid people. It's not as though a few blokes on the internet know that *insert big team* can offer him more money and they don't realise it. They know damn well they can get paid more elsewhere. This whole "He'll be offered bigger money elsewhere" is obvious. Until we accept a bid, it's irrelevant. It's just more of the defence mechanism some of our fans like to do with our best players.

How about we keep hold of this guy long term and build around him/Kane instead of bending over for those Chorizo ****s Real Madrid everytime they show interest. I don't want us to do another Bale which means rebuilding all over again after the hard work we have done. If they show interest then tell them to fuck off!!!!

Instead of the immature 'dab' and 'vine' comments, as if his social media accounts are at all related to his on-field performances (not to mention Alli himself enjoys a bit of a dab), maybe tell us what it is you don't rate about Pogba?
I thought i had? I said he was a dabbing kevin nolan who lived off of the occasional decent goal. He made his name in bobbins league with a team grossly superior to the rest. Alli would destroy Serie A. Not saying Pogba is a bad player but he is disgustingly overrated and nowhere near worth the fee united paid.

Thought it was one of Alli's quieter games last night. Sky were lauding him up for his goals and had to resort to highlights of him passing the ball backwards for the other things he did. I thought he was better against Watford he actually contributed to the play a lot that day, last night despite working hard him and Kane were pretty quiet.

Not saying I don't rate him highly, being there to score time and time again is a real skill in itself.

If he carries on as he is, it would take a world record fee to prise him away...
Absolutely. Wouldn't accept 100 million for him. Think the discussion is apt as we have a player here who may be the best in the world one day. We have to match that. If we keep challenging and pay him lots we should be fine. As always Real worry me as don't know a player who has turned them down
