Let's hope he picks up over the Christmas period and kicks on in the new year - he's often been a slow starter after the summer but seems to come into his own once the weather goes sour.
Yet he's almost single handedly helped his country qualify for the WC.

I can imagine that it has been mentally draining, because he's had a lot of criticism about his contribution to the national team. I think that he must have thought he'd be hung out to dry if they didn't qualify, and after the first game it wasn't at all clear whether they would.

I have a good idea that I think should be quickly implemented. I hope someone from the club reads this and indicates in to MP.
When we have a corner or a free kick around the area. We will be more threatening if we dont bother lining up in the opositions half. Just give the ball straight back to them or kick it out for a goal kick. This will save time as we offer no threat and havent for some time from these scenarios.
Actually spot on.. which is disgusting when u think about what a physically big team we have.. pulis in as a set piece coach :)!

The club is a pretty tight ship, so all this stuff about player unrest seems bogus and especially is leaks are from people connected to the club. They seem to raise themselves for the CL. These stories always do the rounds, like the one about Coutinho agreeing terms with Barca.

Nevertheless, he doesn't need to be getting negs. He's providing information honestly, he's not trolling. It doesn't seem likely to be true but don't shoot the messenger applies.

Yeah I agree with this, although I think the negs are due to it being extremely unlikely to be be true, not the 'Alli wants to leave for more money' bit, that could be true, but lets face it, if All was causing 'serious unrest' he wouldn't be playing every week and would be training with the reserves.
Its sounds like agenda driven nonsense made up by someone who wants All dropped and/or sold.

I haven't read the post TBH and haven't rated it negatively.
