Dele's drop off from double young player of the year and statistically the best goalscoring midfielder of his age in the history of the Premier league is truly extraordinary.

Good bloke, thorough professional.

The bloke looks like he just doesn't give a shit. Ive never seen a lazier footballer in my entire life. To think how exciting he used to be and the potential he had is just depressing and sad.

Will we see the 'old Dele' back, most likely not. However, is he good enough to be part of our squad, yes of course. If we get into Europa League again we are going to need numbers and if Dele is willing to be part of the squad then he stays.

For me, there are only 4 players currently who are definite starters in team in Kane, Son, PEH & Lloris. Every other position either needs upgrading or there is competition that will mean rotation. Even more so next year when Skipp & Sess return. If Dele is willing to accept he is part of a squad rotation game then that's fine with me.
Dele not happy being a squad player so needs to be sold

So this drop in form been going awhile now, can't blame it on three managers! He's got to go
As soon as her gets pressured in his own half the bloke loses the ball. You can tell against Wolves they couldn't be bothered to do it., So he looked okay.

The one thing Jose got right was alienated him and Winks.

I just don't think he wants it enough. This isn't a phase now, he'll drift in and out for the rest of his career and I want a player who is going to be hungry and ready to prove themselves.

He doesn't give a fuck about the shirt. Does the bare minimum and gets paid a fortune. So sick and tired of watching these half arsed displays from our players.

The thing that winds me up the most about him is that he always wants to do the fancy bollocks trick that looks good on replays, even if it's to the detriment of the team's move. He'll slow the play down and try a nutmeg or flicking it past or something when there are demonstrably easier moves on. I think his opinion of his ability is far higher than his actual ability.

The spurs insta page posted a video of his nutmegs which actually infuriated me. Sums this guy up.

This. Cares to much about his social life, sponsorships etc
