Dele Alli

Do we need someone to cut the half time oranges? Do players even still have half time oranges?

Though on second thoughts, having Dele Alli in our dressing room with a knife is probably a bad idea!

Maybe he could blow up balloons when the under 10s team have a birthday party?

He can skin up the half time spliffs
 
Nico O'Reilly in our U18's reminds me a lot in terms of style of play to Delli Ali when he first burst on the scene. I'd prefer to give him a chance in the next couple of seasons.

Now at Como (Fabregas is their manager). First game in two years, and he gets sent off 10 minutes after coming on as a sub. Fair to say, Cesc wasn't too impressed with him....

I didn't know about his mental health issues and abuse as a child. I hope he manages to get himself back on track.

Yeah the lad had a terrible childhood.

As a player, he was good but seems like he lost any hunger once he'd got enough dough. I guess you can attribute that to his childhood. Money won't fix all those issues but it can certainly take you away from the environment.

Anyway, him picking up a red card on his debut is no surprise. He's always had a nasty streak on the pitch.

Apparently it was all nonsense according to a family member of his. Said it was all lies. Wouldn’t be surprised.

We seem, as a society, to just believe everything.

I think you'd have to pretty sick to very publicly lie about being sexually abused as a child.

But then again a miscellaneous member of his fine and upstanding estranged family says, so...

You would have to be sick, yes. But are you saying people don’t do it? Plenty of people lie about that and rape - as we’ve seen recently with Mendy. It happens. You’re making out it’s a weird concept.

Okay mate. If you can't see the difference between the scenarios then maybe it's you that has an issue critically evaluating information.

Good research on upgrading 'a family member' - your words, to his mum though. I'm sure she has no ulterior motives.
