Dele Alli

Just to clarify, I'm a Spurs fan.

I'd agree that Spurs got lucky with some decisions against City in the two games at the Etihad. Plenty of Spurs fans would claim that that only evens out bad decisions to have gone against them in previous games against City. The 4-1 at WHL last season should have been 2-0 to Spurs (with three "goals" chalked off for offside). As to Alli's goals against City this season, he was comfortably onside for both of them. Perhaps you're thinking of someone else?

If you say that City have consistently suffered from poor decisions throughout this season, I won't argue. I haven't seen enough of your games to know otherwise. But, having watched all of Spurs' games, I can say that I have seen no evidence of them being consistently favoured by referees, as you claim.

I don't go for picking over all this stuff, normally, because it can get very sterile. Could I just remind you, though, of at least one of the goals scored at the Lane last season that was hugely offside, with a lino standing about three yards away. It was so outrageous it was a joke. No arguments about the game at the Lane this season. We were outplayed, no complaints.
I don't see that Spurs are particularly favoured by refs, certainly not up there in rag territory this season as far as that goes, but then, who is?

I'm in no doubt that we have not had the rub of the green this season to an astonishing extent (and I'm using temperate language, I could be a lot blunter) – one that I don't remember ever seeing before – and the game against Arsenal on Sunday was just the latest in a long series of injustices. We should be able to win anyway, with the talent we've got, but it's really rankled this year.
 
I wouldn't be happy with us signing Alli either but again if the club think he is what we need then fair enough.
 
Don't particularly want Alli, or Sanchez. What I want, big time, is Mendy and, ideally, Fabinho. Sling in the other Silva and my cup would run over. You will notice that they all neatly come from the same place. But it's not going to happen.
 
We could wait till next season and still pay a similar fee. We can assess him next season then. Our only real competition at the likely price is Real.
 
People complaining about his dislikeability need to remember Bellamy.

As a footballer he is just what this team lacks. He would score and set up so many goals. The only problem is the price tag.

In addition Xavi thinks he is a Pep player.
