Dele Alli

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

Better off with Chemical Ali

Already mixing inhalers for the dippers.

 

[Tevez City]

Fantastic player,he will cost at least Pogbas fee mind.

Probably worth it though,he has a bit of everything and rarely struggles with injury.Could he be Yaya's natural heir?

I agree.

 

[Tugay One Cup]

Always been a dickhead with a bad attitude.

 

[PhillyBasedBlue]

Oh yes please! Best midfielder in the league for the next 10 years probably. Yaya getting older now, can't go on forever, we need as good a replacement as we can get. So much better than Gundogan and even Fernandinho.

Scores goals, aggressive and phenomenally skilful. What's not to like!?

Would be the best signing we could possibly make apart from Messi, Suarez, Ronaldo or Bale. Fucking get him signed City!!!

This aged very very very well.

In fairness to whoever wrote that, there wasn't a better player at that same age in Europe for a couple of seasons, at least in that position anyway. I think Alli was given too much, too soon and some of his problems now come from him thinking he already made it. It's part of the reason someone like Bellingham is so special, because he has a completely different mentality. But also, Alli stopped doing what he was actually great at and tried to become an all round player. At his best he was someone who was great at arriving in the box late, and played on the edge all the time as a young Rooney did. He seemed to drop further and further back later on at Tottenham and it never suited his game. He then lost that edge and confidence he was once playing with and you're left with a technically average player that's probably ruined mentally.

I remember him even at his peak as a dirty snide **** whenever we played Spuds -memorably when he did it to an absolutely peak KDB who shrugged it off and blasted a worldly into the top corner

 

[dronefromsector7G]

Cheeky £5m bid?

 

[RayCTID]

Not even as a joke signing. Wouldn't add anything to the current team.

 

[Centurions]

Cheeky £5m bid?

Can't see him costing that much nowadays, unless you mean we get him PLUS the £5mill?

 

[TonyColemansbagofapples]

Would get him on a free - and that would still be overpriced
