Czechlad Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 I saw this today. Poch's away record against top 6 clubs is horrid. It is away, but you'd expect at least some more points there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a m ole Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 (edited) That really was a huge win for Tottenham. Trippier was brilliant. Edited November 2, 2017 by a m ole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Trippier is better than Walker so made a killing on that deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 He gets a lot of stick but to me Dele Ali is one of the best technical players England have produced in a long time. I know he's underwhelming in an England shirt, aren't they all?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 i think after watching scholes, gerrard and lampards careers and then to a lesser extent seeing the jack wilshere hype machine i just dont excited by him if im honest, all this good enough for madrid / barca and will fire england to success stuff...no he wont Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One For The Road Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Sickening to think that these ***** could win the Champions league. I expect Man City to do it at some point but Spurs? I think Id give up on football if that happened. It was bad enough when Chelsea won (bought) it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching him regularly for Valencia and Barca last year and most of his long range passes sailed into the stands. I think Ali's got lovely technique. That goal he scored at Palace, he frequently receives the balls with defenders around him and can spin away from them and he gets a decent amount of his shots on target. Of course all this disappears when he pulls on a national shirt.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I look at Ali's level for Spurs though and I'm pretty sure he could step it up to one of the elite world teams. He's regularly hitting 15-20 goals a season just like Bale was so sure he could do as well as Bale has for RM. Gerrard and Lampard were brilliant club players let's not forget. Mourinho wanted to sign him for Inter Milan in 2008 and I'm sure he'd have done very well in Seria A at that time considering Beckham went to AC Milan that season and was their best player at the age of 35. Gerrard and Rooney would've done well abroad but they were all too comfortable at their own clubs, island mentality if you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 the thing stopping him from playing for real madrid is kroos, modric, asensio and isco... all 4 of them would be among the best PL players if they were here he's probably a year ahead of him in terms of his development but is he really worth an £80m bid when they have asensio?
