It’s been non-stop at Tottenham over the past few weeks. The Amazon series, All or Nothing has provided a frightening amount of insight, especially in respect of Danny Rose and Dele Alli, players who had been absolute firm fan favourites, prior to the broadcast.
Danny Rose came across appallingly, a man without even the faintest glimmer of cognizance in him, and Dele Alli chuckled as he was called lazy in front of the rest of the squad. As far as the boy’s deeper thoughts on chocolate bars and teeth brushing, it’s probably politer not to discuss them again.
I’m given to understand from a source close to the club that predictably, Dele Alli didn’t see the head on collision with José Mourinho coming, and feels genuinely confused about his world being tipped upside down.
It’s been suggested that Levy would be looking for £70million for Dele were the player was to be sold, but at this stage in the pandemic, the market has not rippled with excitement at the number.
My source believes Spurs are keen to move the now 24-year-old on, as his use to José is limited. The gaffer told talkSPORT ahead of the still yet to be confirmed League Cup game against Leyton Orient this evening, ““And that’s the situation at this moment. He will play Tuesday, he needs to show how good he is.” For Dele, this is surely his ‘sandwiches wrapped in a road map’ moment.
