Dele was off the boil, well before JM arrived, and Winks is hardly a creative genius. Durham just says stuff for a reaction, and I change the radio station when he's on now.
'Are they too good for Spurs?' - Mourinho's 'basic' style leaves no room for duo
talkSPORT host Adrian Durham has questioned whether Dele Alli and Harry Winks are too good for Jose Mourinho’s Tottenham Hotspur. The England midfielders, both 24, have found themselves on th…talksport.com
Used to love seeing the "Scotty Parker" turn
Has a player with his goals/assists record at a young age ever been cunted off this badly at the age of 24? His career has almost disintegrated. Can't think offhand of anyone.
The way i see it he has 2 options. First is to get as far away from this manager as possible. 2nd is to sit tight, wait it out until Jose gets fucked off.
Because he's never going to get in a Jose team on any regular basis.

But he did get in a Jose team on a regular basis. He had plenty of games to impress in fairness
Yeh last year but was he playing because of injuries? Kane and Son out, Sissoko and Winks were injured as well, Tanguy was in the doghouse, GLC was still settling in. We had no Bergwijn or PEH.
If all of those had been available i'm not sure he would have featured much back then either.

Dele was poor way before Jose got here. People seem to be misremembering that Jose was supposed to be revive his career. Here's The Guardian article on it.
It seemed to work for about 5 matches then Dele dropped form again. What I will say, Jose should definitely be giving Dele more opportunities than he is currently getting.
I haven’t had any issues with Dele being sidelined as he wasn’t earning a spot and when he was getting time, he was back to his underperforming ways.
Something has to give though and can maybe provide us something better than what others are showing. If he really isn’t doing what he needs to in practice and off the pitch then I guess he doesn’t deserve it, but if he is putting in the effort and work than we need to try something else and give him a shot. Can’t get much worse than we are at the moment.
That is such a summarizing photo of Dele's last 3 years as a footballer. Well done
And in all honesty, there probably still weren't many midfielders over the last 3 years at his age who scored 23 goals and managed 20 assists.
The middle option is to go on loan. His contract probably lasts longer than Jose will.
He just does doesn’t do enough when he plays to warrant a start ,what he’s done in the past means jack shit .
He should be playing. Enough with this petty victimisation. We need more creativity and goals its as simple as that and whilst he isnt perfect he offers more of that than any other player bar Kane and Son.
If we did start with this midfield 4 why our Winks ahead of Dele? I really don’t get what Jose wants from him at this stage
To humiliate him. Same as Shaw and Martial at United.
How many times has he played with good players around him? Kane, Son, Bale, Moura
We seem to throw him out with Winks, Gedson, Bergjwin and Sissoko and then wonder why he no longer looks world class.
Good players need good players around them. Put Dele on with Kane, Son, Bale, Ndombele and see what our attack looks like.
Gedson spent half the Marine game getting in Dele's way and fluffing up passes.
He’s played with Kane ,son and Erikson for the last 5 years and the last two when he’s completely gone to shit it’s got nothing to do with who he’s playing with it’s him he’s not good enough to get in the team simple ,he don’t do enough he gets carried every game .support him as much as you like but these are facts .
