Well his CL ban is over which helps.He looked happier yesterday than he has of late.
he has quite a languid style, which belies his actual efforts. When things aren't really coming off it can give the impression he's not trying, but to me, he always plays that way.Just a quick one on Dele's attitude as it's been questioned in recent weeks. Last week he traveled with his teammates to a game he was suspended for, took part in training the day before the game and supported them from the bench. He then played a deeper role which he hasn't had to do in quite some time yesterday and played a beautiful game. He also looked pretty damn happy when he and his teammates scored (He's a Liverpool fan by the way).
He's the one player we have that I think gets a lot of stick for reasons that are pure hearsay/guesswork. I for one haven't had any issue with his attitude this season. I think it might be down to people believing that he will leave us in the next couple years, hence reading into things too much. I say lets just enjoy him whilst he is here.
Cracking game yesterday!
He did well playing centre mid. Hopefully he can do a job against Madrid if Dembele is still out.

Why was none of this being said 3 or 4 weeks ago?
Could it be because it looked like he had an attitude problem and was playing poorly. But rich everyone coming out the woodwork now he's performed.

I was supporting him and questioned why others were.
He's a special talent and I think he has a great attitude. Cocky? Yes but imo he can back this up with his performances. A lot to learn? Absolutely, he's still only 21 though and is quite raw. Rather have him than Pogba though.
He's going rip into Madrid, you wait and see.
Not sure what you think you've read into my post mate. I said weeks ago he wasn't playing to normal standards but where you and I differed is the threshold at which he should be dropped. I didn't think we were there yet. I've been very consistent with my position.Why was none of this being said 3 or 4 weeks ago?

This is the same dele we've been seeing for the last 2 years, only difference is he isn't a rich vein of goalscoring form.
Everyone needs to calm down, he's never been a player who consistently plays amazing. He's an effective player who has great movement and attacks space brilliantly.
The other aspects of his game will improve with age and experience, he's only 21!!
On his attitude, again it's the same it's always been. It's just being highlighted more because he isn't firing.

Attitude problem?
To be fair - you were the only on here calling for him to be benched while others felt that's a bit extreme and almost knee-jerk since statistically he was doing quite ok
