Dele is at his best as a #10 playing within 10-15 yards of Harry Kane.
With Kane as the focal point, he can run in behind the defence and beat ball watching midfielders who are supposed to be marking him.
Out left, he lacks the pace and left foot needed to get the ball into dangerous areas.
Lying deeper, he's not aggressive enough defensively to play a holding role.
Dele is one of our best players. He needs to be the #10 playing off Kane or another target man, as Mourinho used him early on after getting the job, to be at his best.
