I don't know about that.
Bale, Son, Bergwijn, Lo Celso, Ndombele, Lucas, Dele and Lamela will be competing for 3 or 4 positions week in week out. Seems top heavy when you look at our defensive issues.

I now think he is more likely to go than not...but who has the cash that he'd want to go to?
It seems to be an area that we are strong in. Ndombele or GLC can both play there for our PL side and do a much better job than he can.
Lamela is more than fine to play in Eastern Europe and against League 1 sides if we want that role in our EL/Cup games. Bergwijn or Moura could also move centrally if we need it.
If we can get good money in I think that is likely much more valuable than Dele even with the match congestion.
You are criminally underrating Lamela.
How is saying that Lamela is good enough underrating him?
Apologies. Just re-read your post. I misinterpreted it. I thought you meant that Eastern Europe and League 1 was his level

No I meant we didn't need Dele to play those types of games because Lamela can fill that role in the Europa League and League Cups matches.
I don't think Lamela should ever start for us in the PL but he is better than the Bulgarian Super League or whatever the top division is called there!
If he is on Jose's shit list, my general feeling is that the great majority of that is down to Dele. Between what we can see in All of Nothing and his antics that have gotten him in trouble, he seems to be fairly immature and he is apparently lazy in practice. Granted, we are taking the show and Mou's comments at face value on that, but looks like was acknowledged by the team.
He just doesn't seem like he has grown up at all and hasn't evolved as a player. He seems to value his character and personae more than his playing.
Exclusive: Paris-Saint Germain begin talks to sign Dele Alli from Tottenham
The Champions League finalists have long admired Dele are hopeful of completing a move ahead of deadline day

Paris Saint-Germain have begun talks to sign Dele Alli. The Champions League finalists are hopeful of securing Dele before the transfer window closes after he was left out of Tottenham Hotspur’s last two match-day squads.
Dele did not travel to Bulgaria for last Thursday’s Europa League tie against Lokomotiv Plovdiv and, even more surprisingly, was also omitted from the squad for Sunday’s Premier League fixture away to Southampton.
The 24-year-old was offered to Real Madrid as part of the negotiations that eventually saw Gareth Bale sign for Spurs on a one-season loan and Sergio Reguilon acquired for 30million euros (£27.5million).
The exact nature of the deal being proposed by PSG is unclear – whether it is a loan with an option to buy or a full transfer – but they have long-admired Dele and also like the idea of signing an English player.
Given that Spurs appear open to the possibility of loaning Dele then it may well be that PSG’s sporting director Leonardo will initially propose a temporary deal to see if the move works out.
Telegraph Sport revealed last week that Dele’s future was in doubt with the attacking midfielder having also been substituted at half-time during last weekend’s home defeat to Everton.
Dele is understood to have been left upset by the decision and by his omission from the past two match-day squads and it appears increasingly likely that he does not figure in the plans of manager Jose Mourinho.
Inter Milan have also expressed an interest in signing Dele, on loan, but it appears that PSG may have made the first move after receiving some encouragement that a deal is possible in the coming days.
Dele, whose contract at Spurs runs until 2024, may be attracted to the idea of making a move to get his career back on tracking having also lost his place in the England squad. He would also undoubtedly he attracted by the prospect of playing alongside the likes of Kylian Mbappe and Neymar and competing again in the Champions League.

Oooh, PSG?
Let's call it £70m then..... Cunts.
It's mad (and sad) how he and Grealish's careers have panned out over the last four or five years.
Following Dele's breakthrough season, you really wouldn't have guessed that Dele's would stagnate and Grealish would completely turn his around by 2020, but here we are.

Then he should wake up.
If he wants to stay here then he can start by putting in a big effort on Tuesday night.
