This is it really. Tanguy and Lo Celso are just better releasing the ball in the quick transition style.But he plays at a slow mental pace, his Achilles. Plus he's been sluggish physically for too long to be a 'work in progress', unless he reads my thread in Off Topic on diet foundations to re-ignite that metabolic spark, he's not got the exquisite passing and movement we've seen from LoCelso and NDombele, they unlock Kane and Son much more than Dele is showing capable of, in this team and style.
Shame.
Unlike the N’Dombele situation, I’m convinced Jose has no real beef with Dele, he’s just come to the conclusion (correctly in my view) that the squad is full of other players who suit this style better.
he gave Dele More chances than everyone and the team was Unbalanced by it. Dele just hasn’t been able to adjust his role as the team has evolved. He’s lost out just like Winks and Sanchez, whilst someone like Dier has won. It happens.
