He was mesmerizing at his best.
Not the first time we have this type of floaty type of genius in the club either... Spurs fans always had some romantic ideals for the essence of football. Many of our cult players have had that in them.

During the chat at the end of MNF he talks so well and looks so relaxed. Not stressed out at all. Maybe the break has done him good and next season he can come back to the right club and make an impact. because listening to him, Everton was 100% the wrong club for him to go to. He needs a stable environment at a club.

Exactly. Its like they think
Bazali
doesn't know he isnt playing football. Guess what like yourself some get it's simple affection for a player we have fond memories of. I'd like Vertonghen back too he's not going to be starting for us either. 
I hope he makes it. Would be great to see him doing his stuff on the pitch again.
Above all though, I just hope he’s happy and healthy

hasn't played since Feb last year...is he actually injured with all these various ailments? I've read hip, back, hamstring etc,
He says he hopes to conveniently return to full training at the end of the current campaign when he's a free agent
or is it Everton a club with FFP problems cant'/wont have him involved to not trigger the very heft payment to Levy
maybe it truly is legit multiple injuries that hasn't allowed him to not get anywhere near Everton in well over a year but i dont believe it

The best bit was "In their last big game (referring to Man U game) when it was last minute and the pressure was on, I didn't see them all fighting to take a pen then, it's alright to take it's when it's 4-0. If you are the striker and want to get on the scoresheet don't try and do it at 4-0 in an unpressurised situation"

Think WC might be a bit of an ask with some of the decent potential midfielders that are coming through. Just hope he can get back to playing regularly again tbh
Tall order, but good luck.
Fortune favours the brave!
But chance favours the prepared mind, so you are going to need to Rocky 3 and 4 it, old son.
On Dele, Thelwell added: “Dele’s contract is coming to an end, but our medical team will continue to support him while he completes the intensive rehabilitation programme he is currently undergoing following the operation he had earlier this year. Both Sean and I agree it is important we ensure Dele’s rehabilitation is not impacted by his contract situation at such a critical point in his recovery.”

Genuinely fucking loved this guy. I don't think I've ever wanted a player to succeed so much. Was absolutely gutted with how his career has panned out. He should've been one of the best in the world.
Given he was rather intelligent I think it might do him well to start coaching on the youth level. Not sure how much of a playing career he has left
He seemed to play a lot on instinct though, can you coach that?
I think his issues started when he tried to become a more complete player instead of just continuing to do what he was always great at. He was never the best technically. He seemed to lose some bite in his game, that playing on the edge, and he never recovered from that. When he was at his best he was playing with a lot of spite.
Sorry I meant intelligent person. He always gave me a very good impression in interviews of someone with a good grasp on things and not the standard footballer-mouthbreather
Can't imagine he has a future in coaching. All the traits that seem to have sabotaged his playing career are the ones you need as a coach. Honestly think he'll end up on TV.
Needs to put a good season on film. Could see him bossing the MLS for several years and making a fair amount of cash if he just shows he's healthy and can focus on the football for a bit.
