Dele Alli

Or learning how to play through a bit of pain. See Pochs comments re; Winks.
Winners play with minor injuries.
Playing through/managing pain is different to playing when injured. My evil step-dad always used to tell me to 'run on it', so when I threw my ankle out I 'ran on it', except it was severe ligament damage that put me out of action for 6 months. Dele feeling a strain and continuing to play is not clever and is different to the Winks situation (as it has been presented).
 
I’m getting more and more impressed by Alli. He scored a lot of goals in his first season and people were raving about him but I wasn’t that enthused. I now think he’s becoming more influential and involved in games.

My fear was that he’d become a sort of Frank Lampard type player whereas I think he has it in him to be more than that (although to be fair to Lampard, he was excellent at what he did).

I’ll be thrilled if we get him signed up. Eriksen after that hopefully.
 
Mother Farmer, that is a shame. What's wrong with him, general wear and tear, same thing as the injury he got early in that England game and proceeded to play the full game, twunt-style?
 
...I wonder if Poch is circulating a la Wenger. Could it be mind-games???

Hope so. We are sorely lacking when Dele isn't playing IMO...
