FNQ Posted March 16, 2023 Report Share Posted March 16, 2023 Can’t Everton recall him? I suppose not as surely Sean Dyche would be tempted to try and ‘straighten him up’ given Everton’s ongoing struggles… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember him for MK Dons in our promotion season? What a prospect he looked then… Was about to put the same thing. He was a few years ago, the next big thing. Was unreal at MK, then got the big move to Spurs and didn't look back. Pretty sure at some point(s) he was being linked with big moves away from Spurs - at the height of his career there I mean. They then bombed him out to Everton, who in turn have sent him to Turkey, and now this. There is something seriously going on here. Personally if I was Everton/Dyche, I'd be trying to get him.back here and trying to figure out what it is that is going wrong. I say this in all seriousness, I really hope that mentally he is ok. He's been hyped up for so long, has it all become too much for him? Without trying to pin the blame on one person, didn't the issues begin to get bad at Spurs under Jose? Look at the situation at Man Utd with Shaw - pretty much wrote him off, threw him under the bus, drove over it, backed up and went back over him again. Shaw has done well recently, but not all players are going to take that sort of treatment and recover from it. I don't know if it is just an attitude thing with Alli or something else. Worrying though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't come back from that and reach the same heights. He's clearly struggling. Sadly spot on, his agent pulled a rabbit out of the hat getting him a move to Everton then even more amazing a move to Turkey Be it a mental health issue, attitude problem or carrying an injury sadly for him he looks finished now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W-S-M Seagull Posted March 17, 2023 Report Share Posted March 17, 2023 It's really sad. Clearly he has long standing issues due to his parents and other stuff in his personal life. Yea he's a footballer and a multi millionaire but he's still human. Mental health doesn't care about wealth. For him to get back into football he'd need to get some real help and to find a club where he will have a arm put around him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post robinforlife2 Posted March 17, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 17, 2023 As someone who struggles badly with their mental health, and considers ending it all on a weekly basis at a bare minimum, I truly hope he is okay and gets the support he needs. I hope he finds a way to overcome his struggles and something people should never forget "you don't throw away a whole life, just cause it's banged up a little". 20 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Dele needs a manager and a club that will love him. What I know of Nige is if you're on board with him then he'll treat you like a family member. You often see him having warm interactions with certain players and I think that's what Dele needs. It would be a risk tho for us. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamC Posted March 17, 2023 Report Share Posted March 17, 2023 13 hours ago, The Journalist said: Pretty remarkable that he's still only 26, has 37 England caps... but hasn't played an international for four years. I'm struggling to think of another fall from grace like it. And, you have to say, all things considered you just hope he's OK. Me too. Players have suffered career ending injuries at their peak but can’t think of a similar situation to this either. As has been said already, unless he’s completely lost his motivation there sadly seems to be something far more troubling involved. Whether that’s mental or physical health is impossible to know, but if I was him I’d come back to England now & get help. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joking aside, maybe he needs to come and hide in somewhere like the Championship to get his head back together. Feel genuinely sorry for the lad, remember him playing against us for the MK Donkeys, he looked class even as a kid. Shame. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next to been seen playing for Enfield FC Has that actually been suggested? Genuine question as I may have missed it and can't be arsed to trawl back through the thread! Unless he seriously drops his wages, I would suggest a move anywhere, would be out of the question because of how "broken" he appears to be. Would be a huge gamble for anyone on the wages he would be on. For someone at this level, even PP clubs next season for example, you'd have to be pretty confident of getting the real Dele back, and getting promoted. Otherwise it could get very messy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how the coach complain, he has stated that Alli has been banished to the stands for the rest of the season, if I was Alli, I would go and do a bit of sightseeing as well. It seems like Alan Walsh had a better time at Besitkas than Alli is having. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he was at MK Dons his manager said that sometimes he loved him and other times he wanted to knock his head off. It was worth his putting up with such a disruptive presence because a multi million transfer was just waiting to happen. If we signed him we would have the ruination of the squad through his attitude but with no big transfer fee incoming. He'll go to some foreign club you've never heard of for a last big payday. He isn't a Chris Waddle who will keep playing through his love of the game until 42 whilst slowly working his way down the leagues as he began to slow up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that said something about his character even then. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
