Tottenham Hotspur’s Dele Alli is slowly but surely finding his feet.
Mauricio Pochettino has told Football London that he has been impressed by Dele Alli’s return to form for Tottenham Hotspur lately.
The 21-year-old midfielder has endured a very mixed season for Spurs but has reminded frustrated Tottenham fans of his quality in recent weeks.
Alli has scored one and set up three goals in his last two games for the Lilywhites and it’s clear that he is slowly but surely getting back to his best.
And Pochettino is delighted to see one of his star men scaling the heights that has seen him emerge as one of Europe’s truly great young talents.
“He was good in the last few games. He start to improve, and we start to recognise the player who achieved all in last two seasons. For me, there’s no doubt about his quality, potential,” he told Football London.
“It’s only because he’s young, he needs to breathe sometimes, take some time to again perform in the same way.”
Alli is undoubtedly a brilliant talent and he remains one of the most exciting young players in European football, but consistency has been his enemy this season and only when he performs to a high standard on a regular basis can he be considered world class once again.
