Tottenham Hotspur failed to win against West Bromwich Albion in the Premier League at the weekend.
Former Manchester United and Everton star Phil Neville predicted on Match of the Day on BBC One on Saturday night (broadcast from 10:25pm, October 15, 2016) that Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Dele Alli is going to be a special player.
Neville made the prediction following Tottenham’s Premier League game against West Bromwich Albion away from home at The Hawthorns at the weekend.
Alli started the match on Saturday afternoon and played for the entire 90 minutes, as Spurs picked up a 1-1 draw.
The England international scored the equaliser for the North London outfit in the 89th minute of the encounter.
Former United and Everton star Neville was following the match, and he was impressed with the performance of Alli.
“I think this lad’s going to be a special, special player,” said Neville on Match of the Day on BBC One on Saturday night (broadcast from 10:25pm, October 15, 2016).
| Passing Accuracy | Tackles Won | Interceptions Won | Ball Recovery | Touches | Shots on Target | Goal Assist | Goals | Appearances | Mins Played | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dele Alli | 88% | 2 | 1 | 6 | 66 | 3 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 90 |
Former Tottenham defender Graham Roberts was following the match, and he took to Twitter to give his reaction to the final result.
Alli is one of the best young players in the Premier League and is a key figure in the current Tottenham team.
The former Milton Keynes Dons has not exactly been in great form so far this season, but as he showed against West Brom, the 20-year-old is a player who is only going to get better.
The midfielder is very special and exciting footballer, and Spurs fans should be pleased that he is part of their team.
