It’s just regular tabloid stuff, don’t know why you’re all obsessed with hating it. Pre season starts next week and that’s all that really matters but it doesn’t mean the papers are trying to destroy him ffs. It’s the front page equivalent of transfer BS

Didnt the sun used to put cans of lager outside Gazza's door so he'd get drunk and do something they could print?

Not sure they can cast any stones.

It sounds like he was just having a few drinks round the pool with his girlfriend and maybe had a few too many in the sun. It doesn't sound like a big deal.

Off topic. Is the transfer / ITK thread down? If not they must have banned me as I cannot see them

To be honest, most sportsmen across the globe like to party from time to time; it's not that much of a big deal if it's done in moderation and at the correct times of the year.

Further to this, sportsmen (and women) are complete light-weights. I've known exceptionally talented amateur runners and gymnasts, and after 3 pints they're in the gutter and feel rough as the next day.

As long as Dele (i) isn't doing a Lloris and (ii) gets his form back I'm not bothered.

The Sun is sickening. I mean, few days ago, many Hong Kong people and youngsters risked their life and future to occupy the Parliament. Many front pages of UK newspaper were reporting this historical protest. Then, the Sun thinks that dele drunk in the holiday is equally worthwhile to be a front page news. I know the Sun is shite, but I also feel sick as a Hong Kong people.

(I am really sorry if I should not talk about some political issue in this thread. I will delete this comment if it is inappropriate)

We all hate and detest the Sun for which it stands. The unfortunate thing is there are so many who would rather know about the inebriated habits of Deli Ali than give a damn about what is going on in Hong Kong, so will always buy the sun.

I detest these people even more. Its like hating Trump but also acknowledging and hating the morons who actually voted him more,

Welcome to our world mate, not gonna lie it’s pretty shit especially now the mods have taken the decision to keep even the signed player threads in the transfer forum where banned members can’t access them.

Never mind, thems the rules. Sucks to be us!

i don't care about being banned from there but i don't see why the transfer forum can't have their own player threads rather than take the ones from here. i wanted to discuss one of foyth's recent performances for argentina only to find it's been moved, presumably because of some tenuous bs link that won't come to anything.

I’ve taken using another forum more lately due to this.

Just create a new thread on the subject

Very tough for you guys...life bans ,it just seems OTT to me . 1 or 2 windows yes , but for life ! So harsh... It can lead to the permanent departure of good posters . I don't understand it .

...And , now we're here, I hope Dele pulls his socks up next season ..

Glad to see he got back with his girlfriend as they’d split up and thought I saw title off story where he was trying to win her back (didn’t bother to read it but just nice he’s got her back being the ‘ol romantic I am).

And who cares if he’s getting drunk, he’s on holiday.

Mucky tabloid papers always trying to stitch up England players in particular just to get their mucky headlines.

There is not a single top sportsman that’s reached the absolute pinnacle that isn’t 100% dedicated and made msssive sacrifices. That’s the difference between the very very best and the also rans. Completely up to Dele what choice he makes. It’s why Rooney never got to Ronaldo messi levels.

Young guy has a few beers on holiday no big deal. He wasn't hurting or being offensive to anyone. That said he really needs to up his game next season; either become a goal scoring/assist machine and be less effective further back or become a more rounded CM/AM.
