The problem with Alli is he floats centrally and that leaves us open on the wing.Dele has to play. I watched that BT highlights package yesterday and he sets up most of the important goals to get us this far. Eriksen v inter at home and Lucas x2 v Ajax.
Sure he hasn’t had the best of seasons but in the big games his contribution is massive, as is his work rate. If we want to stop their fullbacks getting forward then he’s paramount in preventing that happen.
I'd love to see him fit in the team and it's a nice problem to have but I'd really like to see Son and Lucas get in beyond Kane and play counter.
Alli knows how to get into space in the box but he can't do that from CM and I wonder if we'll have that opportunity against Liverpool.
