2020 Dele still scored and assisted more than Maddison. Maybe he would struggle but it comes to different playstyle, different formations.
And seriously, why do you think he lacks work rate/discipline? He's making more pressures than league average for midfielders. Same with
tackles. Distance covered and sprints are very good too.
Why does everyone get so obsessed with stats rather than actually watching the game to tell if a player is good.
So because stats tell you he makes more pressures than the league average, you're claiming he is good at pressing? He is crap at pressing, pressing is about really accelerating towards a player and doing it as a unit, from watching Dele and not going by stats he is very very average at pressing players. Lucas and Lamela are way better than him at pressing and nicking the ball.
Why do i think he lacks work rate and discipline, because i watch every Spurs game. He walks around a lot, stops with the ball a lot, doesn't press with any intensity and can literally play only one position a floating role behind Kane.
Are you honestly saying you've been impressed with Dele this year and think he has shown great progression in his career since his breakout year with us? Away from numbers, is this what you're saying?
He is so average and too many have rose tinted glasses with him. No top team in the best leagues in Europe would go near him, that is for a reason. He isn't good enough.
