Mourinho is correct when he says the squad is like a puzzle.
I am sure Mourinho recognised De Bruyne's ability and certainly he recognises Dele's. But is it a mistake to move on a player, capable of greatness, in order to create funds or space to bring in someone who will actually fill an important gap in the squad?
I am a fan of Dele, but he is very much a luxury player for Mourinho, because he has to compromise the formation in order to fit him in.
Just as Jose's style of play will suit Kane and Bale perfectly, it really doesn't suit Dele.
I am very happy if he stays, but if selling him enables us to bring in a better quality of second striker, or improve on Winks/Sissoko in the middle, I would be all for that.
