Doesn’t do himself any favours with cameos like that, does he? (I’ve said numerous times he should’ve been given more minutes this season).
After being so heavily criticised for it, I can’t believe he’s still doing these infuriating, unsuccessful flicks. That one on the edge of the box today was criminal and unnecessary. He did another midweek just inside the box, when all he needed to do was a simple pass. When you consider the poor passes and the amount he gets tackled as well, it’s not acceptable.
Sell in the summer and spend it on defenders. I believe we could fetch more than what he’s worth.
Oh and before anyone mentions it, a lack of match sharpness isn’t an excuse for the flicks.

It was a Dele flick on the edge of the box that set up Lucas for the winner in Amsterdam?
I appreciate it’s annoying in your own half but you have to be brave and try high risk-high reward football in the final third. Would be ridiculous to suggest otherwise.

He was superb when we finally broke our SB hoodoo but that was all a long time ago.

I’m surprised your memory lasts that long as you seemed to misremember the Stoke incident earlier
----------------------------------------------------------------------
?
I remembered the incident but not who it was against.
I would of googled it before hand if I'd realised that was a problem.

Yeah the incident where he lost the ball. Then it got circulated back to the opposition keeper, who then hoofed it upfield and Stoke scored against a settled defence

Literally the last time Dele did a flick around the opposition box was midweek which lead to a great Bale opportunity and a good save
----------------------------------------------------------------------
And again today, with a nonchalant flick outside of the boot with Son waiting further over free that went to the defender 2 yards away to be cleared.

Gone downhill ever since he became a regular in the England side.

Ok you clearly didn't blame him for that goal but Jose did and his opinion is what counts (at the moment) if Dele wants to get into the team.

He wasn’t great but I would still give him and bale a proper run

Be has shown that he deserves it. Dele has not.
Bale for Moura would be my change (and Toby for Sanchez, or Toby and Rodon for both cb's)
Dele needs to show he's working for the team and not to try and just look flash before he earns a run

Dele can get a good run out in the dead rubber of a second leg in the Europa. Maybe then he can show us if he is worth starting in the next PL game.

I'm sure we'd all love to see Dele return to his best but I think unless he adapts his style and becomes more measured and less flamboyant he is doomed while Jose is manager.
I think both of them are digging their heals in and I'm not expecting anything to change for the remainder of this season.

Yeah we are dreadful at the back dier and sanchez are woeful I think it's always gotta be Toby and one other.
Dier keeping getting caught under the ball is doing my head in.
