Jose talking about the "best Dele" here. Can't comprehend a Spurs or England team without a "best Dele" in it. Strong implication he sees him as one of the best in the world.
Brilliant stuff from Jose !!!
He's overrated but his stats speak for themselves, goals and assists is what it's all about.
Like Lampard, I never had him down as world class (some will argue) but he was never a Gerrard but he got goals.
I was lucky enough to see and be on the same field as a true world class player. I am very sorry but at his best Dele is good EPL player with a few flashy tricks and flicks. World class is a player who can turn a game on its head not just with one bit of skill but with consistent passage's of world class play. I am talking about Gazza true world class who makes Dele look average
Jose said today he does not see Dele as a MF . He sees him in a free role playing close to Kane.
Dele did say a while back , although he wasnt playing at his best he was learning and appreciating the contribution of other positions. Making him a more complete player.
As I said before, once fully fit, he'll trust his body again and find his form and will only improve again from there.
We have to hope he can get a good injury-free run now.
