Dele Alli shot back into form shortly after José Mourinho replaced Mauricio Pochettino as Tottenham manager. We assess the strengths that make him so formidable https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👇" title="Down pointing backhand index" aria-label="Emoji: Down pointing backhand index">

Alli was previously too often getting on the ball in front of opposition midfield lines when he would prefer to be on the other side of them, and posing a more immediate threat on goal #THFC

Should an opponent move towards Alli too early, Alli quickly moves into the free space, or tries to find a pass to a teammate in that area. If they don’t follow him, he is left with space to turn #THFC

At 2-0 down against Olympiakos, Alli scored on the stroke of half-time, and it is arguable that he wouldn’t have been in the position he was to tap in so opportunistically following a defensive error were it not for Mourinho changing his role #THFC
