Dele Alli quarrels with Jose Mourinho, what’s the problem? -Tottenham Hotspur coach Jose Mourinho had an argument with Dele Alli. The incident took place when The Lilywhites won 3-1 over Stoke City in the English League Cup quarter-finals, Thursday (24/12/2022) morning WIB.
Playing at Bet365 Stadium, Gareth Bale opened the scoring for the visitors in the 22nd minute. But Stoke equalized through Jordan Thompson (53).
Thompson’s goal was inseparable from Alli’s mistake in midfield. Mourinho, who was disappointed with the midfielder, immediately pulled him out in the 66th minute and was replaced by Erik Lamela. After that the onslaught of the North London Club came alive. In fact they can score 2 additional goals through the actions of Ben Davies (70) and Harry Kane (81).
After the match, Mourinho admitted that he was deeply saddened by Alli’s performance. Although actually the England national team midfielder has been trusted as a starter for the first time since November 26. “Yes, players in that status should connect attacks and open opportunities. Not even creating problems for his own team,” said Mourinho, taken from The Sun.
“Certainly under such circumstances, the enemy can strike back behind our defenses. We took a step back and changed games that we should have mastered. Yes, I am furious,” he said.
Their rift has been smelled since this season. The fact is that Alli has often been on the bench this season.
This situation confirms the issue if Alli wants to leave Tottenham. Paris Saint-Germain is called the club that is ready to accommodate him.
