Genuinely feel bad for Dele. I remember his peak back in 2018. He was destroying teams for fun. Its sad to see such a talent be wasted

Mourinho's full speech to dele alli " Have a sit. Okay first of all I think you know that I like you. You can feel it. I like you as a player and I like you as a kid you're a nice kid. I don't want to be your father you have one I don't want to be your uncle or your older brother I just want to be your manager but with a close relationship. Therefore I have to be honest with you. Maybe deep inside you tell me to F off but I have to be honest There's a big difference between a world class player and an average player that can have world class moments. . So you have to do the analysis not me. I saw you during 2 seasons at spurs do incredible things. And ask yourself Why did your career went from MK dons then tottenham then national team up up up and you reach the top then collapse . Why do you have ups and downs? I don't know if you use to be a top pro and now you're out partying with girls I don't know. Only you can know that You have to demand more from you not me demanding more from you. Not your teemates . Only you. I'm 56 now and yesterday YESTERDAY I was 20. You know what I mean? . So time flies mate. Time flies and i think in 2 years from now you will regret how you handled your career if you don't seize the opportunity I don't want you to be MOTM every game I want you to be harder on yourself and reach your actual level. Thank you my friend. See you later " Jose mourinho 2019. This isn't a football conversation. This was a life lesson

He used to be one of my favourite players back in 2016-17 sad to see his talent being wasted.

What a fall from grace for this once talented lad…

Who else remembers that one crazy goal from him outside the box. Now look at him

His downfall is not only because of his attitude. I believe it is down to multiple factors: oversaturation of games, media hype and high expectations. It really can hurt player career and let's be honest, English media DO love to overhype English players a lot.

Could Del Alli be suffering from mild-to-severe Depression? Some people can go through life undiagnosed, untreated and then blamed for their attitude and behavior.

He's frozen in my memory, winning at Stamford Bridge in 2018. Determination and superb ball control, winning the ball and working the play to set up Eriksen stunner from the corner, then getting on the end of that long ball from Dier, bringing it down, one touch and flicking it past the Chelsea keeper on the half volley 😮...Never dreamt at that moment, he'd fall off a cliff to where he landed in Turkey today. Very sad.

As a Besiktas fan I just feel for the guy cauz I know what he is capable of and it's clear that he's suffering mentally which is just sad to see

Always nice to hear a serious convo about him instead of the usual “He doesn’t care anymore”

Im a Besiktas fan. The coach has a character that always says what he thinks. You can have your own opinion on that but it not just happend with Dele Alli but also with Nkoudou for example. He had big hopes of Dele when he came. Also, Besiktas tried to terminate his contract in the winter transfer window but Everton didnt agree because they also didnt need him. So things arent as simple as you think sometimes. I had really big hopes when he arrived. Hopefully he can recover next season

He could have been one of the best midfielders in the world if it wasn’t for his attitude

Anyone see his interview?

Hes good mates with someone I know and that person I know posted a photo on his private insta the other day and Dele Allli was passed out drunk haha

Ben White sees football as a job. Just putting it out there.. sometimes you just gotta be professional. It's a life thing. I get that not every person is gonna have that Passion as obviously as someone like Zinchenko, I get that. Or I get not everybody is going to have that almost Obsessive Drive to be the very best like Messi & Ronaldo & maintain that level. That's a top 1% kind of man thing. But still have a good mindset & appreciate. Hopefully, he's getting the right kind of help if that's what he requires. I don't know, but maybe therapy, mentors or a life coach, but it's more than just a football thing. I truly believe it's deeper with Dele, I strongly believe it's a Personal Life thing. Really want him to open up about it in his senior years

He has a specific skillset like donny van de beek, thomas muller, davy klaasen, fellaini, kevin nolan, soucek etc the manager has find a very specific role for him even at the best of times. Cause he’s not a good dribbler, he doesnt take a man on like a winger, passing range is very limited, no defensive awareness, no legs to go box to box. Once players like those i mentioned were left out, it’s hard for them to get back in and produce.

I remember being in London a few years ago and seeing advertisements for his clothing brand on the underground. I thought at the time that was at best, premature. Maybe a pair of Dele strides will have a rarity value in the future.

It all started when he got them weird ass rainbow dreads 😂

i always find it funny that people have that outlook on players like Dele Alli, that they just don't care enough and that's a strike against them. But when we talk about Ronaldinho for example, almost everyone just focuses on the delights he performed on the pitch and not the fact that after his peak at Barca, football was just never his priority again. Football isn't everything and thats more than ok

You may not know Senol Güneş but he's known of these kind of tricks. He is simply trying to boost the anger and shame inside the player to force him into play the way everyone needs. He is a manager of team play. And Delle is trying to be the king. This is not Saudi Arabia. He needs to learn to be a part of the team.

Reminds me of Benoit Assou-Ekotto who used to make it very clear in interviews that he wanted to be a race car driver and wasn't very fond of football. He just did it because he was good and it paid him and his family well

Honestly feel bad for him, but if he’s got a bad attitude then he’s got a bad attitude and unfortunately it takes more than raw talent to make it as a footballer. Another great video Viz 💪🏻

Be interesting to see if he can improve again now sober and received help

Great video & insight on all aspects of the situation, you've been smashing it with the recent videos & this vid is another example. You'll easily get over 2.5k likes for sure & keep smashing it 🙌

i love how well researched these vids are, quality content🤟

work ethics and attitude are always more important factors than talent.

Christ the content has gotten so good, anything in particular that made you make the jump from fifa to this type of content mate? Been banging for a while now

Can see him playing in the MLS next season. He'd probably love it in the states tbf.

Really hoping we see a turnaround for Alli at some point. A period like Lingard at West Ham would be nice to see

Always a good time when Vizeh uploads

I know I say this on every video but you are absolutely smashing it. Also Dele Alli during 2016-18 was my favourite player and it's such a shame to see him now. Also I was wondering if you would be interested in doing a video of a sort of season review for a great title race/relegation battle in your style I think that would be incredible

I really wanted you to do this video hahaha, glad you did it :)

This guy had 1 of the best games for Everton v Crystal Palace 21/22 season. Solidified and run midfield to get us from 2 nil down to 3-2 winners. Saved our season that day. 1 and only thing i have good to say bout him

At this stage, he should give MLS a go. The pressure would be less and he could be a top player in that league

Born Into poverty and a hard life.. He was born in Milton Keynes in England. What about the players from Africa and Brazil who had no boots and walked 5 miles to training and back, struggle for food, large families etc who have the drive to make it and HAVE to keep earning to provide for family ..Please don't make excuses for Deli he hasn't had it any harder than anyone else

What makes your videos so good is that you are so balanced and fair. I feel Dele is going to bounce back. And when he does, it's going to be amazing

Great vid lad 👍

I like the new direction of your channel. Keep it going.

As a Besiktas fan I lost all hope in him. He doesn’t care anymore. When I watch him it’s as if I’m watching a Sunday League player. He’s become washed and doesn’t have an interest in football. Honestly he should retire at this point or return to MK dons.

Quality content Vizeh!

My dad was at the Palace game when Alli scored *that* goal. He said the whole ground applauded him.

Waiting for a follow up video about the snus, hippy crack and alcohol…

Dele Ali is the Ben Simmons of football

I've known Şenol Güneş ( Beşiktaş Coach ) for Years.He single handedly build up players like Burak Yılmaz, Selçuk İnan ...he Turned a Mid Talisca to an Superstar , he sold Cenk Tosun to Everton after he went 8 Games 8 Goals in the CL ..He was the Turkish Coach in 2002 When Turkey became 3rd and Only lost to Brazil in the Half Finals .. This man is an Absolute God when it comes to get Everything out of Player foreign and Domestic.. ( Iam a Galatasaray supporter btw ) .. Şenol Güneş is not just Anybody. If dele can't make it Under him he can't make it anywhere. Turkish League is 2-3 divisions under the Prem and Dele Alli Absolutely Sucks ..😂

dele was always in my pro evo squads , had mad stats, was sad to see him fail to live up to the standards we all know he was capable of

just about to watch the vid but I want to say I love the new video style and to keep it up

off topic but please make a video about saint Étienne its been a disaster i remember having amazing players and was going for the title thanks for another great video

Never though about looking at footballers from the point that some of them treat it as a job. I love football and I always thought how fun it would be if I was a footballer (we all had those dreams haha) it would be fun and enjoyable cause it's a great sport. Never considered the fact that some people could actually make it to the big levels and hate it. Quite an interesting take, keep up the good videos Liam.

Never feel bad for people like Delle Ali.

I remmember that clique of young english players; Rashford, Lingard, Dele, etc we all used to watch their IG stories and interviews. I truly expected him to become a top 10 player, England starter, possible league winner. He has a classic case of burnout IMO. He probably wants to be doing something else with his life, we have to realize that a lot of these players chose football as a career when they were like 13 years old. I think Neymar has a similar predicament but he can coast on his talent and reputation. With a sport like football if you don't love it with all your heart, it will show in your fitness, in your effort etc. Not all players are meant to have a 20-year long careers at the top, some will retire early and move to a league like the MLS. I just hope he is doing well behind the scenes, because it can be rough going from a genuine A-list celebrity to being booed and banished from the Turkish league and failing at Everton.

Remember when he signed for Spurs, Liverpool were strongly linked at the time. Was gutted then when we missed out, he was super for the first few years at Spurs. Shame to see a talent wasted all the same 💚💚

He was sooo amazing! Watching him live was something else!! Its a shame but he is the only one who can turn things around and hes gotta wanna do for himself and not for money or whatever! Hes still young enough to turn it around!

Another Banger as always Liam!

I honestly think football teams should invest more in 2 aspects of a football player: 1) their education, specially financially, as footballers often don't even finish high school, and get taken advantage off by their family, goldiggers, or agents. 2) their mental health, as most footballers often come from poorer backgrounds and face quite a lot of adversity and eventually lose themselves: Gardel, Adriano, Alli

Being a professional athlete takes more than just raw talent, you need desire, dedication, self discipline and a very high work ethic, sadly weve seen a few raw talents disappear very quickly because of this! What a waste

I really feel like if Dele Alli finds his love of football again, we'll see the magic he once had. Another great video!

I hope he gets a chance, even if it's a championship or lower club, and finds his enjoyment of the game again. But I am looking forward to his autobiography when he writes it!

Ben Simmons of soccer

He said he had a doctors appointment, and although Mourinho was partly right we (Everton) got rid of him because would've had to pay £40 million after 80 games. Also Lampard never played him in his proper position even one time.

I’m just wondering what Sean Dyche will do with him

Curtis Woodhouse (Sheff Utd, Birmingham etc) is a similar story. He came from nothing to make it as a pro at Sheff Utd where he got his England U21 caps. He had a shortish career in the game (not helped by being a party animal) before publicly saying he'd "fallen out of love with the game". The difference with Alli is that Woodhouse seems to be more a natural competitor and went on to a career in pro boxing where he became British light welterweight champion. He's now managing non-league football. His autobiography is well worth a read.

I have absolutely zero sympathy for this guy. I was not sure before but now I am convinced that this is down to his attitude. I was never a fan of his but he has previously demonstrated his ability to compete at this level. He has taken his foot off the gas. Plain and simple. He's pissing away whatever talent he has and it's nobody's fault but his own.

Any chance of a video about Joaquin Sanchez ? He’s 41 still playing in La liga and in Europe maybe add in his “guassa” how funny he is and how under rated he is he’s a proper legend funniest man in football no one comes close

That goal he scored against crystal palace has special place in my heart he only 27 years old really hope he has redemption in his career feel like he is facing personal issues in his life

3:34 It's also unprofessionell to not show up to training

Absolute wasted talent envy to those who work for their talent but some are gifted like this man and take things for granted

Completely changed my outlook on Dele. This reminds me of a line from a TJlovesfights video of how hungry Connor McGregor died, something along the lines of when the big payday arrived, the hunger died because the job was done.

You take more than a little bit of inspiration from Perspective's F1 channel but your content has been improving lately so... keep up the good work.

Mental Health is serious it can ruin your life

I'm gonna say this in the nicest way possible, but I have no sympathy for Dele or the situation he is in considering this is all his fault. He just dosen't care. Attitude issues can only be changed once you notice them yourself. Literally every Manager who has gone through him about this and it never changes. I think we all remember that video with Mourinho where it's fairly noticeable that he gives no shit about what Mourhino had to say. He quite literally dug his own grave and jumped in it as soon as he was finished. If there was, at any point, a moment where he should've begun changing his attitude was after the Mourhino talk. Well, he didn't, and this is where he is now.

There have been many players in the past with a natural talent to play this game we love, who have been the next best player to walk onto a pitch. Then the fame of being a celebrity becomes too much and they can’t or don’t know how to deal with it, remember Gascoigne blowing up in the cup final!

i was been there on an job which i don't like which i purely did for money but when you have enough money in your bank you would lose the motivation, but glad i was out of that now i'm at a place where i would love the job having fun now it came clear for me money may buy you happiness but more important is self satisfaction, may be ali thinks he's done with football and wants to move on but sometimes if you can't use your talent to your full potential it's on you nobody else, if you think you're going down make a habit of things which can cheer you up and keep up the motivation i always do that, you're so right about messi and ronaldo they know their potential and they grabbed to it and kept up with their motivation and that's why we called them as one of the great's who ever thinks i'm done no one is done in this world you just need a little push you may be get this from a friend or by urself just don't let down yourself Love you all

I love dele Ali always have since 2016 and no matter what happens he will still have my respect.

I used to love seeing him in 2017 and he got young player of the year, it's just sad seeing this decline, can't forget that circle to the eye celebration too everyone was doing that

I remember seeing him play MK Dons back in the day just a shame he doesn’t put the effort in anymore.

Hi Vizeh do you know when Liverpool won their first FA Cup title who it was against and who they lost to in their first FA Cup final appearance in 1914

I remember he wasn't fully fit at the worldcup. He is never the same after that.

Just imagine we could have had a midfield 3 of him rice and Jude….. that would be absolutely mental

He needs a manager like TEN HAG to switch him on

Even though I don’t Iike him one bit, the coach of Besiktas is a Turkish football legend, as a premier goalkeeper he won 6 league titles with a club that nobody knew, as a coach he led Turkey to 3rd place finishes in 2002 World Cup and 2003 confederations cup, and secured back to back championships with Besiktas etc.. Btw, Turkish league is physical, less reliant on tactics, and highly emotional. Not a nice place for a comeback story

If he already wasn't super in love with football I bet the press and media attention surrounding him didn't help. Almost can't blame him for losing his spirit with everyone dragging him all the time

I’m from Milton Keynes and I know I’ll see him in a dons jersey again

He should go to MLS it would be beneficial for him and the league. His talent would be praised over here.

Never thought I'd see a career so full of promise, just blow up like that.

I don’t think he changed to much it was the league the environment players around him that changed look at spurs decline when they sacked poch that’s when it went wrong for deli in my opinion he wasn’t aloud to do what he wanted and he didn’t like it

Sometimes it happens to people when their dad goes to get milk and don't come back

He needs an Arteta style manager to kick his butt back into it

Respectfully, Lingard isn’t comparable - he lost his Mum (and she wasn’t copus me rush for a long time before), his granddad and had to look after his younger siblings… not to mention United kinda mucked him about and so did West Ham

Due to join Scunthorpe next season from what I've heard.

another player that thinks as football as a job is carlos vela. mexico legend said that hed be one of the best in the world if he actually liked it and tried

As an Everton fan, I have an inside track on why they haven’t cancelled the loan. It’s kind of explained with the intense talks with dele alli before he joined. From what I understand, the loan is set with a big cancellation fee as Everton wanted him to go for the full season as they planned to recruit new players in central midfield. With Gueye, Garner, and Onana coming in, Everton wanted Allis wages covered for the full season. As a result part of the cancellation fee is to cover his wages for the rest of the season, meaning if anything Beskitas would pay more to send him back than just freeze him out. The talks at the start were probably based on figuring out if he was worth the gamble as they’d be stuck with him otherwise. I think Senol might be trying the last thing he can think of to get Alli back to form. He might look at it and say we’ve got him anyway so I’ll try everything I can, and maybe this is his last roll of the dice.

8:51 he’s no Mardonna

We don't know what he's battling maybe he's going through alot and maybe he's got people pulling him down but I think he should let go and go where he's appreciated Dele go to the MLS The Chinese League or the Middle East league go make money and forget about the ones that put you down bro

Mourinho called it

Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard

The answer believe it or not was 1965 Liverpool 2-1 Leeds United that’s Liverpool’s first ever FA Cup trophy in their history and their first final involved Burnley winning 1-0 vs Liverpool

Please do a similar video on Lingaard

You hit the nail on the head... People get burned out. Especially in a sport like this.. Imagine playing for 3 hours day, everyday for 20 years. Honestly, those who don't get tired of it are a bit twisted if you ask me. It happened to me. By my senior year in college I was tired of it. As a kid I love the game. In highschool it was the best but once I started playing in college, the 3 hours a day for 4 years strait was enough. Sure, my skills were beyond anywhere I thought that they'd ever get to but it was just too much having to go 100% EVERYDAY! And it's a game where you MUST give 100%. Like I said, anyone who doesn't get tired of doing that is one odd duck IMO...

if people dont realise by now that it is strongly to do w his mental welbeing then idk

Let's not forget the guy's scored a goal in the world cup quarter final 😢
