    Not on this day:


    It was at that moment that Ben Foster decided to waste every second of every game against us. The twat.
    Either that or when he got chipped by Paul Robinson.

    The Besiktas manager has been critical of Dele, says he been below expectations.

    This felt like a last gasp move for him to reignite his top flight career.

    Think the Championship or even a return to MK Dons is calling him soon. What a huge fall from grace for a player who at one point looked to be worth almost £100m.

    It's very sad. He appears to have lost his passion for the game, which was a massive part of it.
    We all wanted him to lose his spitefulness and naivety, but he's replaced it with apathy.

    2015-17 seems like a lifetime away. :(

    I hope he has had decent financial management
    since coming to Spurs (so he see out the test of
    his life in comfort) , as his prime time pro career
    is IMHO nearly at an end.

    It was the MLS cup final today between Los Angeles FC and Philadelphia Union

    Bale came on for LA at 97 mins (was extra time) with the score 2-2. It was announced there’d be 9 mins of stoppage time. On 124 mins Philly scored to make it 3-2 and they tweeted their player was greater than Bale. On 128 mins Bale equalised. LA then went on to win on penalties.

    Philly deleted the tweet about Bale <laugh>

    You feel that the conversation he had with Maureen was possibly the first time someone had told him to his face that he wasn't nearly as good as he thought he was, describing the distance still to journey to become a truly world class player. I respected the fact that Maureen had that conversation with him and also his honesty. But watching it back, Dele's body language is all wrong (contrast it with Kane when he and Maureen had a similar chat). He glances away too often and seems to slump in his chair. There is a smile on his face but in his eyes you can see the fear of the dawning realisation that ahead of him stretch years of hard graft and dedication.

    I think that was the moment he threw the towel in. Moving to an Everton team in absolute crisis where every mistake was being picked up on and booed by Boodison was an astonishingly poor error of judgement.

    Not even sure he had much choice. Everton seemed the only club willing to sign him and that was on the basis of paying an initial fee of £0. I guess he thought he’d start a number of games and try show the world he wasn’t finished but things just got worse. The fact he’s struggling in Turkey now is a serious concern. Many players in their 30s have gone there for a last hurrah and impressed, Nkoudou and Gedson have even carved careers for themselves and yet Dele’s being called out for poor form… honestly not sure where he goes from here after this loan. It may possibly be good for him to look at a return to MK where he’d be loved and hopefully rediscover his joy of the game, whether he could swallow that much pride and drop two divisions though I’m not sure.

    What a poor clip to put up (better not than that IMHO) .
    More so as I cannot see whether the "Palacios" mentioned is our very own.

    What an odd post.
    Suggest you find your own clip and post it if this one is not up to your standard. :emoticon-0148-yes:
