Apart from his cheating and challenges. Doesn't he really have one hell of a punchable face?
Delle Alli awful challenges

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Don't think the tackle is a red. Think the pen is definitely a dive though. The defender only makes contact when Ali is half way to the ground
It's a dive that didnt need to be a dive; he almost botched it because he could have ran into him and then fell.
The way it happened is that Alli was falling before there was any contact, so it was technically a dive.
Clear dive for the pen. Yellow for the tackle
For me, no pen but not a dive as such. And yellow was right for the challenge.
Pen decision.... TMO... ref goes to side or refers upstairs. Two mins = no pen and yellow for diving.
Game improves.
Simples.

Yellow for the tackle and A dive for sure.
Pen is an obvious dive. Don't see anything majorly wrong with the tackle other than it being a crap one.
People quiet clearly being swayed by bias. I think Alli is a thug but that's a yellow card challenge all day and 100% penalty even with a little dive.
Really hope he gets retrospectively banned for the dive. But I won't hold my breath.
It was deservedly a yellow, not a red. And it was a rightfully given pen.
Anyone disagreeing is either blinded by bias or bitter that Spurs signed Alli for just £4m

There was contact he was perfectly within his right to go down. This is getting ridiculous
Bias I can understand but why would anyone be bitter about what Spurs paid for a player?
tackle is 2 footed with some scissoring going on too, it's pretty adjacent to red if it isn't quite a stonewall one
and he's due a red card surely,
and he's due a red card surely,
"clear dive, he went down before the contact!" - "you're just bitter we got him for 4m."
... okay then.
... okay then.
Laughable even by Glaston's low standards.
Because of the tens of millions shelled out for inferior players - Mkhitaryan for £42m euros for example.
Thought Sissoko did well this evening.
He was on his way down before the contact. He is a diving shit.
Oh God, the insufferable condescending side to Spurs fans returns after a solitary win after retreating into their shells when they were taught a footballing lesson by City.
United were beaten by City - and you were the home team. At least Spurs went to play football and went aiming to try and win. United played to try and scrape a draw and got what they deserved: nothing.
"We lost better than you"
This confirms it. There is nothing Spurs fans won't boast about.

The point stands: you lost at home trying to scrape a draw. Spurs lost away at least trying to win.
Dour-inho lived up his name.
This is a 21 year old kid you guys are talking about. Listen to yourselves.
You conceded 4, didn't you? Genius tactics.
So what ? How does age come into it ?
Just hope Alli does not play for England in the World Cup, as he is almost certain to get sent off.
Your defence for him is staggering. He routinely makes cynical maiming challenges and constantly lashes out when things aren't going his way. He's a petulant thug on the football field.Tackle was yellow and that was given... But that pen was a dive.. Will he get a ban? No he is English they dont dive....
Didn't think it was that bad of a tackle whatsoever
Not sure in the slightest what United’s transfer dealings have to do with this thread. But oh well.
That tackle wasn’t all that bad. It’s probably a yellow but nothing more.
The feck does age have to do with anything? A younger Wayne Rooney was constantly slated for his antics and I don’t remember his age being used as an excuse for his feckery.
Lol yeah and plenty of 21 year olds around the world are cnuts. Cry about it.
Of course the boys on Match of The Day were adamant it was a penalty and not a dive by England's precious own Dele Alli. To be fair his challenge was barely worthy of a yellow, though.
Fist-magnet!
Not that much wrong with what they said. Some cnutish words here and there, but the general consensus seems to be that he cheats a lot and has a nasty habit of going into dangerous tackles. There is truth to this. Age should be irrelevant. He needs to cut this out, both filming and making overly aggressive tackles.
