Speaking to the media Redknapp compared the talents of Alli to those of Paul Pogba, Manchester United's world record signing, pulling no punches in declaring that Alli is the more valuable of the two young stars.
On the comparison between Pogba and Alli Redknapp stated:
“I think he’s worth £100m now – if Pogba’s worth £90m, Alli is worth more.
"He’s just 20 years of age, for heaven’s sake, and the kid’s got everything.
He scores goals, makes goals, he can dribble, head it, he’s got an edge to him and puts his foot in... I think he’s fantastic."Redknapp also believes that Spurs are now favourites to win the Europa League this season and can go on to lift the trophy, our first since 1984, but also shares the concerns of many Spurs fans regarding the different atmosphere at Wembley when compared to a home game at White Hart Lane.
"I did warn that playing home games there in Europe would be a massive disadvantage to them.
It’s such a different atmosphere at White Hart Lane, because the crowd’s on top of you and the noise is tremendous. When you’re at Wembley, the game is slower, there are big, open spaces and it’s just not the same."Time will tell whether Alli continues to develope as a player and help drive us on to success, both domestic and European, but The former Spurs boss believes that Alli's future remains with Spurs.
“If they continue to progress, they have got a squad that can win the title in the next year or two — so I’m sure he would want to be part of that.”Read more of Harry Redknapp's thoughts on Dele Alli, Tottenham and The Europa League here.
