Dele Alli Accuses Amazon of Not Showing Full Picture of Relationship with Jose Mourinho
Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Dele Alli has accused Amazon of not giving the full picture of his relationship with former manager Jose Mourinho. The England international’s career appeared to be on the up when Mourinho took over from Mauricio Pochettino, but Alli quickly fell down the pecking order and struggled to win the trust of the Special One.
In a recent interview with Gary Neville, Alli revealed that the relationship between him and Mourinho was not as fractious as was made out in Amazon’s ‘All or Nothing’ documentary. He also said that the ‘lazy’ comment made by Mourinho was taken out of context, and that the former Chelsea and Manchester United boss apologised to him for it.
