Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher feels Tottenham whiz Dele Alli is escaping scrutiny over his form.

Alli was outshone by Mesut Ozil on Saturday as Arsenal defeated Spurs 2-0.

He came off after 75 minutes in Saturday's game and Carragher said his performance wasn't scrutinised as much as it perhaps deserved.

He said: "If Mesut Ozil performed the way Dele Alli did in that game, we would be slaughtering Ozil.

"We still think of Spurs as a young team, there is no bigger fan of Spurs than me, love the way they play, the manager, the players, but we still don't treat them the way we do the other big players.

"You look at the Spurs players and think, come on, you have got to step up, now is the time."
