Everton midfielder Dele Alli's former coach at MK Dons has backed him to find his best form.

The ex-Tottenham Hotspur attacker has been out of sorts over the past few years.

He even failed to make a loan move to the Turkish league work, as he struggled at Besiktas.

"I think the place he's in right now, he seems to be in a good place," Karl Robinson told talkSPORT.

"The fact that he's injured might not be a bad thing, short-term.

“I know he wants to play, but he's still got that time to set himself, to get ready and go again."
