Tottenham midfielder Dele Alli: We can handle Wembley move

Tottenham midfielder Dele Alli insists there'll be "no problem" next season making Wembley their home.

Spurs won only one of the four European games they played at the national stadium this season.

“I don't think it will be a problem," said the midfielder. “Maybe some of the players weren't used to it at the start of the season when we were playing in the Champions League but we can't blame that on Wembley.

“We weren't playing as well as we should have done and that could have happened anywhere. The new stadium [which Spurs hope to occupy from 2018-19] is a massive statement for the club. Everything is in place for us to be winning trophies. There are a few things we need to change and improve but it's a great club to be part of."
