Former Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp has slammed Dele Alli over his slow start at Everton.

The midfielder called an end to his Tottenham career during the closing stages of the January transfer window after failing to establish himself under a number of manager, with his move to Goodison Park seen as a fresh start.

Redknapp told talkSPORT: “What's happened to Dele Alli? Frank brought him in and was so excited about signing him, there's got to be something wrong with what he's doing as he can't get in the team.

“He goes back to Tottenham last night and it's almost embarrassing. He was such a big player and when you go back to your old club you don't want to sit on the bench.

“You want to show them what you can do. He's done nothing since he's been there.

“I've been one of his biggest fans, but there's a few of them that need to start performing as they are in desperate trouble."
