​Tottenham midfielder Alli: I want to step up in big games

Tottenham star Dele Alli wants to step up his game in the coming season.

He has never been one to set targets for himself at the start of a campaign.

But he knows there are many players fighting for a place in the Spurs starting lineup, which means he will have to up his game.

Alli wants to add more goals and assists to his repertoire, especially in the biggest games.

"I'm not one for setting targets for goals and assists but I want to bring them back into my game," he told the press.

"So of course, I've set myself a little target.

"I want to perform in every game, not just the big games. I feel good. I haven't had any problems during pre-season. I'm feeling strong, I'm feeling fit. So, yes, I'm excited."
