Alan Brazil and Ally McCoist slam Dele Alli for turning up at Everton in Rolls Royce

Alan Brazil and Ally McCoist slam Dele Alli live on talkSPORT for turning up at his new club Everton in a Rolls Royce this week.

Dele joined the Toffees on the final day of the January transfer window from Tottenham Hotspur and is looking to reignite his career again.

Alan Brazil has randomly taken issue with the 25 year old however, claiming he shouldn’t be turning up to training in such an extravagant car.

🚗 𝗔𝗹𝗮𝗻: “I want Alli playing…but he’s arrived in a Rolls Royce! Don’t do that!”

🤷‍♂️ 𝗔𝗹𝗹𝘆: “I don’t think you’re wrong but we’re a completely different generation.”

“It didn’t annoy me but I want to see the guy playing his football again…” Brazil said during a conversation with Ally McCoist.

“Maybe I’m old fashioned but he turns up in his Rolls Royce and I’m like ‘ah no Dele, don’t do that.’ Little signals like that to me… am I wrong Ally?”

McCoist replied: “Listen mate, I don’t think you’re wrong. You’ve got to combat it by saying we’re of a completely different generation. I’m with you Al, wee little things like that. I’m bursting for Dele to do well.

“Everton fans are working class people, I don’t know if it sends out the right message. However, I do accept that you and I are from a completely different generation.”

Alan Brazil and Ally McCoist choosing to slam Dele Alli for turning up at Everton in a Rolls Royce caused a stir online with fans defending the player…

@simmy1878: He could arrive in a spaceship for all I don’t care. As long as he does it on the pitch that’s what matters

@afinley406: He has been earning a lot of money for a long time I dare see he can afford a few nice things no one complains when businessmen turn up in nice cars

@nathjhill318: Breaking news – man drives to work in car

@inthezoneuk: No problem with turning up in a Rolls Royce, but then he has to deliver on the pitch. Nobody cares about a player’s external interests, cars etc. All they care about is what they do on the pitch. And if they don’t deliver, then those external issues become a target.

@Icevain7: he aint gonna come in a caravan is he

@Everton78Nsno: He earns a lot of money he’s entitled to spend it how he likes. Not like anyone tells you how to spend your money

@alan_gibbons: Absolute nonsense as usual. It’s all relative…. He earns over 100 times the average earnings. Average hatchback is about £22k. So if his car was £2.2mil+ it would be in line with your average hatchback. Rolls Royce to his salary is like a £5k old banger as average

@JamesBrownEFC: Should he have walked?

@Luke_Vials: Not a particular fan of Dele Alli or Everton (obviously) but basing your football analysis on a car is truly pathetic. Talksport really are dross these days

@louorns: I genuinely believe Talksport is one of the worst things to ever happen to football. It causes unnecessary hate and puts different stigmas towards players. Sooner that company is burned to the ground the better

@LiamTHFC98_: This is absolutely ridiculous! Just in the door at Everton and he’s already being criticised. What has it got to do with anyone what car he drives? Is he gonna suddenly turn his career round by rocking up in a fucking Ford KA? Lay off it Alan.

@Amopinion08: I have to agree with Alan here. Players earn to much money and turn up with ridiculous cars and hairstyles and clothes.

@TwittaTwatta13: They don’t earn too much money. They are at the top of their profession and work in the entertainment business and also their clubs are earning enough to pay them that kind of money. What would you do, say no thanks just give me £500 a week?! You and I can only dream of tht money

@eideangm: BREAKING NEWS: Footballer who earns a lot of money has an expensive car! More as we get it.

@Stevieboi696969: I think Alan is jealous because he wants a Rolls Royce but works for talkshite so can’t afford it.

@carling_4737: What sort of cars does he think the other Everton players are turning up in? Fiestas and Mondeos?

@Wolf277Wolf: You do realise the idea that all scousers are skint and on the dole is a tory lie, there’s more millionaires per thousand in the area north of the river Dee upto Lytham st Ann’s and out to Manchester than in any other area in the uk

@DemaraiArmy: All I’m hearing is that a footballer has drove to work in his own car?

@life_as_brian: What a ridiculous argument! Look forward to hearing about every other signing in the PL and their choice of car! He’s got a nice car. It’s not like he’s doing donuts in it in the car park or wrapped it in bling shouting look at me! Let’s just give the lad a chance first shall we!

@garyianbrown3: Yeah because his roller will stick out like a sore thumb amongst the Bentleys and the other prestige motors the other players drive

@SCOA22: Never mentioned his Rolls when he was plying his trade in London!! If he doesn’t put a shift in Alex Iwobi style & starts insta stories flaunting his wealth, that’s when we moan. No need for him to turn up pushing Freddy Boswell’s bin cart just because he’s in Liverpool. #EFC

@tomosefc: He’s just moved to a new city. He doesn’t know the bus routes yet and it’s a bit cold to be hitch hiking – had to settle for driving the car he owns. Clampets you lot

@ColBennettH4: That Dele Alli story about his Rolls Royce is ridiculous, what do people think he should drive around in a 73 yugo? There’s lads in the second tier scooting around in 200k lambos. Business has changed.

EVERTON STATEMENT ON DELE ALLI:

Everton have completed the signing of midfielder Dele Alli from Tottenham Hotspur on a two-and-a-half-year contract until the end of June 2024.

The England international, who played 269 times and scored 67 goals for Spurs after joining in February 2015, is new Everton manager Frank Lampard’s first permanent addition – following a loan move for Donny van de Beek from Manchester United on the final day of the January transfer window.

Dele could potentially make his Everton debut in the Premier League fixture at Newcastle United next Tuesday.

The 25-year-old, who is Cup-tied for the weekend meeting with Brentford, has 37 England caps and was an instrumental figure in the Three Lions’ run to the 2018 World Cup semi-finals.

On joining Everton, Dele said: “I’m delighted to have signed for Everton, a huge club with a great fanbase and history.

“I’m eager to get started and can’t wait for my first game in an Everton shirt.

“I’m looking forward to helping the team and the opportunity to work with the new manager Frank Lampard.

“I’ve had a few good conversations with him [Lampard] already, he’s a player I admired through his whole career watching him. I’m pleased to work with him, it’s very exciting, I’m sure we can do great things together.

“I just want to be happy playing football. Working with Lampard, and the great players Everton have got, is a great opportunity for me to do that. I’m excited to go there, show the fans what I can do, and help the Club as much as I can.”

Dele reached double figures for goals in his debut Premier League campaign in 2015/16, adding the Young Player of the Year prize to a goal of the season award.

He scored 18 Premier League goals in 35 starts in his second Spurs season and claimed PFA young-player honours for a second straight campaign.

The midfielder, who represented England at the 2016 European Championship and Nations League finals in 2019, directly contributed to 20 Premier League goals – scoring nine – in 2017/18.

He was a key performer as Spurs progressed to the 2019 Champions League final – and has four goals and 10 assists from 26 appearances in Europe’s premier club competition.

Dele made his senior debut for MK Dons – the club he joined as an 11-year-old – aged 16, and scored 16 goals in a League One promotion-winning campaign in his final season in 2014/15.
