Supporters of Tottenham Hotspur have been reacting to an injury update on Dele Alli which was shared by the club.
On Wednesday, Spurs posted some of Jose Mourinho’s quotes to social media in which he discussed the English midfielder (per Tottenham Hotspur).
In those quotes, the Portuguese manager admitted that Alli had a ‘small injury’ and is ‘not ready for tomorrow [Thursday]’.
He said: “It’s a small injury but he’s not ready for tomorrow. He’s had a sad history with hamstring injuries so he has to be careful. We cannot risk it when he has a little problem there.”
Lots of Spurs fans then responded to this on Twitter with their views.

The game which Mourinho admitted that Alli would be missing is their trip to Bournemouth on Thursday evening.
Would you class Dele Alli as a key player for Tottenham Hotspur?
Yes, he needs to play
No, he's not that good
He shouldn’t be starting anyway so not that bad of a miss

This season, the 24-year-old midfielder has been in solid form for Spurs, having been their sixth-best performer in the Premier League (per WhoScored).
To earn his stature as the side’s sixth-best performer, Alli has delivered a 6.89/10 average rating over 24 league appearances.
3 months with no injury then our training starts and they drop like flies.
