England manager Roy Hodgson believes Dele Alli has the potential to be the new Bryan Robson.
Roy Hodgson has given Dele Alli his most glowing endorsement yet by suggesting the youngster could be the current England side's answer to "Captain Marvel" Bryan Robson.
The Tottenham midfielder has enjoyed a breakthrough season at the club, having scored seven goals in 42 appearances in all competitions, while also breaking into the England team and even marking his starting debut with a tremendous goal in a 2-0 win over France.
And with Alli, 19, set to pick up his fifth cap, England manager Hodgson said the teenager can emulate the feats of Robson — who scored 26 goals in 90 appearances for the national team — in his midfield.
