Jose Mourinho hails the contribution of 'team player' Dele Alli as Tottenham midfielder makes the most of his first appearance since October with pivotal role in 4-0 Europa League win

Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho paid tribute to 'team player' Dele Alli after he helped his side to a comfortable 4-0 win over Ludogorets in Group J of the Europa League.

England international Alli was making his first appearance since October 29 - when he was hauled off at half-time of a 1-0 defeat at Royal Antwerp.

It saw the former MK Dons midfielder drop further down the pecking order at the north London club, but he was back for the clash with the Bulgarian outfit to make only his fourth start of the term.
