Alli worked under Pochettino at Tottenham in a period that saw the club challenge for the Premier League title and reach the Champions League final. It’s been over four years since the pair worked together, however, it’s clear there’s still love between them with Alli gushing at Pochettino’s glowing assessment of him. Pochettino said to the studio: “Good evening, I knew this… because I was in my manager’s room watching your interview with him with Dele. “And look, I need to talk now. I cannot see you now but I want to say hello to Dele. What a player, oh my goodness! Oh, my goodness. “So happy to see you there and so happy to see you all.” Alli has previously spoken of his love for Pochettino, labelling the Argentine as the best manager he’s ever worked under. It was Pochettino who thrust Alli into first team action for Spurs as a 19-year-old, with his stunning form seeing him win the PFA Young Player of the Year awards in 2016 and 2017. Alli: “Mauricio Pochettino was the best manager and I couldn’t have asked for a better manager at the time. “What a player, oh my goodness! So happy to see you!” ?Poch ?

It was deeper than that, I felt. “He was just so understanding of the decisions I was making, and he was guiding – like, he cared about me as a person before the football, which is what I needed at that time. And I think that’s important for young players.” Earlier on in the show, Alli gave an update on how he is following his ground-breaking interview with Gary Neville and teased a potential return to action with the Toffees. Everton could do with any help they can get as they remain embroiled in a relegation battle with Sean Dyche’s side just two points above the bottom three prior to kick-off. Alli’s last career appearance came last season during his loan spell with Turkish club Besiktas. He last played in the Premier League in August 2022 having joined Everton from Tottenham earlier that year.
