DELE ALLI has vowed to ‘make improvements, not excuses’ as he continues his difficult season at Tottenham.
The England international has played just 21 minutes of Premier League football since being hooked at half-time of the opening day defeat to Everton.

Alli, 24, has now failed to even make the substitutes’ bench for Spurs’ last four league matches, amid a rumoured rift with Jose Mourinho.
The Spurs midfielder is still determined to work hard and get back into the team, however.
And he has shared a picture of himself working out, captioned ‘Make improvements, not excuses’.
Of his 7.2million followers, Alli wasn’t short of replies, including from a former team-mate.
Michel Vorm, who recently announced his retirement, wrote: “My bro 💙🔥🔥🔥”.
While NBA legend, Spurs fan, and Brooklyn Nets head coach Steve Nash commented: “💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽”.
Alli most recently featured against Royal Antwerp in the Europa League.
But, like against Everton, he found himself hooked at the interval with the team trailing 1-0.

He was then an unused sub for the Europa League win over Ludogorets a week later.
Alli joined Spurs from MK Dons for £5million back in 2015, scoring ten times in 33 Premier League outings in his debut campaign.
He then peaked the season after, netting 22 goals and laying on 13 assists as Tottenham came second in the Premier League under Mauricio Pochettino.
