Tottenham Hotspur ace Dele Alli has taken to Twitter with a message for the Spurs fanbase and for teammate Lucas Moura which has gone down a treat with plenty of supporters.

The 24-year-old was once again impressive for Tottenham in pre-season as Jose Mourinho’s side ran out 4-1 winners over Reading on Friday.

An early Omar Richards own goal saw Spurs gifted the lead, before Alli, Son Heung-min and Erik Lamela had Mourinho’s side four up.

George Puscas then netted a consolation from the penalty spot for the Royals 10 minutes from time.

Aside from being involved in most of Tottenham’s good work in the first half, Alli was teed up by Lucas to get himself on the scoresheet with a great lob over the Royals keeper.

Alli was left out of Gareth Southgate’s England squad for the nation’s upcoming Nations League fixtures but is now surely giving the Three Lions boss some food for thought.

And his post-match message on Twitter, praising Lucas and also declaring he’s “just warming up”, got plenty of Spurs fans excited:

Though Alli’s form picked up after Jose Mourinho’s appointment last season, he missed six games after the Premier League’s resumption – one due to suspension and five following injury.

However, with a big season coming up for Spurs, it certainly looks as though the £100,000-a-week ace is on the right track.
