I'm guessing the Lee Sharpe suggestion was tongue in cheek but whatever; Dele Alli already has as many goals as Sharpe in his almost 200 appearances at Man United. The potential in Alli is immense. If anyone can think of another non-striker from the PL who scored 10 or more goals in consecutive seasons at age 20, I'd love to hear who they are. And he hasn't been taking any penalties. Lampard and Gerrard both had seasons where they scored 10 penalties each.

Nah, he was rubbish. A one paced, play-by-numbers footballer who was fortunate too be playing his trade at a club who were about to embark on an almost unparalleled run of success. Very much made to look a better player than he was, by the team and the coaching staff he was fortunate enough to be around.
I probably [read:definitely] exaggerated by branding him shít, as he did have moments (emphasis on moments as they were incredibly fleeting) but great he most certainly wasn't. Too wildly inconsistent, too few stand out skills, too often injured and far too concerned with the trappings of football life, rather than the actuality of football life. A one paced, basic football player who's career panned out in the manner it was always going to.

Neville and Carragher discuss Scholes, Lampard and Gerrard.
Carragher predictably chose Gerrard, Neville predictably chose Scholes (well he said Scholes is the best player he ever played with)
I do think we wasted Scholes' talent somewhat though, he was the closest thing we had to a Pirlo or Iniesta or Xavi.
So mismanaged by Sven or was he just not as good as Lampard and Gerrard? I'd go for the former. -
