The midfielder has
been one of the season's revelations, and is tipped to play a major role
for England in the European Championships.
He
however failed to exert much authority on Monday when Spurs struggled to
break down a resilient Albion side with little to play for.
Spurs coach Maurio Pocchetino suggested Alli has already become a target for the opposition. "Sometimes the opponents find him and try to provoke, they know he has a strong character and may react."
