Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho admits Dele Alli is unhappy after being left on the bench for their 2-0 Europa League win over Royal Antwerp.

Alli disappeared down the tunnel during the game, though did return to the bench in his non-playing kit and was the only unused substitute not to take part in a post-match warm-down.

Mourinho also said Alli had his blessing to go to the dressing room but added: "Yep, but let's not run away from the reality.

"A player that is on the bench and then realises that he's not one of the five players (coming on) of course is not a happy player, and I wouldn't expect him to be happy.

"But every player that is on the bench or every player that leaves the pitch in cold weather, with me, they can go to the dressing room and I even prefer if that happens."
