Manchester United vs Tottenham Hotspur: 5 key players for FA Cup semi-finals

#4 Dele Alli

Alli is now the creative chieftain

Unfortunate to miss out of on the PFA nomination despite a stellar campaign, Alli can put the records straight with his heroics at this stage. Tottenham's midfield maestro has assumed a greater role this season for his side by dropping deeper and keeping the creative juices flow.

Alli is more than just goals now. With 14 assists and 62 chances created, he's become more of the quintessential No.10 than he's ever been.

The upswing in his playmaking activities has eased the burden off Christian Eriksen, who's resultantly bombing forward with more regularity and enjoying a prolific vein in goal.

Against a United side likely to keep things tight at the back, it's his ingenuity and ability to cut open the defence that would be the key if Spurs were to outscore their rivals.
