Dele Alli can walk the walk like Conor McGregor... but Eric Dier exposes Tottenham team-mate's poor defence with cheeky slap in Instagram video

A sublime effort from Dele Alli but concentration is still lacking in other areas. But this isn't a review on a Tottenham Hotspur performance from the midfielder.

Joking around with Spurs team-mate Eric Dier, the 20-year-old attempted to copy the famous walk from UFC dual-champion Conor McGregor, with his fellow England international filming for a post on Instagram.

But just as Alli hits his stride he is caught with a slap to the back of the head from Dier.

It's a strike that clearly catches the midfielder by surprise, causing him to partially lose his balance on the stairs as he makes for the banister.
