I don't remember anyone questioning their work ethic. Lots of people have questioned his though. But there is no doubt he is talented and given the correct conditions, yes he may do the biz for anyone who can give him what he needs. I have no opinion about him being a dickhead, just an opinion...
It is not nonsense to find that one's opinion of Welbeck and Lingard do not match the opinion of the player in question. The two aforementioned players are both known for being very hard-working and having a great attitude. That is questionable in regard to Ali.
If we did sign him, I hope you...
