Dele Alli admits to being disappointed by Thursday's Europa League defeat in Anderlecht but says his full focus now is on Tottenham's trip to Bournemouth this weekend.

And the midfielder, who came off the bench in Spurs 2-1 defeat in Belgium, is confident the Londoners can bounce back at the Vitality Stadium having not lost in the Premier League since the opening day of the season.

"The boys are disappointed from the defeat to Anderlecht but I think it's important that we pick ourselves up and move on," said the former MK Dons star.

"We'll keep working hard in training, take the positives from that game and work on the negatives. There are no easy games in the Premier League but hopefully we can get the three points on Sunday.

"It's not going to be easy. Bournemouth are a great team, they've got a lot of strengths but so have we, so hopefully we're going to go there, play our own game and try to get the three points.

"We're going to their patch, they're not going to make it easy for us and we know we're going to have to fight for the win, but I think we've got a great team so we'll work as hard as we can."
