He lacks consistancy but then doesn't every player(almost) in a Tottenham shirt?. He was poor against PSV, he didn't beat his man once, his crossing was poor and i'll stand corrected but wasn't it his piss poor free kick which didn't even reach into thier 18 yard box that lead to their goal?. He's nowhere near a finished article but he needs to knuckle down and work hard. To me he looks the type of guy who thinks he's twice the player he is. No way would i put Adel in before him, atleast Lennon tracks back.

Ramos will sort him and the rest of the team out given time. Tottenham haven't won the league for over 40 years and bar the odd cup win here and there, we haven't had much to shout about. Playing well week in and week out as a team is a difficult task, getting the players as individuals to do the same is probably twice as hard, it's why we don't compete on a regular basis. It's taken god knows how many managers and players through the door over the years to try and achieve this, i believe Ramos will, eventually.

I'd swap Lennon with SWP or David Bentley, the 2 players he is in contention with for Eng's RW spot, in a heart beat. As good a players as Lennon is for me he has'nt moved on/improved a bit since season 05-06. He has become a VERY frustrating player to watch as we all know he has the ability. He was por in the CC final and worse against PSV. When in realy matters it seem he has the inability to step up his game. I would dearly love him to prove me wrong, but as the weeks/months go by I'm finding it more and more unlikey that he will get to the level we all hope he can reach.

If you want to see improvement in a player look at Bentley. Yes he's an ex-gooner, but that aside since he has joined Blackburn he has imprroved season on season. I have'nt seen that improvement in Lennon. Maybe some serious competation for his place will give him the kick up the backside he needs.
