Player Watch: Erik Lamela

[Francis Gibbs]

I thought Lamela had proved himself now... why is this still a discussion?

err because he hasn't beyond the ivory tower of this thread

 

[Francis Gibbs]

based on what though? you moan about lamela's lack of production in the final third but sissoko got one goal in 40 last season.

playing in a woeful side - that will improve as will his assists

 

[THFCSPURS19]

you cant compare PL goals to EL goals - PL much harder to come by.
Eriksen was given a crap pass by Verts for the Coutinho chance so not his fault
Eriksen didnt give away the penalty, so its a bit of if my Aunt had ........ conversation. That said if his tackling was as bad as Lamelas then yes I would call him on it.

Why you hating on Eriksen, not cool at all

I love Eriksen, and if you look at my previous posts, I have defended him massively and still do. But the fact is he's been shit in the first 3 games of the season, and he, at the moment, is the one who deserves criticism, not Lamela.

Your last line is hilarious given that I could say the exact same to you regarding Lamela.

He was a key part of a team that performed better than we have in the PL in decades, yet you still heavily criticise him. Fucking ludicrous if you ask me. Especially given that he's arguably been our top performer so far this season.

Because Francis Gibbs lived on the Falklands in 1982...

Sissoko has scored 37 goals in his whole career, we're not signing him for his end product.

....... read that back, he has been shit for 3 games.
Lamela was arguably totally shit for 2 seasons

He has, that ivory tower is in your mind.

think we sign every player for end product ......

Maybe Spurs Community should evaluate members based on this criteria.

you off then?

Yeah, which is why I said AT THE MOMENT, he is the one who deserves criticism. I'm certain he'll get out of his bad form eventually.

Can't wait for Pau Lopez to get 30 a season.

While it would be a stretch to call the troll 'clever' - it certainly has enough street smarts to manipulate people into keeping itself well fed

why do associate end product simply as goals and assists?

That's literally what you are doing.

 

[Francis Gibbs]

That's literally what you are doing.

nope it literally isnt ....... goalkeepers end product is clean sheets for example

 

[beats1]

Don't think Lamela should be benched for any of our signings this window, just now at least.

Would rather see Sissons in for Wanyama or Dier in the next match to give us a better balance in cm.

All I and Eriksen might be more worried they won't get a start with the way they they are playing

He has played CM 3 times in the last year.

2 times for france before being moved to the RW and once for Newcastle in a 6-1 defeat.

People saying we should play him in CM overlook the fact he hasnt played there consistently for years

 

[THFCSPURS19]

What would you consider end product for Lamela and Sissoko?
