"Leaving was a difficult step to take but it's one you have to take at one point or another and, for me, I think it was the right time. It's tough to leave your family and everything, but this league, for me, is the best in the world and I am very happy here. Now I just want to focus on trying to help this club win trophies."
Doesn't sound like a player who is in any rush back to Real Madrid & La Liga.

As long as we're challenging for trophies and pay him accordingly, I wouldn't be surprised if he sticks around for several seasons, even if Real Madrid do trigger his clause.

I also think he'll finish as the top LB in the league this season.

I said when we bought him that I was really looking forward to seeing this kid play, and by Christ he’s delivered.

Loving this guy already.

Think he’s looked absolutely shite.

Cant defend, can’t pass, can’t pick out a teammate in the box, his teammates hate him, the fans slag him off on social media and his girlfriend looks like Rocky Dennis.

If I was Real Madrid I wouldn’t go anywhere near that buy back. In fact I’d probably stop watching his performances for us and pretend he doesn’t exist anymore.

A bit harsh, you should probably give him another month to prove himself.

Got to be a bit of a concern that Zidane is about to get fired. Only reason he's here is because Zidane doesn't rate him.

I used to have Lamela as my phone background when he first joined. Bumped into him at the hippodrome at the time and tried to explain to him how excited I was he joined us, couldn't understand me at all but tried to be friendly. His brother (who spoke better english) was with him and was shocked I knew his name (I knew it because he gave some interview which was our main source of ITK before he joined at the time), I only spoke to them for a couple of minutes and left them to it. Anyway in the next game Lamela was given a shock start vs City. We conceded after 14 seconds, Lamela missed a shot on the line and we lost 6-0.

There's a lesson in there somewhere, never meet your phone background before a big game.
That's so true!

I've got Luke Skywalker as my wallpaper and I met him on Dantooine once. This was a few months after the first Death Star, before he went off to Hoth. He only spoke Galactic Basic, so I couldn't really speak to him much, but I did manage to say, 'may the Force be with you' in my broken Mon Calamarian, which he seemed to appreciate. All-in-all, he seemed like a nice guy.

And then he went off to Hoth and got mangled by that Wampa.

I had Darth Vader as my background and when I met him I asked if I could have a selfie and he just said “NO!!!!!!!!”.

He was never the same after Lucas messed with the films.

it isnt. like I said, I honestly dont know what people are seeing other than his desire. He gets forward well, gives the ball away and is out of position on the counter.
I guess some people like attack minded quick footballers who are regularly involved in goal involvements and also show commitment and aggression in regaining possession.

Not for everyone clearly.

I can't remember the last time we saw a player add so much so quickly to our team, could he improve defensively? Of course he could but it's still so early in his career with us and if this is his starting point then fuck me, we've got a top player on our hands.

He's obviously a good player, some of the comments are a little OTT I think but I can understand that - I think what will make a difference is his speed and speed of thought, he's rapid and tends to read situations really quickly and of course his obvious quality on the ball, those things make such a massive difference especially since Ben Davies didn't have those qualities, will and had made a lot of difference to the way we attack.
