I see @faze_coys - who I might add doesn't seem to know how to use an apostrophe - has given me his second negative rating today on the basis he disagreed with my comments on Lamela. I really do feel this is an issue that needs addressing. Well established posters bullying newer ones, and going around labelling things SPAM out of utter pettiness. It's wrong! And some kind of rebuke should be given to the guilty parties. It's an attempt to silence free speech no less!

Thought he was better today. Nothing special but some nice passes and didn't run into as many opponents and fall over this time out.

He looks good when he has space and time, but struggles to create it for himself due to his lack of pace and strength.

I do think that if any of our attackers deserve singling out today, it's Chadli. Say what you like about him (and I'm not really a massive fan of his), he has pretty consistently made an impact.

Poor bloke. No one ever goes in his thread, even after games when he's made 2 tackles... :(

Would you like a tissue?

Would you like a grammar lesson?

This bitching and then insulting people back is an excellent way to ensure that you get a fair run as a new member (y)

@faze_coys - you really are abusing the rating system. Your harassment of me - for that is what it is - started yesterday when I posted on the match thread that Lamela and Mason should be replaced by Townsend and Dembele, and within five minutes of that Townsend was warming up to replace Lamela, and Dembele did later come on and Mason go off, so Pochettino obviously agreed with me, are you going to give him a negative rating too? You then sort out further of my posts to give a Spam rating to and have continued this. You're showing yourself to be a petty and small individual.

And the grammar lesson was a genuine offer. I'm an English Teacher by profession - before I became a writer and general creative artistic person. And I noticed you don't seem to use apostrophes. This can have a negative effect on your life - in terms of job prospects and so on.

Can everyone put their handbags away please. If you can't debate the merits of lack thereof of Lamela without bickering like school children then please don't even try.

Thanks for the offer fella, but im sorry to break it to you, sc is not my life, nor is it a formal environment so if i dont want to bother using punctuation while constructing a quick post on my phone i wont.

Get over the ratings ffs, how old are you?

Anyway have a good day and the offer of the tissue still stands xxx

Back to lamela....

Haven't you got one of those phones that suggests the word you want - with correct punctuation included - when you begin typing? It's just a real assault to my senses to see such wanton bad grammar.

I'm old enough not to have a favourite player any longer. When I was about 12, Waddle was my favourite player and a friend said he was overrated and had a bad hair cut. "Take that back!" I said, tears gushing out of my eyes. And when he didn't, I had a fight with him - a bundle we called it in those days - so I get the whole "becoming angry when someone disses your favourite player," thing, just not sure a mature adult should be behaving in such a way and we should be able to have a reasoned debate on the relative values of Lamela without being called Spammers.

Anyway, I'm off to sort out my Hydrangeas in the garden, so I think we should draw a line under this and the Pro-Lamela fanatics should agree to allow those with opposing views to air them without fear of harassment.

Funny how people see the same game so differently.

Being a staunch defender of Erik, I was surprised to see just how pleased people were with his performance yesterday.

Strangely enough, I feel this was one of his weaker performances we have seen. He had a few nice touches and got a fortuitous goal but his overall game was somewhat off (especially defensively). People seemed to be happier given he wasn't losing the ball but for me he was just playing even safer than he has been, I hope we aren't stifling his creativity which is his main strength.

For what it's worth, I thought his second half performance vs Newcastle was better... Different opinions n' all.

Its like it wasn't even requested.

Seeing as creativity has been raised i'm sure such creative minds will come up with how we'll use the following if it still continues……

A large courgette, a string of pearls, two ice cubes, some bright red lipstick and your mums.

I actually think Eriksen would be better in the CM3 instead of Mason. Not sure who would play left of the front 3 though.

This is where he played mostly for Ajax and I'd like to see him tried there too but Poch is set in his 4231 ways.
