Not the place to discuss this, but 3 good recent games do not yet make up for the turgid football he has produced over the past 2 seasons. He has so far been a disastrous signing. His recent form has done enough to merit one more season, but to be honest it will have to be a drastic turnaround to convince me.

I remember having the same conversations on here last year about Soldado, about how he was turning it around and how next season would be his year.
Yep not the place. Don't let a player being injured for most of his first season get in the way of your assessment.

You don't watch football do you millsey?
Ive watched every spurs game the last 2 years. Has Lamela impressed me? No. Has he been poor in 90 percent of those games in my opinion, YES. Do I want him to turn into a superstar. YES

Just a shame Lamela is so slow. If he had at least a tiny change of pace his tricks would actually allow him to get away from people. But as it is he beat someone with a trick and then they just amble back and take the ball from him. I think we / he need to accept he just isn't a player who can dribble past people. Every time he tries it he loses the ball.
You cant slag off Lamela in here, they will be after you!

Lamela's potential ceiling for quality is higher than anyone in the squad.

Selling him and seeing him grow into a top player elsewhere would be super dumb.
Based on what? what he did at Roma for a season? what on earth has he shown that's shows hes going to be so good?

Thought you may run out of reasons to express why Lamelas world class.

Yeah and just think about what a good player he could become if he learns to use his right friggin' foot! So one footed it's embarrassing.

Never said he was. Just quite annoying hearing you bang the same drum over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.
Your banging a drum about how amazing he is, over and over and over and over again

Haven't banged that in here. I only tend to do it in Lamela thread or match ratings when he has played well. You and all the other Lamela haters seem to like to bring it into any thread and any conversation you can. Yeah, we have had ITK on him that he isn't likely to leave, probably best you accept that there will be a player here next year who you obviously have a strong dislike for, and probably for very little reason other than he cost a large sum of money which isn't his doing.

I don't care how much he cost. Are you actually saying hes been good for us the last two years? As I said I would love him to prove me wrong, but we all said give Soldado one more season, Paulinho just needs to learn the league, if Capoues fit he will be a monster, ect ect ect. Cut our losses now because he has so many points to his game he needs to change he will be 30 till he settles in this league

Lamela has the drive and flair to be everything Townsend isnt.

He will be a great asset as Poch brings in more players suitable to his style

Only if he's more often than not played centrally for me. I'd prefer more pace down the right hand side.

I'm glad the itk is that we are keeping him. He does seem to envoke a jenas like split of the fan base though.

Quick question, how is it spam? Or off topic? Discussing Lamela when there has been Lamela ITK?
