For sure. Great things about Lamela are his incredible workrate and strong mentality. Wouldn't surprise me to see him put a MOTM performance this Thursday and pretty much erase his performance against Fulham.
Wishful thinking - for some this performance has already been mentally squirreled away for the archives, ready to be brought out with a flourish any time Erik either starts playing well ("He was shit against Fulham so he's inconsistent") or if he has another bad game ("He's been terrible all season - remember his performance against Fulham?").
Social media is utterly lousy tonight with total bullshit from "fans" posting stuff like "Hopefully now people will see the real truth that Lamela is shit".
If Erik puts together a run of games and his form picks up - you know, like it has every single time he's ever had a run of games for us - the dickheads will all go quiet for a while until he either gets injured again or has a single poor performance. Then all the good stuff will be wiped clean and this game will come out with the rest of the **** Catalogue.
