I couldn't be more stoked for this little fucking ****. Good player, and becoming vital to the team.

Starting to become a crowd fav. Love this guy, and to be honest we all thought he was finished when he was away for so long. Love his determination, which has paid off handsomely.

Really wish Eriksen would show just a fraction of Lamelas determination and hustle
It’s really hard with Eriksen as he looks fatigued from the WC and this last injury clearly hasn’t helped. But in general hes like a ghost of his former self. He will pull out a moment of the sublime here and there and everyone will feel relieved but he has been consistently poor for the majority of matches.

Fits perfectly in the system, works hard, wins games on his own, hates Arsenal and Chelsea with passion, he's a legend in my book. Wish more players had his attitude.

I love our attacking midfield depth, so happy we've finally shored up that part of the field.

Good finish with his non existant right foot which he doesn't have. Also wasn't it a right footed cross for Kane goal? Shame about his touch when put through... Would of been to get a brace.

One of the few players that we can rely on at the moment.

His work ethic and his creativity have always been there but now he is a huge goal threat.

Easily our best player, so far, this campaign.

@piedpiper - genuine question, not trolling. What have you made of Lamela this season?

So I promised you a response about a month ago.. I was thinking about tagging you. You've beaten me to it.

Honestly I have to say I have been happy with his contributions in ALL the games he's been involved in this far... I've gone from swearing him to actually enjoying his contribution.

Like any player he can mess up in moments of a game but nothing serious. I genuinely wanted to give him 10-15 games before I gave an opinion. I no longer find myself being frustrated with his decision making etc.

I must add that prior to his major injury I saw glimpses of his current play. I can admit that he is now an integral part of the team.

I think he took his goal well yesterday too. Now spurrific this is in no way a membership application to the fanboy club :p.
