how long do we persist with him on current form. He was by far our weakest performer at the weekend.
Really? I watched the game too and that seems like a bizarre conclusion.
Spurs official site has him equal in successful tackles to mason that game with 4, beating eriksen's 2 and kane's whopping 0. Lamela's passing accuracy of 81% to mason's 79, to eriksen's 74 to kane's 68.
It's just stat's but as I say I watched it too and to say he was by far our weakest performer seems a little off.
I'm not offended by criticism of any spurs player, but I dipped into this thread and see talk off facts, looking past personal feelings and passing balanced views, followed by the same people launching into opinion pieces. Some posters are even saying sell in the summer and cut loses.
All our players have put in pretty decent performances in the last few games, yet people seem to need to have to pick on a player that played, so why not pick the young foreign one who cost 30m, is coming back from another injury and didn't score at the weekend or take it around 4 players in a single dribble because their expectation is that he should.
Realistically he hasn't played bad at all on his return. Workman-like, direct and positive... as usual.
