I have said it so many times, can’t fault his commitment but plays with his head down looking at his feet. He doesn’t see what is going on around him. That’s why he often ends up just running into defenders, or doesn’t find a teammate. Compare him with Kulu, who has a great awareness of what’s around him, he is always looking up and assessing his best option

Lovely cameo from Lucas today. I know it was only Norwich but I wouldn't mind seeing Lucas played at RWB again.

Conte finally gives SC what it's been asking for... a little soupçon of the winger as wingback sauce..

But let's be honest, Norwich were atrocious, still not sure he'd do it against a side that pose any attacking threat whatsoever.

I do think there's a time a place for Moura at wb going forward. Its nice to have that versatility in the squad.

Not for me. Always greateful for Amsterdam but I feel it's time he is moved on. No idea if he'd want to leave or just see his contract out though. Surely he'd want regular football somewhere but who knows. Probably the last window we could get good money for him.

I think he will do everything in his power to stay on for next season. He absolutely loves playing for Tottenham

Watching all our PL goals back and how did Lucas' goal v Norwich at home not get picked as contender for goal of the season?



From about the 3.00 mark.

I think it was the same month as Salah's wondergoal. Salah won goal of the month and unfortunately Lucas' goal got a little forgotten in the goal of the season reckoning

Even for our own one it seemed to be forgotten about. The build up, the passing and then the finish. It was a quality goal for me.

I'm really surprised Moura isn't being looked at by Conte as a potential RWB. He seems very difficult to dribble past and is freakishly good at getting his head on the ball for his size. Obviously his defensive positioning would be a problem but he seems to be the kind of player who listens to their coach and works hard.

He isn't switched on out of possession. He will press and do what he's told but generally speaking he ball watches and the game goes on around him.

Not sure how I feel about this. Love him for Ajax. Love his leaping ability. But nobody knows what he is going to do with the ball and doesn’t score enough. Plays with his head down. A bit like Stirling but in a different position. I don’t think Conte can really change him. A real Turmoil player.
