He's the definition of meh, all pace and no brains.
Lucas Moura forgives youWaste of space. Done nothing since he went to PSG.

Plenty of Spurs fans doing exactly the same tbf mate.Re-watched both Moura goals on YouTube. The confidence and anticipation of being up against the best keeper in the world and the way he literally spins the ball - really was impressive. Both goals he hits with power but with spin on it. Moura knows what he's doing. He's evidently a shy lad, who has had the pleasure of a Poch full pre-season, more time with Poch, than when most of the squad were away, and is now fuelled by confidence. In any job, you're lucky if you get those one-on-one moments when boss is able to speak to you directly, when you're normally in a sea of many.
Thought he looked good in his cameo appearances last season. It seems like Poch has took the time to coach him to be exactly what he wants him to be.
This is clearly not a matter of form. He's perfectly suited to Poch's system, now completely understands the system - and he and we are going to reap the benefits.
When we're firing on all cylinders....who the fuck do you mark? Zonal marking will barely work, man marking is dangerous if the man loses the ball. Do you mark arguabley the best striker in the world, Kane? One of the best playmakers in the world Eriksen? Deli Alli who scores 20 a season? Dembele who we all know can dance around players for fun. Or Moura who was disregarded by the dumb UK press as a flop in pre-season - but has blistering pace and end product? Son's not even back yet!!!!!
That's a fucking worry for every opposition team and manager that has to meet and mark these players.

Wonder if the club was thinking the same at all regarding their interest in Martial and Zaha...Plenty of Spurs fans doing exactly the same tbf mare.
Can't wait until Son is back and we have a pacey finisher either side of Kane. (probably only against teams outside top 6)
...................Wanyama
............Eriksen...........Dele
.....Moura.........God...........Son
v Fulham? I think that's because we had Dier in CM in front of a back 3, which never ends well.Made me lol but didn't we do that formation against someone and eriksen and Alli were just overrun until Dembele was summoned?
To be fair we did have Sissoko in the midfield that game.Made me lol but didn't we do that formation against someone and eriksen and Alli were just overrun until Dembele was summoned?
Would be propah tasty seeing Moura - Kane - Son up top.
I was pretty adamant we didn't need more pace. To be fair we have yet to see it match up against a team truly parking the bus and seeing how that works out.Own up.
Who said we didn't need pace?
Won't be a popular suggestion but sticking Lamela in there somehow would be even better, in my opinion.
He's got the ability to not only see those runs that Moura is constantly making/willing to make, but also play the pass, too.
Carrying on with my probably unpopular opinion, if he can get/stay fit, Lamela will be as important and productive as any player currently being praised within our squad. Yet another "new signing" that we already had on our books.
You are not alone with this sentiment as it mirrors my way of thinking. I would love to see Lamela and Moura included in an eleven which also includes Eriksen Dele and Kane at some point but may never happen.Won't be a popular suggestion but sticking Lamela in there somehow would be even better, in my opinion.

I'd stick him in the middle of the park against teams in or just above the relegation places. People may say so many attacking minded players in the same line up will leave us open and overrun but if it's ok for Guardiola....
