Exactly.

I've always liked Chadli in the same way that I've always loved Dembele and he's now become crucially important to us.

Lamela has also been afforded a lot of time to come good and he had nowhere near the level of contribution as Chadli has made in first few seasons with us.

Our fans need to support the kid. He's been injured for most of the season and needs match sharpness is all.

That said, I still think he's more of a striker than he is a winger.
Thing that frustrates me with him is how predictable he is as a LAM as he just cuts inside all the time. You can't knock his end product as he does get goals and assists but he doesn't work hard enough for me and is too predictable to play in our system. Just doesn't do it for me but not someone id want to sell and see lining up against us either...

He has also had a tough time with his dad passing away and his injuries so always going to take time to get back on form. Needs to do a bit more though to owst lamela eriksen Alli or son.

He didn't cut in as much vs Leicester. He went down the left a couple of times rather than just cutting in straight away.

That's because he was playing so well though...surely.

Which would mean they were booing Pochettino, no?

No matter how well Carroll was playing (and I didn't think he should've been taken off) , surely booing the manager who is doing such a good job for us is somewhat silly? Especially when our beloved media are doing their best to whore him out to Real Madrid & Man Utd?

We should be singing his name at matches, not booing him.

Booing the decision, IMO.

That's probably the fact of the matter mate. I still don't understand it, though. I do understand people being frustrated with the decision to bring him off, but I personally think booing is counterproductive.

Then again, I'm not one of the lucky buggers that have the ability to spend their hard earned money on a ticket to be there.

I'm in a similar position. Once or twice a season these days.

I've not been able to go since my youngest son was born. He's 10 now, but is Autistic & I am very much part of his daily routine, so leaving him while I go to watch THFC just isn't an option. I'd love to take him up, but loud noises & crowded places just freak him out & send him into meltdown.

It's gutting to not be able to go, but some things are just more important than football.
