Was brilliant and helped rose lock down the left side, did all the little things we needed. Composure, closing down, helping keep the shape, bringing the ball up the pitch, winning fouls to alleviate pressure.
Very underrated part of his game.
Knock the ball ahead, too far ahead. Lure the defender to commit for a challenge, then a burst of pace to get to the ball first, shield with his body and win a blatant foul.
Not so funny anymore when people said we had the back up is it......
Poch not using people doesnt mean they are shit

Hes a great player to bring on no matter what the score in the match. Driving runs to push us forward if we need a goal, energy and aggression to snuff out the opponent if we're leading. He still feels he has something to prove to the club, where other players who have 'made it' are not as bothered.

I always thought we bought a flimsy, luxury player but in actual fact Lamela is a tenacious fucker who works his arse off, he may not always do the right thing but he will give 100% . I like the fella
Let us be honest, over the years the faux comparisons with Eriksen have been irrelevant. Eriksen was the better attacking player with the record to prove it.
However, Lamelas primary asset is no longer going forward, quite the contrary.
Still, I am still uncomfortable with him in midfield. IMHO his best position is as a false 9, and he is a very, very good finisher.
Are you 12?
Who the fuck are you? And why you commenting so late. No need to reply, see you offer fuck all in content and context
I just wanted to highlight your embarrassing juvenile behaviour.
I get frustrated with Lamela's corners sometimes, but then I saw this....
Noted. Cunt
Think he looks in outstanding physical condition this season (relative to his physiology).
Not running off centre, as much, think he is eating right and did the right things this summer past. Maybe started Yoga or got a new PTI?
Love Coco, he is a driving player.
When Eriksen goes (hopefully January, but doubt it), I think we may see a level or two rise in Lamela's game, as clearly there is a rivalry thing going on due to them arriving same time and wanting the same pitch positions.
In Poch's place I would start Lamela over Eriksen (right now, unless/until Christian can find his game again, for longer periods of the game, as it is way off right now).

I love Erik Lamela, Erik Lamela loves me!
I have it on good authority that Lamela is a large doner kebab and chips man....
Does that fit the script?
Him and Rose are our masters of the dark arts. They know just how to draw a foul whilst still playing within the rules of the law themselves.
