I don't get the Lennon love, he had an average season he may have been amazing in 5 or 6 games (the Utd home game by far his best) but he was shit in another 9 or 10. The other 30 in between were nothing fantastic and Sigurdsson was better than him in the second half of the season.
I still think you can put a large part of bales performance at spurs down to lennon, don't get me wrong, Bales a much better player than he was and alot of it was down to AVB giving him the central role, but lennon opens up so much space for him and offers such a contrast with his agility and low center of gravity.
That period where lennon was injured, the team wasn't in as good form as we had been and i reckon the stats will show that I don't really see that as a coincidence.
I also think lennon is the sort of player who works well under AVB, someone who gives him more instruction rather than telling him to just go out there and play football.
