“One hell of a talent” – Some Spurs fans excited to watch Erik Lamela
“Polish up your boots sunshine and let’s get serious” – A lot of Tottenham Hotspur fans are backing Erik Lamela to have a massive season for Spurs this year.
Lamela arrived in England six years ago – and, though, he initially struggled, he has developed into a quality player.
So far, in pre-season, the Argentine has impressed scoring two goals and turning in several solid performances.
Lamela has a superb record for Tottenham in pre-season – but he has never transferred this into league form.
He could replace Christian Eriksen who has expressed his desire to leave – and a lot of Tottenham fans want him gone.
They are, however, pleased to see Lamela performing well – and many are expecting big things from the 27-year-old.
