Why am I thinking that statement would look more realistic written in crayon?
Nice little video here explains what type of player he is. It's not just a YouTube compilation. He's a better player than you think. Watch it mate you might learn something
I think a lot of people don’t know how bad that hip injury was. Most players at this level would not have been able to continue their careers after having two major hip operations and being out for a year+, I give him a lot of credit for even coming back at all.
It’s clear that the hip issue has made him susceptible to muscle strains but he always plays with maximum intensity and tenacity when he is on the pitch, injuries can happen to any player but at least Lamela has played with a fighting spirit from day one. For that reason I will always be happy to have him in the squad, if the right transfer opportunity arrives for him then we should take it, but I think you always need players in your squad with his type of character. He is always ready for battle no matter his condition and if everyone in our squad had his attitude we would never lose a game.
He’s a nothing player, mate - no YouTube will ever change my opinion that, sorry
Fix that for you, sonny boy
It's these shit statements that get on my nerves "a nothing player"
An academy player gone all the way to a champions league final after taking over from a broken wanyama and finished dembele, he held his own without much help at all.
A nothing player...
What a shit statement.
Finally.
Great video which explains a lot of the subtleness to his game. He’s very much a continental DM and I think a lot of us Brits aren’t used to seeing one not just crashing into people the entire time.
Think the video is spot on with his slight ‘imposter syndrome’, he does appear to act like he’s just won a golden ticket to play for Spurs. In a way, it’s super endearing.
Perhaps his range of passing isn’t as vast as the video suggests, but hey, how many Pirlo’s are there out there?
He’s still only 24. Most top level deep lying playmakers don’t really flourish until their late 20s.
Not sure where to put this
The Daily Mail accusing us of covering up covid cases in our squad? They better have their lawyers ready.
Then how much ‘should’ we offer Roma?
I’m not going to deny that in general we start off by lowballing for our targets, but I can’t see how in this case 50m as a first offer isn’t a decent bid.
I agree he's still learning his game. He's isn't the best and can still improve but a good player nonetheless
It's important to remember we're not obliged to release names.... Just like we didn't when one of our fringe players tested positive just as we were coming out of lockdown.
He hasn’t held ANYTHING in his ownIt's these shit statements that get on my nerves "a nothing player"

In fact - our slide down the table coincided with his emergence as a starting CM
Don't forget, just accept whatever is offered for the players we don't want...JuSt PaY wHaTeVeR iT tAkEs!
ENIC lawyer at the ready!
He’s a brilliant player, but Jose seems pretty set on this asymmetrical back three, so I’m not sure how he’d fit in an attacking LB.
I think that Zaniolo will remain in Rome. The new president cannot sell the finest piece
He could be like a back-up for Doherty really or they could play 3-4-2-1 with Reguilon and Doherty being wing-backs.
Also if Doherty needs rest or is injured. Reguilon plays at LB then Tanganga RB, lets say. When we attack Reguilon goes wing-back and Tanganga drops to back 3. This signing i think just would make our full-back signings done and it would have enough depth, to start the season.
So he hasn't held his own in any games that you have seen?
I think our slide is more to do with poor recruitment.
