by the levels of delusion, its clear...you are a gooner
By levels of ambition it's clear you're a Spammer. Salah, Sane, Mharez and Malcom are players directly comparable with Lamela and they are levels above him and the type of player we need to improve us.
An FA Cup goal against a half arsed Swansea isn't going to change mind about him. He's a squad player but not the quality we need to close the gap to City.

He's only recently back from injury, so we don't really know what his top level is. He just turned 26 this month. His passing and his pressing, his effort, control and technical ability, are all top notch. The question is whether he can reach the same heights as the other players you mention which means being more dominant, clinical, scoring more goals. If he can't then I agree that we may benefit from upgrading but it's hard to get the level of player you're listing, especially if they aren't going to start each week, which of course Lamela often doesn't.
Actually think he looks a better player now than before the injury. That bionic hip is doing wonders He's ruthless. Matured a lot.
Long passing is not an important attribute for an attacking midfielder. fyi.
A deep lying playmaker, yes. Toby Alderweireld yes. A player who's focus is the final 3rd of the pitch? Long passes is a nothing criticism. Like saying Rose has shit finishing. Something he rarely utilises.
Trying to find angles to attack our players is not a good look.
But Eriksen, one of the players he competes with for a place, has got that in his locker, plus a better shooting ability, which makes him more effective in different areas of the pitch and is the reason why Eriksen has always been ahead of him. Dele has and will always be ahead of him because of the goals he scores, and he matches or betters him for assists. Son has gone to a different level, and Lamela will never match his goals, his pace, ability to take on people etc.
He may start against Chelsea because of Kane's injury but it will be back to the subs bench after that. I'm told I'm wrong about everything, though I said he wouldn't start against Huddersfield, Juve or Bournemouth and he didn't, because he didn't perform against Palace and hasn't performed in any of the 3 (?) PL games he's started. Yet some people want him back ahead of Dele or Son on the back of an FA Cup game against a team who didn't really turn up.
But that's over 5 yrs which = 88.8 per year.If you look at Lamela’s stats you see how important he is to us - 444 pages!
5 years since signed....how many months actual playing I wonder?There's limited room for improvement at his age. He's not going to suddenly get any faster. His short passing is good but his long passing isn't. One of his biggest problems is his poor centre of gravity. He's top heavy or something, the amount of times he falls backwards when shooting is ridiculous. And it inhibits his ability to change direction quickly.
It's been the same for 5 years. We're perpetually waiting for a player to live up to his supposed potential. I just don't think the potential has ever been there.
Malcom would be an upgrade and Lamela himself is good enough to be the main man somewhere else, but at best he's a back up to Dele or Eriksen if he stays here.
If he stays! I'm disappointed in you NW1. You assured us he was leaving, now you've even relented on that. Now you're stuck on he won't be a regular starter. What happens if he becomes a regular? You move the goalposts to 'he will never score as many as Kane'. What a bizarre 'fan' you areat best he's a back up to Dele or Eriksen if he stays here
With the exception of Eriksen, we have attacking positions that need competition and rotation. Son, Dele, Lamela, and Lucas Moura all offer different things, and all possess strengths that the others don’t.
Lamela is a valuable asset to have. Son and Dele are both capable of being anonymous in games. Lamela is rarely anonymous (often making his presence felt through his defensive qualities at the very least), but offers less goals and assists than the former two. Moura is, in my opinion, a brilliant signing that offers guile, goals, and assists, but he’s obviously not had time to show his worth.
Lamela is a great option to have as part of our attacking squad. If we had a Salah-type option it would mean relegating one of Son or Dele to the bench indefinitely anyway. As a collective I think they are more valuable to us than one outstanding player, and it adds depth and competition.
Eriksen is a guaranteed starter, but the other attacking midfielder positions are up for grabs thanks to the qualities of Lamela and Moura, and surely that’s a good thing?
