Oh give me a fucking break. It’s not like he’s the only one making vital mistakes. We were 3-0 down after what, 20 mins ffs? The players need to take a good look at themselves and wonder how the fuck they let that happen. It’s a shame the comeback was ruined by a late goal, but I wouldn’t make Lucas the scapegoat.

Ex-Spurs Player Lucas Moura

We do struggle in that regard, in a way that is hard to understand and even harder to defend.
Thanks for the memories Lucas.
You should not have been put in that position today, and did not deserve an ending like this, but time to part ways

Yes and no.
For sure let's not scapegoat any one player for the dross.
After all Moura wasn't on the pitch last Sunday (were any of our players!!).
Nor was Moura on the pitch when we conceded 2 against United.
But neither can the paucity of any player be excused.
But to exoect ant different from player or fans at this stage is also foolhardy.
It's true but so late in the game he had to get rid of it. Everton he comes on and within minutes is sent off. He's served the club well and you can never accuse him of not working hard. But bringing him on was the wrong move but you're right. 2 or 3 down before we turn up is the story of our season.
We are parting ways. Bring him on in added time against Brentford for one final hurrah but that's it for his spurs career
Moura - the man who virtually gave our best cheer in the last 20 years. Let’s cut him a break

He's been dining off that one half of football for like 4 years.
Problem is, the managers have been cutting him a break, to the team's and his own detriment.
And rightfully so!
At any other Club he'd be revered for that night... but typical of us he hasn't been able to come anywhere near his heroics in Amsterdam, let alone match them!
He totally peaked and blew himself out in that half...
Tuns out it WAS a one-off, once in a lifetime performance....
Apart from that hat trick against Huddersfield (when he brought his kids on the pitch) he's literally gone backwards ever since!
Really sad to see...
and what makes it worse is that it looks like my "MOURA, MOURA MOURA, how d'ya like it? How d'ya like it?" song is NEVER catching on now!
He made a mistake, which hardly marks him out from the rest of our defenders on the day.
So obviously a good guy, look at how he has helped out the U21 team without any hint of a complaint and given them at least a chance to stay up. Without him they would already be down.
Our fans can be real arseholes sometimes.

Yeah he’s never been the most gifted but he tried that’s all you can ask for! what happened re Champions League he never, well publicly challenged it just got on with it fair play to him for that and if it he’d played fully fit it could have been a totally different result but hey ho…….he came on cold yesterday out of position and was unfortunate shit happens he wasn’t on from the start and us down 3-0 after 20min two games out of three I think that’s a bigger issue…….

I think that's a separate conversation. No one has, as far as I can see, questioned his attitude or work ethic. The simple fact is that he was never the player we needed him to be, but we've kept him around years after it would have been fair and reasonable to get rid of him
It's perfectly fair that we've now run out of patience.
in any case, he'll be off soon. Thank god!
Moura delivered a Spurs CL Final.
Moura prevented a famous spurs comeback at Anfield.
In the end, do the math. Plus Moura probably shouldn't be playing in the first place granted that back-pass was diabolical. Lol

Feel so bad for moura. It was a terrible mistake but he is a living legend for that miracle in the champions league. He is leaving but anyone critising him will have me to deal with. He gave us one of the best memories of our lives. It is such a shame he has not kicked on and become the player I thought he would be. The Premier league is just not cut out for him but he is still adored. Moura will leave a Spurs legend and he should be proud of that.
Incredible memories of Amsterdam.
Bet you were there in the red light district with a few ladies of the night after the game.
However.
He’s also a bit shit. Like a smaller Brazilian version of Bobby Zamora.
Generally been a disappointment. I don't hate him. Good in the air for his size. Too many wrong decisions when running with the ball.
It was a terrible mistake against Liverpool but I judge him overall, not on that.
