Lucas Moura picked up the Premier League Player of the Month for August, thanks to some incredible displays for Tottenham Hotspur.
The Brazilian scored in our 3-1 win over Fulham and bagged a brace in our 3-0 hammering of Manchester United a week later.
Although we failed to beat Watford last weekend, Moura has done enough to bag the award and was speaking to Spurs TV about his goals at Old Trafford.
🗣️ “I just believed it!”

The former PSG forward claimed that a striker always has to be in the box and scoring at Old Trafford in front of our fans was “amazing.”
Moura was also shown a video clip from a fan in the stands at Old Trafford. Some of the Tottenham faithful were celebrating wildly and the Brazilian added that he would have done the same if he had not been a player.
The forward has been a bright spark for us this season and hopefully, he can bag a few more goals as we look to win a trophy under Mauricio Pochettino.
A number of fans shared their support for the Brazilian and posted responses to the tweet from Spurs.
WONDERFUL SAMBA SPURS HERO

“A striker needs to be in the box all the time” please tell Kane that, he keeps dropping in as a holding midfielder lately 😂
