Erik Lamela has been one player that a few Tottenham fans might have forgotten, given that the Argentine missed a chunk of last season and has not featured for us in this campaign either.
The winger can be brilliant in certain games and not having him in the side might cost us in the upcoming months as we would have to rotate the squad.
Fortunately, it was recently announced that the Argentine had joined the side to train with the rest of the squad and that got a lot of Spurs fans excited. While Lamela will not play a part in the upcoming tie against Bournemouth on Saturday, the 25-year-old could help us in the Champions League.
The Argentine is a tricky winger and he will give us another option in our attack and here are some of the best reactions from Twitter on Lamela’s latest update.
Can't understand the Lamela hate. Good player imo. Excellent pressing. Incisive. Runs at the opposition. Makes clever passes. #THFC #COYS

Cant wait to see Lamela back in the side though I bet? 🙄 https://t.co/UG9gv9DZQg

It's at least as plausible as the idea that Lamela's actually been serving a drugs ban for the past 12 months.
