    I liked Erik Lamela before it was cool

    I'm gonna provide the following evidence to show Townsend's superior technical ability to strike a football. The first minute or so shows five Andros Townsend goals, and I am saying that Lamela does not have the technical ability to score four out five of them, because Townsend either hits...

    I liked Erik Lamela before it was cool

    A shot outside the area I'm referring to. I've never seen Lamela hit through a football.

    I liked Erik Lamela before it was cool

    No, it was downright bad management from Poch to start Lamela - he'd been woeful in a number of games and Townsend came in and did well against Saudi Sportswashing Machine - and he was still full of running at the end of that game and Lamela was anonymous in the 2nd half yesterday.

    I liked Erik Lamela before it was cool

    1) It wasn't a fluke no, but Lamela only has one type of shot, a medium paced curler with his left instep. Townsend has a greater variety to his shot and can use his right as well - go on Youtube if you don't believe me. Are we going to be equal and talk about all of Lamela's shots that have...

    I liked Erik Lamela before it was cool

    No, I think Townsend earned a start yesterday after a good game against Saudi Sportswashing Machine, he may or may not have scored (I'm pretty certain Townsend has scored more goals outside the area in his career) but he would definitely have been more of a threat in wide areas and we'd have seen more crosses...

    I liked Erik Lamela before it was cool

    It all about opinion GrimsbyYid, you don't seem to rate any of our young English players that have come through ranks, such as Kane, Mason or Townsend. I rate all of them and talk them up a lot on here. I compared Kane to Alan Gilzean over a year ago on here and was roundly pilloried for it, but...

    Anyone remember that Bale chap?

    I'm totally ambivalent to them, I prefer them to lose as much as possible but there isn't any semblance left of the club I used to know and have negative feelings for. Just a rich man's toy of club.

    Anyone remember that Bale chap?

    I kind of hope he comes back to the Premier League, suits him better and brings the best out of him. They're forever moaning about him in Madrid. I wouldn't begrudge him going to Man Utd or Chelsea personally.

    I liked Erik Lamela before it was cool

    In that goal all Lamela had to do was make any sort of contact, what he cannot seem to do is be able to make a QUALITY contact, particularly when at speed. All he has to do to prove me wrong is whip a cross in on his right, instead of what he has been doing, which is: 1) Avoiding being a...

    I liked Erik Lamela before it was cool

    Football is very much like Quantum Mechanics. The universe permits the footballer to use either his left foot or right foot as he sees fit. But occasionally an episode of "decoherence" occurs, when the universe enforces the specific use of either the left foot or the right foot. Name one top...

    I liked Erik Lamela before it was cool

    And how many times is he gonna do that a season, 3 maybe, compared to how many assists a player with a decent right foot could provide. I think a lot of this debate is down to those who have played football and those that haven't. I would urge the latter to go in their gardens with a ball and...

    I liked Erik Lamela before it was cool

    It looked right footed on the stream I was watching but if you saw it close up then fair enough, and it does seem more consistent with what he tends to do, fine if it works out, as it should have done today or against Cardiff for Paulinho's goal last season, but holding on to the ball so he can...

    I liked Erik Lamela before it was cool

    I'm positive about his ability to cut inside and score a goal but it's blatantly clear to me he simply doesn't possess the ability to perform a cross with his weak foot to same standard that, say, Chadli, did for the Kane's goal. The cross he, Lamela, did for Kane was more of pass as it was just...

    Match ratings - Burnley - Poll added to opening post

    Re: Ratings vs Burnley All sixes and sevens for me. No-one was brilliant and no-one was terrible.

    I liked Erik Lamela before it was cool

    I think that's an accurate appraisal of his performance - showed what he can do cutting inside from the right, but didn't put a poor left back under nearly enough pressure and only managed to put a decent cross in once, which should have been a goal - there were many occasions he could taken on...

    *** Tottenham Hotspur vs. Burnley OMT ***

    I think Lamela looked like he was trying to shift it on to his left as he usually does then caught Kane off guard by putting it in with his right, still should have scored though.

    My internet went down in shock the moment Lamela scored, well done the lad, do him the world of confidence.

    Great work all around there from Kane, Eriksen and Chadli.
