“Outlived His Usefulness” – Has The Tide Finally Turned On This Divisive Player?

By Joe Fish -

Want to start an argument between two Tottenham fans?

Mention the name Erik Lamela.

The Argentine has been the ultimate figure of division in his time at Spurs. He is always a trier and seasonally puts together short runs of productive offensive output, only for another injury to waylay him for a few months.

When he comes back, you wait for him to pick up where he left off, but the quality isn’t there when we need it, even if the energy and enthusiasm is.

It looks as though now, approaching the end of his eighth season with the club, that fan opinion has finally turned on the Mauricio Pochettino favourite, if the responses to this tweet from COYS.com are anything to go by at least…

Of all the above tweets it is the one from Rog_THFC which hits closest to my opinion. Lamela has outlived his usefulness at Spurs for a few seasons now.

I know the song says to take him with you everywhere you go, but Spurs should not be taking Lamela into their squad for the 2020-21 season.

Just heard Lamela injured his hips playing FIFA 20, he’s out for three months.
