Two assists in any Premier League game is worth a big thank-you. Spurs had been dull as ditch-water and Lucas Moura was a welcome antidote.
You’re unlikely to see a better-headed goal in your life. Technically superb and bubbling over with determination.
The Brazilian’s passing accuracy was 84%, which is an increase on his current mean average in all competitions, of 81.3%.
Two successful dribbles (and still some terrible decision-making).
5 touches on the Palace penalty area.
More, please.
Aye Sonny was 22 million.. He’s valued at 72 million now… One of Hitchens rare successes.
Uptick
Moura has the talent but is hit and miss, last night he produced proving what he is capable of…more Lucas please.
In terms of end product I am with Sonny as being more consistent. He offers more of a threat than Moura and delivers more often too.
I actually think Lucas is more consistent and Sonny is the more inconsistent player.
Bemusing to watch him point out the obvious, that our defenders needed to cover! With his other hand I am surprised Sissoko didn’t point at his arm, but Mane didn’t need another clue as to what to do!
Moura has always flattered to deceive. There cannot be many Ch Lg semi finalists who have a hat trick in their locker, but that shows the inconsistency of the man.
He has pace to burn and can score good goals, so if Conte can get more out of him on a regular basis we will all be happy. More of this Lucas, especially against the big teams.
Two assists and a goal which showed real hunger. That’s what he is paid to do.
So fair play to him, I’m not his biggest fan, I can’t fault his effort but not enough end product, but if he can play with more consistency I’ll join the Moura fan club.
You missed the high point of his career at Spurs, conceding a penalty in the first few minutes of the Champions League Final.
In a weird way I miss watching the ball clank off Sissoko’s shinguards and shots fired into Row Z.
No one in the history of Spurs will out do Sissoko. $30M. Lucas has some talent. 🤣🤣
Wasn’t Son around £20m?
25 million.
If Conte can get Lucas doing this more consistently then we have a player on our hands. He’s been on form this season for sure, and is getting better. Best £20m we ever spent.
