I liked Erik Lamela before it was cool

Back in training according to photos on the official site. Along with Winks.

Both of them add great depth to our squad which currently feels a bit shallow.

Like two new signings after the transfer window has slammed shut on Levy's fingers.

Made a big difference. I still can't get over that turn of pace. I honestly can't remember seeing him show that amount of it.

 

[Baleforce]

Every single member of the Fulham squad was chasing him through the middle, all 22 of them.

 

[DubaiSpur]

That run was just....supremely *menacing*.

Watching him gain pace, ruthlessly cutting through half the Fulham squad and carrying it across the entire pitch - that was beautiful to watch, and it must have been terrifying for Fulham to watch.

I agree with @Cochise - I did not expect him to be that rapid. I wonder if he actually gained a yard of pace over the summer?

By far our most under appreciated.

Not bad for a team with no depth to have Son missing and his replacement score, and then bring Lamela and Dembele off the bench. With no Wanyama or Danny Rose involved yet either.

That was a superb assist this afternoon

What a driving run through the middle. Love how well he can dribble with his head up looking to make through balls.

His pass was very well-timed for Kane's goal, not much more to say that hasn't already been said about him splitting Fulham.

 

[awesome dawson]

Timing of that pass for Kane

Hopefully the hip problem is now a thing of the past and we’ll be seeing lots more surging runs like this from Lamela this season

He looks like he’s built himself up a bit, more powerful overall and it showed in his run.

Looked determined and confident. Not at all like a player that hasn't played competitive football for three months and had his preseason interrupted by injury.

Definitely good news for him and us. The pressure is on with Son's performances last season and Moura now settled in. But Lamela offers something a bit different, will be interesting to see if he can step it up another level competing for regular starts.

Think his injury and subsequent journey to recovery may have added an extra level of determination to him - hope he stays injury free now as he can be an important part of the squad and along with Moura and Son gives us fantastic options in attack.

I would like to see him in the starting line-up at Old Trafford next week, as one of the three behind Kane. Would be difficult to accept for Moura perhaps, but we've seen Poch use him in big games very regularly - Juve away comes to mind - and I think he offers so much more to our overall play.

He absolutely loves Spurs and being in England too
