So true. Admittedly I was disappointed to see him come on, I wanted someone else.
Vital goal though, I'm happy to be proven wrong again!

I think he's underrated, he scores goals and is fairly skillful at beating his man. Maybe it's because he lacks pace?
It's because he came in when Bale left and supposedly doesn't do any defensive work.

Thought Chadli's cameo today was excellent. He's been improving this season too, in my opinion. Works more than he used to, gets stuck in, is a bit more direct. Was the difference today, obviously. Well done, Nacer! An unsung hero for us.
Also, how come a lot of commentators say "Nay-ser"? I'm pretty sure his name is pronounced "Nah-ser".

Definitely been improving his work rate this season from what I've seen. Difference from last season is that we have other options that aren't completely Townsend that actually gives him competition for places. If he wants to play he has to put the effort in...
Has seemingly managed to do that whilst not having that impact what he does in front of goal.
Very important player for us. And what a difference it makes to have real quality on the bench. If it's Chadli, Lamela or Son doesn't matter all that much. But real attacking quality to come on with fresh legs towards the end is a real difference from last season.

But he doesn't lack pace, at all.. He's deceptively quick and extremely strong.
Some fans just need to cast blame or have a whinge about something, anything.. Unfortunately Nacer is one of the squad members who gets picked out.
He's a fantastic squad option and underlines the strength in depth we currently enjoy, he has come on leaps and bounds from his days at Twente and I think he'll just keep getting better under Poch.

I disagree, our strongest three behind Kane are Eriksen, Alli and Lamela. Son and Chadli are great options but a little short of the other three.
I agree - clear first choice for me atm but am happy for the others to get time and work their way in to the team

He doesn't have great acceleration but once he gets going he's quick.....and can it up longer

Getting difficult to argue with Chadli's end product. Goals and assists at a wonderful rate, that being combined with more defensive work this season - all of that from a season that's been stopped quite a bit by injury for Chadli...
Thought Pochettino made a good, brave, call by putting Eriksen deeper today against Swansea. Gave us more creativity and attacking power than we probably would have gotten from Mason/Bentaleb. Also opened up space for Son and Lamela to start.
West Ham will be more difficult and perhaps we'll see Mason back in at central midfield. For that game I would say Lamela to start alongside Eriksen and Alli. But to me that's not clear cut at this point.

His workrate off the ball has noticeably gone up of late, which is great to see. Obviously this is something Poch demands of all his players, and there was no denying that he was a little lax with his tracking back before. From the outside it looks like Poch has brought so many of the players up to the next level by focusing on the flaws in their game. Chadli looks to be the next one to step up.
Well done shagger (great name whoever came up with it)

I like him but more as a sub and not a starter. I do agree best three behind Kane at present are Lamela, Alli and Eriksen. Sub in Chadli and Son in that order.

My experience is that english commentators, in general, don't understand/don't want to understand that an foreign atelete´s name should be pronounced in a non-english fashion.
They tend to do quite the opposite IMO and go completely overboard in an attempt to be authentic, especially with Spanish names. Cathorla.

I've never been sure about that. Do you expect French/Italians to put on a faux English accent to pronounce your name? And even then a Michael from London pronounces his own name very differently to a Michael from Saudi Sportswashing Machine. I think you just accept people pronounce it with their on accent. I never liked the Dav-veed thing.
