I have never seen a goal like that like ... I remember harry kewell and ronaldo doing crosses like it ... to generate power and accuracy like that from so far out is amazing...who did he do it for last time?
That's a great bit of diggin' for that clip. Good goal. I'm only pulling the spuds plonkers, Lamela's goal was really special. I do think the keeper should have done better but I suppose it was a minor Greek team after all.
Even now that he's a chav, he'll always have my respect for lobbing a slice of pizza at pizza face Fergie
Lamela is so ****ing left footed, he would rather try something like that rather than using his right foot. He is a special talent and when he shows his real level, he won't be at Spurs for long.
They could get double that, IF he shows his talent on a consistent basis and that's a big IF at the moment. This guy in terms of just pure talent is the real deal. But he has struggled like **** with the physical side of the English game. If he gets better physically than he should go on to become one of the best in the league, and then after that, the big sides will come calling.
Agreed. Alluded to this on another thread. 'IF' he keeps progressing, Barca or Madrid will come knocking/tapping up.
Alex Song has been f**ing brilliant today so far. For all the abuse he got at Arsenal(most of which wasn't his fault) he is a better player than Flamini. He's quicker, stronger, bigger and just as good on the ball. I would take him back. Think he would be an improvement on what we have in that position.
Really think we should be looking to sign one of the Bender brothers or Carvalho for that position. It's such a weak point in our play, I honestly think we'd flourish if we would only address it. Instead of getting turned around and carved open, so that all of our players end up back in our own half, a decent DM would not only offer protection against that, but being able to break up play and win the ball back would enable our attacking players to play further forward more effectively. We'd be able to counter a lot quicker, rather than having to start from our GK / back four all of the time.
