'We believe now more than ever' - Lamela ready for Liverpool after injury-hit season

Erik Lamela says he is ready to put an injury-ravaged season behind him and make history with Tottenham by lifting the Champions League trophy in Madrid.

The Argentine has suffered a recurring hamstring injury in the latter part of the campaign, causing him to miss out on the final months of Spurs’ Premier League season.

He also missed the first leg of the team’s sensational Champions League semi-final against Ajax that set up Saturday’s showpiece final with Liverpool, making a brief appearance from the bench as the team recovered from 3-0 down to progress.
