Former Newcastle United striker and popular football pundit Alan Shearer has showered praise on Tottenham Hotspur winger Lamela after yet another fine performance from the Argentine.
The 26-year-old joined Spurs in 2013, and has made over 150 appearances for the north London club. He is a player of vast potential, but somehow hasn’t been able to deliver it on a consistent basis.
Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino has used him wisely after he returned from a long injury lay off. And Lamela is repaying his faith with some fantastic performances this season.
Lamela has impressed so far while coming off the bench.
