Garth Crooks raves about Tottenham winger Erik Lamela

Popular football pundit Garth Crooks has showered praise on Tottenham winger Erik Lamela following the Argentine’s brilliant performance against West Ham last week.

The 26-year-old has been in good form this season, but it took Mauricio Pochettino this long to actually give him a start in the Premier League.

In his first Premier League start of the season, he was arguably the best player on the pitch for Spurs, and his goal made the difference between the two sides.

Lamela has now scored five goals already for Spurs and has further registered three assists in all competitions.
