Blimey, on the original account, too.

I could swear you and HRH were obsessed about Lamela.

Battling Erik Lamela

If there was one player who epitomised Tottenham's performance it was Erik Lamela.

The Tottenham head coach loves the 28-year-old because he does everything a Mourinho player should - hassle, harries, bites into tackles, is tactically disciplined and constantly troubles the opposition.

Most of all he's a bit of a git on the pitch, which the Portuguese is always a big fan of.

Lamela's unfortunate injury problems have always meant that the tolerance levels for his performances from the fans are low.

His propensity of keeping hold of the ball just too long at times also frustrates but there's little doubt that you get everything the Argentine has to give every time he's on the pitch.

On Tuesday night, he carved out Tottenham's best chance of the first half with a turn and shot that was saved and then he was there late on to fire home the all-important equaliser.

He did it all with a boot problem as well, wearing different coloured ones on either foot.

"I have a problem in my right foot and they are making a new boot for me, Adidas," Lamela said after the game.

"The new boots should arrive tomorrow, so at the moment I am having to play like this."

Mourinho only had one word to describe Lamela after the game.

"Amazing. Coco amazing. I can not play him Thursday but amazing performance," the Spurs boss told football.london. "You speak about Coco and I understand why."

Lamela loves Tottenham Hotspur. He knows the club have been patient with him through some tough years, not least that 13-month injury absence with hip problems, during which he feared he would have to give up the game he adores.

Every time he goes on the pitch you can see he's making up for lost time and ensuring he gives everything because he's been shown how everything can be taken away from him.

With the prospect of the Bale, Kane and Son attacking trident to come, Lamela is not going to be a regular starter but he's the kind of squad player that successful teams are made up of.

While others might waver in their motivation or commitment, Mourinho knows he can turn to Lamela at any point and he will give everything, even during the periods when his body told him otherwise.

During the last festive period the Argentine was volunteering himself for any substitute appearances he could to help out Mourinho, who was dealing with injuries galore.

Lamela was turning out for the team on matchdays despite having not been able to train during the week, while others were making themselves unavailable, and Mourinho did not forget that.

Now as injury free as he can be, on night like this Lamela proved that he's still got a big part to play for the head coach and Tottenham.

Troy,

I agree with some of that - but not the tactically disciplined bit .

Every time he goes near an opposition player I think he's going to get booked.
