On Thursday, Tottenham Hotspur’s official Twitter account posted a video of Erik Lamela scoring a pretty special goal inside the club’s new stadium.
Granted, there were no defenders to stop him, but the Argentine still managed to pick out the top corner with a fine effort.
The problem, however, is that Lamela has only managed four Premier League goals for Tottenham during the 2018-19 campaign.
There is no question that the 27-year-old is a talent, but an overall scoring record of 29 in 185 games for Tottenham in all competitions is not exactly terrific.
