Erik Lamela

[africanspur]

Strange that people were willing to write off a young player who only made his 4th or 5th PL start yesterday.

He's still got a long way to go but starting to show his talent a bit more though. I hope he carries on, he can be an outstanding player.

Deflection?

 

[cesc's_mullet]

Amazing goal

 

[peterstorey]

One-footed shite.

Classic Pete.

 

[limerickcitykid]

And then I was like... u wot m8?

 

[peterstorey]

You'll not see Messi doing bollox like that - leave it in the circus ring.

Score goals?

One-footed shite.

What a finish. Although he'd be getting some stick for wasting the opportunity if he fecked that up.

I remember Rojo tried a few crosses like that during WC. Is there any chances for injury? Looks fancy, but I would rather avoid doing that.

 

[duffer]

I'm with Pete on this one.

It annoys me when Hazard crosses the ball like that, you've got two feet, use them.

 

[Joemo]

That's a bit more like it.

 

[Gio]

Nice finish, but really it's self-indulgent shite.

Why would the rabona cause injury?!

It was a question.

lmfao the reactions on here.

 

[Donut]

Deflection?

Looks like it.

 

[Rykker_4united]

Pochettino's great. He's a big club manager just waiting to happen.

 

[Pogue Mahone]

One-footed shite.

Yup.

Use your right foot, you twat. A trick that is the definition of pointless.

 

[Bwuk]

Don't see the problem. Took everyone by surprise and scored it...

 

[Marcosdeto]

Yup.

Use your right foot, you twat. A trick that is the definition of pointless.

come on mate, a goal is a goal is a goal is a goal

 

[Red Shorts]

That was insane. We would be going mental if it were one of our players scoring a goal like that.

 

[Trizy]

Hopefully he'll take massive confidence from this and go on and enjoy his football, he's unbelievably talented and could easily become world class IMO.

 

[peterstorey]

Why would the rabona cause injury?!

If someone tackled you when you're in such an awkward position with your striking foot bent behind your standing foot you're likely to be forked.

 

[Dante]

I'm with all the grumpy, old men in this thread. It's a stupid risk to take because you're scared to use your right foot.

 

[Patchbeard]

Yup.

Use your right foot, you twat. A trick that is the definition of pointless.

Plenty of players would struggle to score from outside the box on their wrong foot, let alone Lamela who's right foot is fecking atrocious. When you're left foot's that good, may as well use it.

 

[SteveW]

Pete's right. Shooting like that just shows he's uncomfortable with his right foot which is kinda pathetic for a professional footballer in my opinion. A stupid trick done to hide a weakness worked once. Big deal!

 

[Relevated]

wow what a patheic loser, he is so crap that he cant use his other foot? How rubbish is he to do a crazy, amazing skill like that? He is very dumb.

 

[XdanielredX]

If it didn't go in though...

Ructions..

 

[Dante]

It's a high skill move on FIFA or something, so it must be cool.

 

[Sied]

It was a question.

Oh. Well then I wouldn't have thought so. Unless maybe if you're tackled awkwardly in the process like @peterstorey said. I doubt you'd go for the rabona if someone was about to crunch you though.

 

[SteveW]

wow what a patheic loser, he is so crap that he cant use his other foot? How rubbish is he to do a crazy, amazing skill like that? He is very dumb.

Worked once. Bit of practice with his right foot and he would have had to try crazy, amazing skill to score a goal. He was 20 yards out middle of the goal.

 

[Nickosaur]

Miserable cnut bags! Incredible goal.

 

[Rykker_4united]

I agree with most in this thread! Players should do nothing but simply pass, toe punt and work on only efficiency and a classical approach to the game!

 

[SteveW]

Rabonas are generally pointless. Fine if your 5 nil up but if you're doing it in a close game your either an idiot or trying not to use a bad weaker foot.

 

[Relevated]

Just admit it Steve, you tried really hard to pull off a rabona during a match but you just fell on your arse.
