FIFA 15: 10 Over-Rated Players Who Need Downgrading
7. Erik Lamela (Tottenham Hotspur) 81
The sale of Gareth Bale and the subsequent buying frenzy it initiated at White Hart Lane was supposed to mark the beginning of Spurs time as real title contenders. However, a turbulent management situation combined with the void left by Bale who saved Spurs hide on many occasions has led to a disappointing season in north London. A player who typifies the 2013/14 season of Tottenham Hotspur is Erik Lamela. Lamela, on whom Spurs set a new transfer fee record of £30m, held so much promise having seemed to be a potent talent in Serie A. In his last season at Roma, Lamela racked up 15-goals in 35-appearances compared to his one goal all season at Spurs. The Argentines 82-finishing and 81-long shots are starting to look a little generous now, no?
