da esoccer bet: Tottenham fans are desperate to see more of Lucas Moura, and they’re wondering why they even signed the Brazilian if he’s not going to play.
da brdice: Lucas Moura left PSG in January after not making a single league start for the French giants this season, but he hasn’t exactly got his wish of more playing time at Tottenham.
When the speedy Brazilian signed, fans were delighted to know they finally had a depth of attacking options, with several players competing for those three spots behind Harry Kane.
The 25 year-old Brazilian has started just once in the league for Spurs though, and showed his class in his brief cameo on Saturday.

Mauricio Pochettino’s side lost 1-0 to West Brom, and no player received more stick for his performance than Erik Lamela, who Lucas replaced in the closing stages.
With many fans feeling Lamela is simply not good enough and concerns growing about Heung-min Son losing his electric form from earlier this year, it does seem strange that Lucas has not played more.
Some fans are wondering if Pochettino even wanted the Brazilian in the first place, while others are bashing the manager for not giving him more chances.
