Loads of Tottenham Hotspur supporters have flocked to footage of Lucas Moura this week, and the reaction has been divisive, to say the least.
Spurs’ official Twitter account posted a highlights reel of the Brazillian’s 2019/20 campaign so far ahead of our return on Friday evening, acompanying it was the caption – “Finishing. Flair. Finesse.”
Finishing. Flair. Finesse.

The 27-year-old has provided seven goals and three assists in 39 appearances this campaign, via Transfermarkt, and is arguably Jose Mourinho’s first name on the team sheet having started the last nine league outings.
Of course, the winger will always be remembered for his emphatic effort against Ajax last season, bagging a hat-trick to see us into the Champions League final.
One word to describe Lucas Moura?
Legend
Overrated
Underrated
Fraud
But despite what should be legendary status on his part, plenty in north London are torn over his talents.
Some believe he’s a bit of a “fraud” whilst others claim that he’s one of the most underrated players in the Premier League.
Moura has seen his value decrease in recent times, going from a career-high £36m to £28.8m on Transfermarkt.
Here’s the word from our fanbase…

Why are we looking back at a guy who has 2 goals in his last 19 games and no goals in his last 13 league games? Genuinely mind boggling https://t.co/hZISs0Flbp

Lucas has everything to be a top player but lacks the consistancy to actually become one. Amsterdam night are few
