Tottenham have made two changes to their Champions League squad ahead of a last 16 encounter with Italian champions Juventus.
Erik Lamela was left off the 25-man list for the group stages as he was still recovering from hip surgery.
He has been added to the squad for the knockout rounds, replacing Georges-Kevin N’Koudou, who joined Burnley on loan last month.
New signing Lucas Moura is also on the new list. He replaces Juan Foyth, who made his Champions League debut in the final group game against APOEL at Wembley.
Do you think Pochettino has made the right decisions? Let us know in the comments.
Yes
No brainer. One doesn’t play for us for the rest of the season and we have lots of defensive back up. It’s a bit like asking should we play the game with a ball or a plate
Yes this change makes sense as both players have Championship experience. With the addition of Lucas Moura who is a very good dribbler. Eric Lamela has proven to be very good creater from midfield.
Yep
..abc what could be simpler!
Moura will scare the stripes off Juventus with those genius runs he was born to make..and Lamela will ease back into those Def touch passes he sees. Nkoudou needs end product and Foyth can perfect his trade over the next couple years.
A good opportunity for Lamela to prove himself. Doing it occasionally in cameos is not enough.
