The Argentine continued his strong recent run with the winner against West Ham, but his manager wants him to deliver on a more regular basis
Mauricio Pochettino commended Erik Lamela for his match-winning display for Tottenham against West Ham and challenged him to find consistency after hitting a purple patch.
Spurs ran out 1-0 victors at the London Stadium thanks to Lamela's neat header at the end of the first half, but it was his all-round performance that pleased Pochettino.
Lamela has had torrid luck with injuries since joining Spurs from Roma in 2013, but Saturday's winner was his 10th time he'd been directly involved in a goal – seven goals and three assists – in his last nine appearances across all competitions.
