When it was suggested that Lamela had many of the attributes valued by Mourinho, the Spurs manager said: "I just want to confirm, a good Lamela I love. You are right. He is the kind of player that I like very much.
"The first thing I like about him is he wants to play. He wants to assume responsibility. He never hides. He wants the ball. He's a little bit sometimes chaotic, but it's a positive reason to be chaotic because it's, 'I want to play, I want the ball, if the ball is not arriving to me I have to arrive to the ball'.
"I love Coco. Of course when I arrived, his history of injuries was incredibly negative. Was very, very, very hard. That's the truth.
"In this moment he's fit, but of course a player with his history, he played 90 minutes against West Brom I think [he actually played 74].
"Even more [against Everton], so let's see, but honestly I'm going to ask him 'can you play again from the start' because if he feels he can of course I'm going to play him."

Wish Mourinho had started Lamela more in recent matches. As shows against Everton, Lamela is a big game player.
