According to our recent poll, a huge majority of Tottenham fans want Erik Lamela to come in to the starting XI to replace Moussa Sissoko against West Ham.

Spurs have been hit by somewhat of an injury crisis in recent weeks and Mauricio Pochettino recently hinted in his press conference that players returning such as Mousa Dembele and Christian Eriksen would not be rushed back into the side.

If the Argentine boss goes with a 4-4-2 as he did in the 1-0 win over Cardiff then it could be between Lamela and Frenchman Sissoko for the starting spot. Sissoko started the game against the Welsh side but his time at Spurs has never taken off since his ill-fated £30m move from Newcastle in 2016.

91 per cent of those Spurs fans that answered our poll wanted Lamela to start. The 26-year-old has made four appearances in the Premier League so far this season, but all have come from the bench and he is yet to start a game. Check out the full results of the poll below.
