I'm not sure are you? Lamela has played against Arsenal so far so clearly a much more difficult game than Norwich Swansea or Sunderland. The point is that Tottenham have a greater squad depth than us and are able to adapt to play a different way. Our goal drought is from last season as well as this one and I think most would agree that without Shaw and Clyne we really need to come up with something different so we can get a result without them. Not sure why you are obsessed with comparing us to Spurs.
