Erik Lamela is determined to prove his worth at Tottenham this season.
Lamela has promised White Hart Lane will play host to the 'real' him - so highly rated when starring in Serie A for AS Roma.
"A footballer always feels lonely when he cannot play for whatever reason and I felt very lonely at times last season," he told The Sun.
"But I am getting in good shape and am determined to show Tottenham the real Erik Lamela this season.
"I have recovered from my injuries, we have a new manager and i cannot wait to play.
"I am confident you will see a much better me this season."
