​Lamela happy fighting for Tottenham place

Erik Lamela has no issues with continuing to fight for his place in the Tottenham team.

Lamela has been in very good form this season. And he has started four of the last five games for the club.

But he knows that when the likes of Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli are fully fit, he will have a harder time nailing down a spot.

Lamela has four goals and an assist in four Premier League starts and four substitute appearances.

"I am trying to play and enjoy my game," Lamela said to the Evening Standard.

"I believe that Christian and Dele they are top players so I think, of course we are competing for a place but we are playing altogether to try and help the team to win."
