Lucas Moura
Lucas Rodrigues Moura da Silva (born 13 August 1992), known as Lucas Moura (Brazilian Portuguese: [ˈlukas ˈmowɾɐ]), is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a right winger for Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur and the Brazil national team. Moura started his professional career at São Paulo where he became one of the best players in the Campeonato Paulista. His pace and dribbling skills garnered attention from numerous European clubs, eventually earning him a transfer to French side Paris Saint-Germain. After spending five years at the club, Moura was then signed by English side Tottenham Hotspur. He was involved in the side reaching their first ever UEFA Champions League final, scoring a historic hat-trick in the second leg of the semi-final of the competition to help Spurs advance. Moura made his senior international debut for Brazil in 2011 and has since earned over 30 caps, representing the nation at two editions of the Copa América, the 2012 Olympics (where he won a silver medal), and the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup, winning the latter title.

It was typical of Antonio Conte’s demanding approach to management that he was in no mood to heap praise on Lucas Moura after the Brazilian scored one of the finest goals of the season last month. Lucas had surged past three Norwich City players, cut onto his right foot and lashed the ball into the top corner from 25 yards, yet Conte offered him no time to bask in the glory of the moment.

Harry Kane and Lucas Moura bail out desperately poor Tottenham against Morecambe

Earlier this week Antonio Conte described every Tottenham Hotspur game as a “struggle”, and for long spells this was up there with the worst of them under his tenure or the reign of Nuno Espirito Santo before him. Unimaginative, disinterested and sloppy, Tottenham were desperately poor for much of this meeting with League One side Morecambe, who took the lead in north London and held onto it for more than 40 minutes.

Fantasy Premier League tips gameweek 20: Lucas Moura, Diogo Jota, James Maddison and more

James MaddisonMaddison is simply the most in-form player in the league right now. After inspiring a Leicester comeback that was ultimately in vain at the Etihad on Boxing Day, he has now scored 53 points in his last five outings, with four goals and five assists to his name, and they have not all been the type of low-percentage plays we have come to expect in the past.His fixture, at home to Liverpool, is a problem but then Jurgen Klopp’s title challengers are hardly an impenetrable defence.
