Tottenham Hotspur fans have called for Lucas Moura to be given a rare start against Newcastle United tomorrow evening.

Tottenham, all of a sudden, have a battle on their hands to claim a top four spot.

Spurs take on Newcastle tomorrow knowing that they must win their remaining two fixtures to be guaranteed of Champions League football next term.

And Tottenham fans are urging Mauricio Pochettino to be brave and pick Moura to start.

Moura joined Tottenham in January, but has been given just one Premier League start since arriving.

The Brazilian has shown signs of promise in substitute appearances, and Spurs fans now think it is time for Pochettino to back the rapid winger to make an impact from the off.

Lucas Moura #7 of Paris Saint-Germain is pursued by Moustapha Seck #27 of AS Roma during the second half at Comerica Park on July 19, 2017 in Detroit, Michigan.

Tottenham’s attack has not looked as threatening in recent weeks, with the Lilywhites picking up just one win in their last four outings.

And Moura’s freshness could be the spark that Spurs need to get them back to their best.
