Thymeleaf send parameter from html to controller

I'm newbie in Thymeleaf. I'm trying to create simple crud application. I'm trying to delete object of Customer class on delete button. How can I set parameter(for example - id) to the method which called deleteUser using Thymeleaf. Here's my controller.

package controllers;

//imports


@Controller
public class WebController extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter {

    @Autowired
    private CustomerDAO customerDAO;

    @Override
    public void addViewControllers(ViewControllerRegistry registry) {
        registry.addViewController("/results").setViewName("results");
    }

    //show all users
    @RequestMapping(value="/users", method=RequestMethod.GET)
    public String contacts(Model model) {
        model.addAttribute("users",customerDAO.findAll());
        return "list";
    }

    //show form
    @RequestMapping(value="/users/add", method=RequestMethod.GET)
    public String showForm(Customer customer) {
        return "form";
    }

    //add user
    @RequestMapping(value="/users/doAdd", method=RequestMethod.POST)
    public String addUser(@RequestParam("firstName") String firstName,
                           @RequestParam("lastName") String lastName,
                           @RequestParam("lastName") String email) {
        customerDAO.save(new Customer(firstName, lastName, email));
        return "redirect:/users";
    }

    //delete user
    @RequestMapping(value="users/doDelete/{id}", method = RequestMethod.POST)
    public String deleteUser (@PathVariable Long id) {
        customerDAO.delete(id);
        return "redirect:/users";
    }
}

Here's my view.

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html xmlns:th="http://www.thymeleaf.org">
<head>
    <title>Getting Started: Serving Web Content</title>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>
</head>
<body>
List of users
<a href="users/add">Add new user</a>
<table>
    <tr>
        <th>Id</th>
        <th>First Name</th>
        <th>Last Name</th>
        <th>Email</th>
        <th>Action</th>
    </tr>
    <tr th:each="user : ${users}">
        <td th:text="${user.id}">Id</td>
        <td th:text="${user.firstName}">First name</td>
        <td th:text="${user.lastName}">Last Name</td>
        <td th:text="${user.email}">Email</td>
        <td>
            <form th:action="@{/users/doDelete/}" th:object="${customer}" method="post">
                <button type="submit">Delete</button>
            </form>
        </td>
    </tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

You do not need form to do this:

<td>
    <a th:href="@{'/users/doDelete/' + ${user.id}}">
        <span>Delete</span>
    </a>
</td>
