Achraf Lazaar leaves NUFC by mutual consent

Hope it's a permanent move to get some beans in the tin 👉

Hopefully Colback next.

Have to feel his hairline might scupper any potential move.

He was a questionable signing for the very start.

He had a sick youtube video though, I was completely sold.

 

Plus he's legit in the pretend football videogame fantasies I play.

 

So this must be one of those "Rafael Benitez knows more about football than I do from FM15" situations.

 

I hate those situations.

What games did he play last year?

Apparently he looked unbelievably shit in the Oxford game, may have been the Birmingham game.

Couple of cup games, that was it I think. IIRC he didn't look too bad in those games, but nowt special either.

Hit the bar against Hull in the cup

Also lost his marker for the hull goal, was caught ball watching.

Shame our useless goalkeeper palmed it right back into the dangerzone

Ta - it's more than I thought.  Wonder if Dummett's injury will hinder any transfer.

I doubt it. He's only out for a few weeks and we have Clark, Manquillo, Haidara, Gamez and (ffs) Colback who could all potentially fill in.

Noone wants him apparently. Returning to Newcastle after being in Italy.

 

 

What a fucking mess.

FFS. Can we not just start punting these fuckers into part-ex deals like on FM pls ?

 

7m + Riviere, Lazaar, Colback, Haidara, Saivet should translate into about £10m.

It'll also translate into us having to subsidise their wages to oooooh about 100k per week

Only time I think I saw him play was against Wolves in the league cup and I thought he was pretty poor.

 

I thought he played well down at Hull.

That was a decent cross he put in where Mitrovic tried to control it, did a spin and fell on his arse.

He was fucking desperate, like.

 

I can see why Rafa goes with Dummett, cos even with all of Paully D's limitations, he looks relatively assured at the art of defending. Lazaar's positioning was all over the shop.

Sure someone on here said Achy L was never a full-back and was mainly a wing-back/winger and seemed an odd fit.

I was at a cup match last season where he started. There wasn't a single thing about him that looked like a left back, he looked like a winger that wasn't great at defending. I can't work out why he plays there.

Aye, this was my thoughts as well. Definitely not a full-back.
