Papa Lazarou
Living in a De Zerbi wonderland
From another thread - my thoughts
I like him - he's in the mould that suits our style - good touch, good passer, skillful. Will score loads when we learn to cross better.
His first touch and control is very good.
His link up play is very sharp and incisive.
He wins a lot of headers (and some free kicks).
Despite his link up play he's always in the box waiting for decent delivery - which will come once our wingers remember to beat the 1st man
The only clear chances he had were the free header (back post) in the 1st half that the defender blocked with his hand & the flicked backheel in the 2nd that the keeper was lucky it went right to his feet... perhaps the snap shot from the attack where Vicente weaved through the Blackburn defence 2nd half, that he hit well enough, but straight at the keeper.
