I wonder how Azpi will fit into this system. He isn't the quickest of guys to be playing in the FB position, and I'm not particularly sure he is suited to that role in a possession style game. Bizarre as he is one of our best players, but one I find most trouble fitting into the team. Don't think he can be a CB at his size, but then again, who knows. I'd prefer him at CB than RB. He can whip the ball in well, but not sure he is suited to building up play from the position. Isn't quick enough and silky enough on the ball for it.

Size-wise he is the same height as Puyol. Obviously Puyol was built like a tank, but Dave could probably get there if required. I think its a natural progression for him.

Might completely lose it if we don't give Azpi a new contract! :middlefinger::rant:

Of course mate. Dont know how its gone this long without a renew

Have our normal 30+ 1 years

And with William/Pedro running out 2020  they wont be getting an extension yet.

AVG and Omeruo run out 2020

Plus of course Eden and shockingly Ampadu. He needs golden handcuffs.

Honestly don't think he was bad, hes still getting back to playing as a right back but I've seen a lot of shit on social media that we need a new RB, 100% incorrect the guy is one of the best in the business. Fair enough he doesn't run 100m in 10 seconds but hes excellent defensively and hes always improving on the ball. The CBs are more an issue for me. Pity hes not 6 ft 2 or 3 because I think if he were that bit taller and more physical he could be adapted to a CB (Although that is based on his role in a back 3, totally different in a back 4 I know).
