To be fair Lazaar could be given a chance, the physicality of the league won't be an issue, which I'm assuming was the issue? Him and dummett, Haidara in times of extreme desperation, let's spend money elsewhere. Unless someone particularly good comes up I don't see a cheap defensive improvement on dummett. His passing decisions can make me despair mind
It won't be Lazaar. He's pretty poor from what I've seen of him. Clueless in terms of positional sense.
Have to say unless we are going nuts spending wise, I think retaining Dummett as back up was ok. Obviously if the budget is massive and we are able to buy quality everywhere including back up then you move forward without him, but I just can't see that being the case. Perhaps the Chinese have said "here's 200m, go and sign a quality squad"
