I rate azaz but not sure he is ready for the Premier league. Saying that he would be better with better players around him.
I often think do boro play well when azaz plays well or does azaz only play well when boro do.
He isnt the type of player to drag you to a win when the team is playing poorly i dont think. His numbers are top notch and he is certainly worth carrying, despite his lack if tackling and tracking back.
I think people not watching us every game and just looking at his numbers obviously wont understand his weaknesses.
He seems to be the fitst name on the teamsheet for Carrick, im sure he knows more than the boro fans who say he is crap eh?
Given room and time to play he certainly thrives, people say he struggles against better sides but the team as a whole does so im not sure that can be used agsinst him.
Hopefully we can keep him to have another go next season assuming we dont fluke the play offs.
Your spot on wondering about his effectiveness in a struggling Premier league side
Selling players like Azazz is a false economy, when one goes we go back to square one and remain just as far from the Premiership.
