    I remember him but not enough of him. Read his wiki page and his time with us was a hard read, sad tbh.

    I'm buzzing to see him now..

    What a dimension we finally have to our play with 2 rapid attacking wingbacks on either side..

    Honestly feel it'll change our game so much. Will give team's a lot more to think about. McGregor won't have to cover as much. We know that tracking back won't be a problem/recovery pace. Also won't be bullied as he's a decent size and looks very tenacious in the challenge..

    It's massive for us in loads of ways..

    Yet again another player who has gone for big money, in their best year's but hasn't hit the heights/fit the system for whatever reason..

    Style of play
    Laxalt is left-footed, physically strong and very versatile.[17] He has described himself by saying that: "My strengths are speed and endurance. I'm a left-footed midfielder who can fit in other positions." He has compared himself to the Inter Milan legend, Álvaro Recoba, who is also a former Uruguayan midfielder

    He's no Victor Wanyama but he's no Willo Flood either.

    All the clips show him relishing the physical challenge, using his body well and not getting pushed about easily.

    Uruguay are a team of dirty * as well, you don't get the amount of caps that he has for them without being able to handle yourself.
