A thread on one of the most underappreciated fullbacks in world football. I present to you, Noussair Mazraoui! šŸ‡²šŸ‡¦šŸ”„
Noussair Mazraoui is a 23 year old šŸ‡²šŸ‡¦ international that plays as a right back for AFC Ajax.
Mazraoui is great in a 1 on 1 battle and has great stamina too. As a fullback in a free flowing Ajax side The šŸ‡²šŸ‡¦ int. is tasked with getting forward alot and is quite good at positioning himself in the second third to help his team maintain good spacing and passing options.
Nous is also very comfortable charging high and wide on the right when the ball is being rotated. The fullback is also very good at coming inside and linking up patterns of play centrally. This is one of his best attributes seeing he made his debut as a #8 for AFC Ajax.
Noussair recently caught the eye of alot of people with one of the best performances at anfield for a full-back. Had the likes of ManĆ©,Salah and Jota completely on lock. Take a look at this! šŸ‘€
Nous can also dribble into space with the ball out wide and can send in whipping crosses at a pretty decent rate.
Ziyech and De Ligt (out of picture) play a one-two pass with Mazraoui as the third man. Since Vitesse are playing deep, Mazraoui’s great positioning between the vertical lines allows him to receive a simple pass with space to turn and dribble.
Noussair’s presence of mind allows him to read the transition of play and make smart blocks and interceptions in front of his defence line. Nous has attempted 18 tackles in the Eredivisie and 15 were successful wich sits at about 83% of tackle success.

Impressive šŸ‘šŸ½
Now onto the strengths: Mazraoui possesses the likes of pace,passing,defending,good in 1v1’s,has a very high IQ on how to play football,dribbling andholding on to the ball. As you can see he is a very complete RB bar G/A Mazraoui is a very complete RB and will only get better!šŸ‘€
Now onto the most comparable player to Mazraoui. For me Dani Alves is very comparable with Nous. Not only due to his attributes but also the eye test,once i see Mazraoui play i instantly think of Dani Alves in my mind. Alves was a very smart RB and you can see that in Nous too!
Now i will tell you wich club should seriously get Mazraoui in the summer. For me there is one club in particular that should seriously get Mazraoui but i doubt they will because their board is awful,it’s Arsenal. They have alot of problem’s in defence and RB is one of them.
Anyway if Mazraoui does not get picked up by Arsenal there is no worries for him because clubs like PSG,Tottenham,Juventus,Bayern etc will all most likely be looking for a RB in the market and if they would i’d suggest them to get Noussair,one of the most underrated ones ITW! šŸ‘€
