“ Laurent TIZIE is an exceptional playmaker with an excellent close control; he epitomizes the number 10 role. He has got the rare skills of a versatile midfielder playing deep in a defensive role, out wide in attack and further forward in an advanced midfield zone. What makes him particularly stand-out is the fact that he looks comfortable wherever he is made to play, understanding the different duties of each role and displaying tactical intelligence in executing it. While more than capable up ahead, TIZIE is best suited to play a deeper role, where that intelligence is put to full use with his ability to read situations and regain possession in a defensive phase. His control allows him to move the ball forward while retaining possession, dribbling his way past opponents and ever so often losing his marker with a simple turn and touch. When played in a deeper role, he is often free from constant marking, allowing him to flourish with his creative vision to find opponents.
With exceptional balance and agility, TIZIE has the skill to dance away from defenders. He knows how to use his acceleration in bursting away from challenges and beating defenders; in many ways, this composure and understanding sets him apart from his peers. Aside from his top-notch dribbling, he also has the ability to split defences. He has the vision and technical ability to pull off the most challenging of passes, and in his floating role between the lines, Laurent can unlock the most resilient of defences. Even so, TIZIE knows when to keep things simple; his maturity is impressive for his age.
