Completely different player to Gundogan. Not sure what you’re comparing them for?
Both excel in high-tempo games, have excellent vision and can't be arsed to defend.

Good post and well said but I have doubts that we would have space for him in the team.I actually think he would be an immense signing. He's excellent. So good in one v one situations and can craft space through trickery as opposed to relying on pace. He would win us about 5 penalties a season given how close to the opposition box we play.
As for saying he's not a Pep type of player.....neither was Sterling or Sane particularly and neither was De Bruyne or Otamendi. Pep does make a lot more adjustments to his own style than people give him credit for. I genuinely believe we'd be looking at Hazard levels of quality if we signed Mahrez. Honestly rate him that highly. The only question would be getting him to buy into the off the ball side of the game but such is Pep's reputation, I think he could do so without any issues at all. I think the vast majority of players, particularly those who aren't already established as world class players reputationally would have no problem.
I can see him moving inside and taking Coutihno's spotMahrez would be a great signing for any team in the top apart from Liverpool. They've already got some very good options in wide positions and I wouldn't see Mahrez displacing Mane or Salah.
He can play there but he's a patch on Coutinho. He's much better outside on the right than in the middle.I can see him moving inside and taking Coutihno's spot
Your not factoring in the klopp factor, I mean look how well Milner has adapted to CM since he signed for them.He can play there but he's a patch on Coutinho. He's much better outside on the right than in the middle.
