Riyad Mahrez

That's because 40% of the forum are thick as fuck.

And the other 60% are City fans ;)

Adapting means playing Delph at LB
Adapting is Sterling being our top goal scorer and turning into a genuine CF threat
Adapting is playing asymmetrically to account for Delph’s skill set as a central midfielder and KDBs skill set as a RW
Adapting is Fernandinho seamlessly slipping between the role of CB in a back three, Ball Winning Midfielder, Box to box midfielder and Regista in one match.
Adapting is Aguero transitioning from one of the worlds best poachers to one of the worlds best adaptable, role switching centre forwards.

This team is magnificently fluid, adaptable and tactically developed. But we still need a specialist to do a job that needs doing if we’re going to seriously compete with the best clubs in the world in multiple competitions.

You were doing well until that, Mahrez can also adapt to many of those roles, hence our significant interest in him.

It won't because the majority on here won't be at the game, so will still be flapping on here.

Well at least those of us at the game won't be so exposed to it.

 

[Skip Donoghue]

Okay so I said most of this about 70 pages back but apparently about 40% of the forum still don’t get it.

We have no fucking backup wingers
Bernado is not a fucking winger
Diaz is 18 and not a fucking winger
Foden is 17 and not a fucking winger
We have TWO fucking senior players for our attacking THREE fucking positions
Mahrez is the best available fucking winger in the Premier League
Some similar level fucking wingers are older and/or unavailable
Other similar fucking wingers are younger and/or inexperienced
Mahrez has won the fucking Premier League with fucking Leicester and got the fucking POTY
We are in 4 fucking competitions. That is potentially 27 fucking matches.
People want to play for 6 fucking weeks with ONE fucking winger.

Fucking bang on.....fucking :)

8 out of 10 rags eat dog shit.. 80%

I'm surprised that percentage isn't higher.

 

[Damien10]

And for the record I do rate Mahrez, this is not me bashing the guy.

 

[cleavers]

Well at least those of us at the game won't be so exposed to it.

True, and it also means that I'll not be moderating the shite for the best part of 24 hours, by which time it will be long over :)

Unfortunately I think at least half of the 40% are among our own. Hopefully Riyad (if he comes) will have less to do to convince them than Raheem has had to do, despite Raz proving himself time and time and time again

Presumably the rest just aren't eating

Fake news! It's at least 9.8 out of 10.

I didn’t say he wasn’t adaptable. But he IS a specialist in a position we desperately need.

I discovered chicken jalfrezi in Leicester about 30 years ago. Not really related to the Mahrez discussion, but any talk of Leicester reminds me of that.

And his blonde hair looks rubbish.

This...

Others were dancing around the subject, but you had the balls to say it!!!!

 

[Patrick keegan kid]

Been working tonight so I apologise if already posted....
Mahrez is the best player for Leicester for a generation (not mine but Leicester fans opinion)
His stats look ordinary as he didn’t want to be their for the first two months of the season.(Leicester fans)
Apparently he is also in outstanding physical shape...

Get him in

The hair might be a deal breaker.

 

[Damien10]

If the club are certain they need a winger now, I expect a bid to go in for another player tomorrow. Should be a fun day.

 

[burning blue soul]

The hair might be a deal breaker.

It's aways the hairstylists terms which are the hardest to negotiate Pamela!!!

 

[Dax777]

I agree with a lot of what you say but you're living in cuckoo land if you think you're going to get £100 million for Mahrez in the summer.

24 months left on his contract, openly wants out of the club and has done for 2 years and no current bidding war for him.

Also, to state that £55 million is an insult is also laughable. Ignore the fees that Coutinho, Dembele and Neymar have moved for, they are not the norm. The likes of Aubamryang, Lacazette and Bernardo prices are more comparable and Mahrez is valued in that bracket.

No, its not desperate, sorry.

 

[silva_shoelaces]

No, its not desperate, sorry.

if Aguero gets injured in the next match (touching all the wood, praying to all the Gods and taking a spiritual healing class), do you still think we have enough firepower without a player of Mahrez’s quality?
