Agreed. My biggest frustration with Mahrez is he has the ability to go past players and make things happen in big games, he did it at Leicester numerous times. With us though, I think he just plays to the mood of the game rather than directly impacting it with his actions. By that I mean if we're coasting, then he'll join in with his party tricks and if we're rubbish, he'll go missing. It's frustrating as fuck.

The with Mahrez though, nobody can kill and trap / control a ball like him, absolutely amazing when he does it,any part if the foot and the ball is controlled instantly
 
What is Ake's fitness problem? Thankfully we don't need him at the moment but he's been bloody unfit since he got here.

yeah. When you want funny - listen to City fans.
he probably believed it!! That’s mild compared with some of the vitriol Mahrez receives though
 
Sterling - Jesus - Mahrez
Gundo - Rodri - Bernardo
Cancelo - Laporte - Dias - Walker
Eddy

I want to save Fernandinho, Stones, Ferran and Foden for Liverpool. Jesus need to find his shooting boots and Walker really have to find form and fast. We’ll need him soon.

I’d never thought I would say the sentence ”save Stones for Liverpool” ahead of Laporte, but he’s been that good, and the CB-chemistry need to be spotless on Sunday.

I don’t believe in Sterling getting past Trent so I prefer to surprise Klopp playing Ferran on the wing instead. But it will probably not happen. Sterling seem undroppable to Pep.

I'm not Mahrez's biggest fan but I think that is harsh. He was afforded a lot more space and rarely played against packed defences for Leicester. Meant he could get his paceup and get passed a defender. Lot more difficult to do that when we push teams so far back.

I mostly blame Pep for this as he went against what we were good at and tried to find a tactic in Inverted wingers to evolve us when it really wasn't required.

As is being proven now, we are much better with natural width

"Trent"?

Are you Jermaine Jenas in disguise?

Single names are reserved for top players.
Pele and Puskas, for example.

I save time not having to enter ”Trent Alexander-Arnold”. I don’t see the problem, and neither should you.
This is not a place to hand in essays, is it?
