I better watch a Garrincha than a Milner. Each his own.A team player who prioritises team's requirements and manager's plan over showcasing personal flair and perhaps that's the reason why Pep thinks so highly of him and gave him a 2 year extension which was one of his finest decisions.
Lol so what he is supposed to do if his manager wants him to play a certain way? All players know its Pep way or the Highway so how can he be blamed for doing what manager wants? At Leicester he was the one of the main players and had the same freedom which KDB enjoys at city now adays.I better watch a Garrincha than a Milner. Each his own.
By the way, "showcasing personal flair" helped Leicester win a historic championship. Look where Leicester is today.
But don't you see that posters here are questioning why he's not attacking the fullback? They're not saying he's following instructions. This whole discussion started from that point. Go back a bit and read within context.Lol so what he is supposed to do if his manager wants him to play a certain way?

There are few ways to look at this, most of the times Mahrez is occupied by 2 players and rarely get the space to launch a meaningful attack however this helps the midfield in finding space through the middle and launching attacks from the left flank so even if he's not finding joy he helps the team. Then there is a tactical element of ball retention where focus is more on creating good opportunities rather than taking a risk to create one and loosing possession in the process, further he's 32 so he doesn't have the same agility or pace to play the role he did at Leicester and lastly in present setup only Debruyne has the same level of freedom which Mahrez enjoyed at Leicester, he has to be disciplined for the greater good of the team which he does and for that very reason pep offered him the contract extensionBut don't you see that posters here are questioning why he's not attacking the fullback?

No need for that. He played his part this season.Easy to see why he isn’t getting picked.
A warrior he’s not.

Defensively he did very wellWhere was he today? Don’t want him anywhere near the starting XI in the finals. This guy either performs or is ghosting the whole game, no in-between with him
I think he is nailed on for the FA Cup final. He shouldn’t be getting anywhere near the CL final though.Where was he today? Don’t want him anywhere near the starting XI in the finals. This guy either performs or is ghosting the whole game, no in-between with him
Terrible in games like these.Where was he today? Don’t want him anywhere near the starting XI in the finals. This guy either performs or is ghosting the whole game, no in-between with him
Where was De Bruyne? He was playing too, apparently.Where was he today? Don’t want him anywhere near the starting XI in the finals. This guy either performs or is ghosting the whole game, no in-between with him
well that's what bugs me people like you who make stuff up just for pure hateTerrible in games like these.
Unlike some of the other senior players he played in his usual position but contributed nothing and shit out of every challenge.
I do find however with Mahrez that the bigger the game, the more he will deliver.
Likely to start to FA Cup final but I would doubt the UCL final as I think we all know Pep has arrived on a formula for that
