#26 | Riyad Mahrez - 2020/21 Performances

[mikeyboy]

Mahrez never seems to get mentioned when it comes to naming City's most important players. When you think about that, it's crazy really considering he won PFA player of the year not too long ago. He's gone about his business under the radar, every game he plays now he affects the game in a big way. The drop quality wise to the player who comes in for him when he is rested says a lot about the level he's been at for the last few months.

Unbelievable transformation, what a player.

 

[Manc in London]

I take it all back, last month or so it’s obvious he has pulled his finger out and great to see he does actually care too

Would suggest this has been the case for three months. Imo, arguably our best player in the last two-three months, along with Foden.

It's all clicked in to place. He's always been a wonderful player but was running down blind alleys.

Now he's one of the first on the team sheet, for everyone.

Sublime skills and works as hard as anyone.

I would say the first leg was. Tonight he just had the finishing touch when it mattered

The first goal wasn't easy to score the angle was closed by the defender and goalkeeper got have amazing skills to score the first one

The first goal was a double nutmeg, that's some skill!

Congrats to Mahrez for qualifying City to their first champions league final in the history
From Leicester to City and his National team he is always a history changer

Mahrez chose violence against PSG, lmao

It's actually Walker who says it followed by a fuck off.

 

[lasereyes]

He said last week he prefers the games coming thick and fast, looks like he benefits from being in a rhythm.

I just wish he had played in the FA Cup semi ...

Outside of the well taken goals I thought that was his weakest game in a while. But the second goal seemed to settle him and his ball retention and work rate after that went up considerably. The interception he made in his own box the perfect example of that.
