26 | Riyad Mahrez - 2022/23 Performances

He frustrates the hell out of me when he plays that wide right role . Plucks the ball majestically out of the sky then passes it straight back.
That may well be his instructions to keep possession but when he moved into a more central area yesterday he scored two belters that reminded me of the Leicester Mahrez .

The first FA Cup Semi-final hat-trick since 1958. I think he benefitted from having Walker behind him as much as Grealish struggled from having Gomez behind him yesterday

Riyad is a very gifted player. His first touch is exquisite, I've never seen better.

He also works much harder than some would credit. His second goal is a testament to that in terms of how he won the ball in the first place.

His good fortune and misfortune is to be at City, which means he doesn't start every week. It's a hard life.

Great hatrick Riyadh.
If that second goal had been scored by a Rag or Dipper it would be on a loop on Sly until October.

He is a Premier League icon.

People have been well over the top with their criticism this season. Gets similar treatment to Kev in that regard.

People still call Mahrez FFS even he plays well, which never happens to De Bruyne.

Seeing Mahrez score his hat-trick had me wondering whether he could ever score a perfect hat-trick, probably not.

He’s scored with his head and right foot for us so it’s not impossible.

Pretty sure that's tongue in cheek, mate.
