26 | Riyad Mahrez - 2022/23 Performances

[Rammy Blue]

Slapped arse because he’s not been starting, and consequently sitting pretty on his new 2 year extension.

Some people fight for their shirt, Mahrez shits out of challenges and plays like a twat.

 

[Dzeko9]

He’s awful this season. Extending his contract was a bad idea.

He’s awful this season. Extending his contract was a bad idea.

I have too agree, truly awful tonight and not for the first time this season.Last year WOW and he was exceptional but he seems to have lost all the confidence in beating a man with skill and pace.

Not lost confidence, just couldn't be arsed.

Yes that also.Mard arsed fucker who at times pulls out of many a tackle when he`s favourite to win it.

 

[skillman]

Kinell. He’ll be an important cog again this season despite a bad start. A few bad games doesn’t mean a player is taking the piss and resting on their laurels because of a new contract.

Some of the shit on here makes it pretty evident some couldn’t wait for him to start underperforming just to have their own ‘I told you so’ moment.

 

[The Fat el Hombre]

Not looking interested right now. Disappointing again tonight and not really looking up for the fight but still early days

 

[Stelea]

Rubbish.
Shouldn’t be starting.
I’m sick of his non-existence 1st half’s each time he starts, dating back to the end of last season.
I think he would be better suited to come off the bench when the game is stretched so he can balls up one on ones like he did v Forest

 

[itisrising]

He was poor. But he's certainly got credit in the bank, no point jumping on his back because we'll need him to step up if we're going to win the league/CL.

 

[ninjamonkey]

Poor but 80% of our play was down the left. the switch of play that's usually very accurate was regularly off tonight regardless of who made it and had Stones behind him who wasn't going to offer much offensive backup. He had very little opportunity to actually do anything. Has valid excuses but still needs to be much much better. Has plenty of credit in the bank and don't doubt he'll find form soon enough but currently has to be behind Alvarez more often than not until he ups his game.

It’s not just a few bad games, he was wank towards the end of last season and a goal at the Bernabeu gave him some credit.

Another big goal from him in a season filled with important goals. That credit has been built up more than enough over the past season or so for him to be cut some slack when things aren’t going his way. Other players are shielded for a lot less IMO

Things haven’t been going his way for far to long.

 

[RonnieColeman123]

One of my biggest concerns about him at the moment was evident when Kev had a fantastic first touch to give him possession in the centre circle, they had committed many players forward for once and a simple first time pass to Cancelo was on yet he took three touches and was tactically fouled to stop the counter. All our players slumped.

It’s very worrying. He thrives on the counter attack. Something is off. He’s on the wrong side of 30 as well. It’s not looking good. For the love of god I don’t understand why he won’t run at the fullback.

 

[super_city_si]

worst player on the pitch. Badly out of form.

 

[Withnail]

Has the ability, but needs to up his game and doesn't deserve a place in the side on current form. However, with our small squad he will be needed.

 

[Akira]

Was absolutely dire. Maybe he will get better, but atm he does not warrant a spot in the first XI.

 

[FantasyIreland]

Always be powder puff.....occasionally brilliant,mostly a limp cock.

 

[Goldust]

Similar to grealish, lacks the fight and tenacity. Although the pair of them would benefit from natural fullbacks behind them.

It is his fitness levels and hunger which have dropped. He let himself go too much over the summer and needs to cut down on his jet set party lifestyle or Pep will dump him. He has been world class for us at times but there is no time for sentiment.
