[The perfect fumble]

Stones is playing well.

 

[kaz7]

Does red have the authority to stop the game if it’s not head injury?

No

 

[rnblade]

Mahrez HAS to be doing better in those situations.
I’m sure he will up his game as we move through.

 

[Neville Kneville]

Obvious difference from last season is attacking fullbacks.

 

[super_city_si]

Mahrez finding out he needs to up his game to be in this team.

 

[brummie blue]

I can see Pep playing Delph instead of Mendy against teams with a proper attack, he's causing Fernandino to have to cover that side.

 

[tommo74]

Mahrez has plenty to learn

To be fair it's his first league game, and he is used to playing in a team that just looks for quick long balls over the top for steptoe to chase

 

[mat]

Sterling has learnt to use all his weapons.

The Sun would love that....

 

[malg]

Another before half time would be good.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Great challenge by Laporte.

We need a second.
