I think this is a signing that is going to be exactly what you expect that you’re getting. He’s going to be a serious threat on set pieces, in open play, and in tight spaces. He played that cute little ball on a corner that created the only slight chance that I can remember from the match. KDB/Mahrez debates on set pieces are going to be a nightmare for defenses.
Cleared his throat tonight and will take a few more weeks to warm up, but we won’t see ANYTHING like what we are hoping for until he gets on the pitch with the first teamers. I think everyone is salivating waiting for a counterattack with Mahrez, Silva, Sané, KDB, and Aguero running at full tilt, with Mendy and Walker flying down the wings in support.
You are absolutely right but then a lot of the kids playing in these games won't be given the same leeway. They are expected to be spot on now, or not good enough wheras Mahrez will get as much time as he wants.
Hard to judge on the Dortmund game , but showed flashes of real class and his dead balls could be really valuable this season , he cant half take a free kick , something we havent had since Yaya used to knock them in on a weekly basis
Hard to judge last night as some of the youngsters just weren't on the same level as him. Really excited to see what he can bring.
That’s because he has already proven his worth at the highest level, and these kids have not. When they do, they too will get some forebearance. Chicken meet egg, I know, but all in good time.
