Riyad Mahrez - 2018/2019 performances

As I said, sure technically it's his assist but it was KDB's through ball that made it happen.

You could say that about every goal,he has scored/assisted 18 goals since sept,he is doing ok on that front,he needs to get in tune with our style and he will,patience

Hes not quite cutting the mustard. I hope he makes it but i have the feeling it just wont happen for him here.

Behave - Why wasn't it the player who passed to Kev's assist then

I think most,and I was one of them,thought he would hit the ground running when he joined us,he hasn't,dress it up as much as you like,but he hasn't.

We shall see if things eventually work out,but not impressed too many upto now I'm afraid.

The BM jury has spoken. Guilty, and condemned after 19 Premier League appearances.

Could have been more appearances if he had performed better when given the opportunity maybe eh,? got to look at it both ways,instead of offering a flippant comment

I dont think anyone is saying he has ripped up trees. Most, me included are simply saying his criticism is sometimes well OTT compared to others after a similar performance and b, he hasn't been afforded the same time as others to adapt to Peps system before writing him off.

Nobody could say he has ripped up trees,as they would be kidding themselves,but all as I'm saying I was expecting a bit more

I think we all were / are. But we have to acknowledge also that he is having to adapt to Peps style whilst getting limited starts. I don't buy this he was already a proven PL player as Pep has introduced a completely new way of playing (particularly off ball) and that takes time.

If, this time next season we are not seeing the expected results, then we will have real concerns
