We've got 2 of the 5 :)His close ball control and first touch is something out of this world. Messi, Isco, Mahrez, Bernardo have the best close ball control in the world of football.

Ok Fantasy lol. There were a few comments arround me at HT where fans said they thought he would be subbed 10mins into second half. I'm glad he wasn't.
At the moment he just doesn't fit into the team, the word team being the operative word. He is playing for himself, wanting to be the main man to the detriment of the end result. Yesterday he shot probably three times from very narrow angles when passing to a teammate may have won us the game. Pep needs to impress this into him very quickly or he will be restricted to a role from the bench until.he learns.

Bernado being the prime example.Its not even November, how anyone thinks a player can come into Peps magical kingdom where things tend to be quite different than other clubs and click straight away is beyond me.
I would generally expect any player coming here the best part of a season to even approach "getting it" and therefore able to produce their best stuff for City. Mahrez will be no different and could be quite special next season. In the meantime I expect he will improve even more as the weeks go by.
