Riyad Mahrez

[Academica]

You aren't getting him for 60m Euros.

Ok £60m deal ?

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Where has this rumour come from ?

It's gone beyond rumour. It's real. But Leicester will want shit loads to sell him at this late stage. So it's down to how much we're willing to pay.

 

[Delphinho]

Why don’t people want him?

Every top club wanted him last summer including Barca, Roma etc

We need a LW, not a RW. Not worth it for that price imo

I don't know what we'll accept, but it has to be reasonable and recent transfers for defenders make anything below £75m unreasonable for an attacking talent whose stats are right up there with the best, especially when you consider he's in a team where he's expected to do most of it by himself.

I agree to a point, but you're really talking about 1 defender, VVD to Liverpool, so basing it on one fee is probably ambitious. If Arsenal are getting Aubemyang for around £60, then that is probably a better base.

Who is the player we are rumouring to be offering??

 

[The blue phantom]

How much do they want for him?

I give not one fuck as it's not my money, If it's something we know we can do then get it done.

Sit back and then watch the meltdown, that will be even sweeter.

Sane was also a RW when we bought him, he can obv play both sides

We've seen the negative effect all this has on mahrez's game when he doesn't get what he wants. If you hold onto him after a 70m bid comes in, Mahrez will be in an even bigger sulk than after summer. Risky.

He's been better than ever this year after ignoring his request and turning down bids, so that idea doesn't hold any water for me. If you bid £70m and we can get a replacement you'll probably get him. But he needs to realise this is of your making and not ours by leaving it so late.

 

[Easy]

Remember Pep has praised him before. Despite the market can’t see this going over £60m. Who would pay that much? Maybe only Liverpool.

Better to sell for less than keep a player that clearly wants out.

For that reason, I'm in!
