Riyad Mahrez

@bobmcfc we have walked away,they wanted 95m we said no

SSN say its over - why should we believe those KFA's - they said we had made 3 bids etc. etc. All they are doing is edging their bets - it doesnt happen then they say I told you so - if it does Jim White and his cronies are in their element later tonight - Last minute U-Turn stuff etc. Don't think it will happen but may be wrong - SSN certainly don't know.

I would've liked Mahrez here but I like better that the club place their own value on transfers, and won't be pushed around.
£95m is £40m more than we paid for KDB, which is outrageous.

Oh dear ....... your flapping could cause a hurricane.

i am not flapping stating the truth

The problem is the player. We seem to have almost used him as a weapon to drive the price down. We knew they wanted £90m yesterday. We knew we were never paying more than £65 - £70m but we kept offering piddling increases whilst encouraging him to down tools to drive them to desperation.

If we have walked and dumped him in it that is not classy. And agents and players could recall that in future when you lot are calling players to demand to go.

Hope this is not it because I don't think we have done anyone proud this time if it stays like this.

In your opinion completely dead deal ?

We won't go back in summer.

Our game against them next weekend just got much tougher.

The incredibly public pursuit of a player, with 2 days of the transfer window, with him downing tools and fucking up his relationship with his club and then us pulling out makes no fucking sense. You have the conversation about fees at the start. It's atrocious business and left the player in the shite.

"Incredibly public" Ah yes, I forgot we're conducting our business in Piccadilly Square.

Interesting to see Mahrez respond to this latest disappointment.

It's the other way round actually. The impression we are creating is that we are prepared to pay a fair valuation but we won't have the piss taken out of us.
£95 million, you're having a laugh.

This all day. 95m is an insult. Not only is Mahrez not worth that, he's trying to force his way out. Aubemayang just went for nearly half that, the market is not THAT inflated.

I’d say the opposite.
