Lot of money to be paying for a rotation player.
You will catch a few with that one

If he was that good he'd be off to the Rags, or Liverpool.....Great signing.
In my eyes, he’s underrated by many on here.
I consider him to be one of the most naturally gifted players in the league.
Can’t be arsed looking it on google but what age is mahrez (27) ?
Delighted. Was worried about overplaying our wide players and Dinho all last season and waiting for them to burn out/get injured. Two great players that are well suited to the team like being our first two bits of business this summer so no complaints from me.good guess from me cheers mate,what do you reckon on him good signing or ok ..
I'm not being anything,i asked you to back up your statement,not my fault you can't answer itthen it wasn't meant that way...stop being so defensive...you will do yourself a mischief by the end of the transfer window!
True , but I didnt really think of Yaya as a first team player last season.
I was going to say that, but I couldn't be...I'm absolutely astounded at how lazy this is.
lolIt's not just enough to answer the question like that, this is the transfer forum, we need exhaustive lists of statistics and player comparisons.
To be fair I’m slightly worried about mahrez,can’t knock him he’s a top player but just have that niggle when things aren’t going to well he can go missing also showed a lack of tracking back at Leicester in games,maybe I’m being to negative,wonder if after Jorginho will there be any other signings,if a situation presents itself..Delighted.

Squad players = Delph (as good as he's been he's not our starting LB once Mendy is injury free), Danilo, and so on.Depends how you're classifying a squad player. I'd argue that the vast majority of our players are squad players as the only definitive first team players are those who have no proper replacement among the rest of the squad. Prior to the start of last season, these would have been Ederson, Mendy, Fernandinho, De Bruyne and Sane. The rest all have very adequate back up players and the first team choice is sometimes arguable.
I think that during last season Delph proved himself as a competent reserve LB thankfully and this summer has been about improving the rotation option for some of those other players. Notably Jorginho for Fernandinho and Mahrez for Sane (which may be by proxy of Sterling or Jesus playing from the left more frequently with Mendy able to offer more attacking width).
I think people maybe misunderstood you as 'not a squad player' could mean 'definitive first team starter'. There's no way Mahrez should be that as Sterling and Sane are already at least as valuable as him and have higher ceilings, regardless of Mahrez's price tag.
