Riyad Mahrez

[Gorbachev]

Alvarez isn’t a winger. Palmer is off and Gomez is a left winger. Mahrez is important emough warrant a proper signing

I agree. Especially if Bernardo goes too.

Needs to be an elite signing and if 100m + has to be spent then so be it.

We should receive a bare minimum of 100m for both Bernardo and Mahrez.

 

[we are the east stand]

Will be another big loss if he goes, not many better quality squad players than Mahrez to have at our disposal.

Bring back Leroy

 

[WestGorton]

No, not good enough yet

Mctee is for sure. They will both be content to be in the squad I hope so no ruption.

I'm glad someone said it. Trying to replace Mahrez with the academy kids who barely have if any senior minutes is a ridiculous notion.

You'll probably see Palmer staying now I would think. RW split between Silva/Foden/Palmer/McAtee

If Silva goes they'll go into the market, dont expect it for Mahrez alone.

This is my point, yea!

This happens every time a player leaves, people here are so afraid of what fans of other clubs will say about us spending money that they bend over backwards to replace our senior players with completely unproven kids. It’s as if they don’t know Pep. Mahrez, Laporte, Bernardo and Walker: whichever of these players (maybe all of them) leave will require a replacement to be signed, it’s as simple as that. And even then, the squad will remain thin for the demands of this next season. But one thing I’m not afraid of is change

Palmer has been tried over two seasons and I don’t think he has pleased Pep enough to stay to take on a bigger role. He was meant for a loan and that remains the best for him and us

split between Silva/Foden/Palmer/McAtee

Except Silva is likely going to and according to everyone here, Foden is to be used more centrally and probably more so because of KdB’s injury. Counting McAtee to have a significant role in the squad is not knowing what Pep is like. So you see the problem and why we need to go to the market?

 

[ysmsa]

Phenomenal talent, best first touch in world football.

No fuss, drama or shit behaviour, i'm probably guilty as every one with the FFS moniker but players like Mahrez are a huge loss when they leave.

Tremendous signing for us who
fitted in seamlessly and has probably gone largely unnoticed because he has done what was expected but his stats are consistently top end.

Hope he stays.

 

[we are the east stand]

Yeah no way we sign someone shite like Adama. Otavio could play a temporary fix but I expect someone better. Some names that come to mind are: Coman, Gnoto, Valverde, Eze/Olise, Sane, Diaby, Gnabry, Bowen, or even Harvey Barnes.

Zaha is on a free I think, one to add to the list

See how he does pre-season. Wouldnt be shocked to see him kept in the squad tbh

Bernardo is still unknown.

Foden, can't take up all those minutes especially if we want to move him central to take the load off Kev.

Palmer has not taken the Step forward some here thought he would.

James Mcatee had a solid season in the championship, but we cannot entrust him to be played out of position in the prem with little to no experience.

You have to bring someone in

So here is what we’re asking. First that Kovacic comes anywhere close to matching Gundo’s goal contributions which he has never done in a season in his career, or come anywhere close to that. Now Palmer has to do the same for Mahrez?
This is completely unrealistic

 

[Gumzy97]

If he goes will we replace him with a young talent or replace experience with experience and get a older winger in

Yes, thats exactly what i said. What the fuck did you read?

 

[Turner92]

Hope to god palmer isn’t the answer to Mahrez leaving he’s championship level at best shouldn’t be anywhere near our squad

 

[jimharri]

The fans of Al-Ahli ask their President to sign Mahrez :)

Look at all those empty seats. Mahrez would feel right at home.






"TAXI!!!!"

 

[ojeme]

Since we have lost Mahrez I think it’s important we bring in someone. I wouldn’t mind a Walker plus Cancelo swap for Sane although I know this is a non starter.

 

[ELPACINO57]

Mahrez will be badly missed, a genius footballer

Heard they also have people leaving 10 mins before full-time to beat the traffic, will be like he never left!
