Thank you Riyad Mahrez | Officially left City (pg17)

[jacko74]

Don't begrudge him an opportunity to be set for life in a place he's comfortable with.

I did lol at that a bit.

By any rational standards he was already financially set for life before even joining City... never mind the millions more he's now going to earn in Saudi.

 

[Whether or not]

If you looked at Mahrez when he collected his CL medal he was not celebrating. Self before team and we don’t do that, so a good move all round. Overall a successful signing for us and a good fee.
This is a somewhat different thread to the sanctimonious abuse being hurled at Henderson by the outraged scousers. Mahrez will think he is in Bootle with all the ‘we are better than that’ legends now in Saudi with him.

Top player. Much better than some on here give him credit for. We won't get anyone better for the £30m we are getting for him IMO.

Thanks Riyad and good luck for the future.

Despite many weirdos on here and the match day cranks opinion Mahrez has been a great servant to the club and he goes with my thanks amd wishes of a continued good career

Well said, been a good buy for pep, scored some great goals, had some shite games, as do them all, best if not THE best trapper of a ball ive seen.

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

Great servant with a first touch unrivalled. Did exceptional for us. Pleasure seeing him in Sky Blue.

 

[Legal Alien]

He could be very frustrating at times but he was a big time player who scored some great & vital goals for us.

Good luck lad.

 

[BlueRockape]

We will miss him

Goes with thanks and best wishes, sublime first touch, could appear lazy, particularly in the early days, and could be predictable, but scored a fair few beauties in his time. Would have been a squad player next season anyway so a good move all round

 

[TinFoilHat]

We will miss him

Match Day thread won't be the same without him...

 

[Inter Me Nan]

All the best fella, you'll be missed.
