Welcome Riyad Mahrez

[TheThirdDeano]

Surprised we negotiated to an increased fee instead of a reduced fee in the end. 60 mill is a lot for a 27 year old. Wasn't impressed with him going AWOL when he didn't get what he wanted. Poor mentality.

if this isn’t bait then you should change “city” to “I am”

A bit off-topic but can anyone tell me the best place to buy our new 2018/19 blue kit? I am in the US.

Or I’m sure soccer.com has it but I’d prefer my $US go mostly to the club.

Welcome Mahrez.

Think you are gonna make quite a few swallow their words on this forum.

Not a better signing made by a Premier League club so far this window.

Our attacking options now read;

Aguero
Jesus
Sterling
Sane
Bernardo
Mahrez
KDB
Silva
Diaz
Nmecha

Hahaha. Thats really not fair. Hahaha

I'd say as you being a poster your judgement is also poor.

Could you imagine being forced to stay somewhere when you have been given previous assurances?

Also where do you get this inflated fee from?

 

[Dirty Harry]

Absolutely brilliant signing, I've a feeling quite a few fans are going to be surprised just how good this lad is.

 

[manchester blue]

Takes his cap off to shake hands with the boss. Impeccable manners right there. Another 40m and we could have had Ronaldo. :)

I think his game is going to go to another level with us. Excited to see how he gets on.

Why didn't you tell me you were African???

Welcome to God's own club, expect an uneasy ride from the media but you'll be loved by us and that's all that matters.

 

[BLUEMATT23]

Think he'll be a cracking signing!

Former PFA Player of the year and title winner, too. Should have no problem fitting in!

Dont get excited. He won't win player of year here.

I think he might. Attacking wise. He has everything to push City further.

 

[pride in battle]

Unbelievable player, can be world class at City...

He calls him Allah, and there’s no such thing as either

 

[Deleted member 77198]

Top singing! He’s 27 so he’s another player in his prime (26-29) which was needed really because in those CL games against Liverpool our front three were 22-21-23 and Liverpool’s were all 26 and our inexperience showed. He’ll also bring better dribbling/shooting/crossing ability from the right

I think he might well be the one to win it with us.

I’ve not really had a problem with any of those who’ve pipped any of our players to that title in the years we’ve won the league. The only one I was bothered about was Kyle Walker beating Kun to Young Player of the Year in 2012, that was a joke!

But Mahrez will surprise a lot of people. He’s the best forward signing we’ve made since Kun in 2012 and could make us frightening in all comps going forward.

I hope he reads this forum.

 

[Lovebitesandeveryfing]

Ridiculous attack now, really.

But fuck it, we didn't make it to a thousand pages. Unlock the thread and tell him to fuck off back to Leicester until we get those seventeen pages of speculation in.

 

[Blue Llama]

Ridiculous attack now, really.

Cannot wait. Mahrez flying at em down the right, Sane doing same on left. Kun and/or Jesus in the middle with Silva and KDB pulling the strings.

Where's sterling?

Surely he has to win a place of Sterling first? He was unbelievable last year.

What about Raheem Sterling?
