Not the smartest thing to say?


thanks for posting this report..

Its great to read he is still hungry to improve and show what he can do! You sometimes worry a player takes a step back after getting a big payday but the lad seems genuinely hungry to keep gettin better, exciting to see what he can do in this team this season. As for the comments on Maguire, I think he was just trying to pay the lad a compliment, dont think it was meant as a dig at Leicester.

Mahrez...

"I'm confident I can help the team," Mahrez said. "I showed in the last three years in the Premier League that I deserve to play at the highest level and now I have to show it."
 
Delighted with this signing. Confident he'll be a regular in our first XI and the PFA Team of the Year over the next five years.
 
In a cringy sort of way. I won’t be wearing a overcoat over my city top though.
i get that, but I’ve noticed a trend in our thing at recently that are heavily aimed at kids/teens. I think they’re focusing on the next generation to get them in.
But it does seem we do leave ourselves open to mocking quite frequently so I know where you’re coming from
 
Ali Benarbia on Mahrez joining City: "Everyone in Algeria has been waiting for Mahrez to move to a really big club to see the next stage of his development."
Ali Benarbia: "The whole of Algeria is very excited at his move and you will see Algerian flags at the Etihad Stadium next season, without a doubt with many people in his country supporting him."

"Of course he deserves to play higher but Leicester are a good club as well, so let's see. He'll have to decide."

The fact he start the sentence with "Of course" suggests it was a leading question that the reported asked rather than Marhez saying "He should jump ship as they're crap", and to be fair to Marhez, he quite clearly states Leicester are a good club.
