Mahrez

Recommended Posts

I've seen a few LCFC fans saying that Mahrez should be dropped next game.

Personally I think that's crazy!

I am a big fan of mahrez and it's clear to see that his a massive threat to teams. We do have good competition on the wings now but definitely think Mahrez should be in starting 11.

Would of been nice to see him take a shot on rather than try and take the opponent again today but I'm sure this would of been mentioned to him today

Thought he was decent enough today. Only problems I had with him were his corners, and not shooting when the opportunity came. Two or three times he could/should have shot on his favoured left foot.

He made some poor decisions today, but that's all part of the learning curve. great to see he wasn't fazed by the big names of Chelsea

and had the confidence to try and take them on. He has to stay in the side as it's the only way he will learn. He also won't come up against defenders 

of the caliber of Chelsea every week.

massive fan of riyad, at times today when he was running at the full back he looked class, full of confidence and has the ability to dazzle anyone, however, tried too much at times today, without doubt our biggest threat going forward from midfield, dropping him would be madness

This isn't a dig but I did notice he was the only Leicester player not to clap the fans at the beginning on the match.

 

Today he was ok, corners were abysmal but that bit where he turned azpiliblahblah and shot shows what quality he has.

Agree with all of this, he had a very decent game with moments of magic but like you said if he can improve his decision making In front of goal we could be having to defend bids for him come January/next summer

He was our biggest attacking threat for the second game in a row.

 

He caused the Champions-elect a headache at times today, yes he was missing the final ball but maybe somebody else should step up and help him out in an attacking sense.

 

Enjoy Riyad whilst he is here; bigger fish will be circling soon enough.

He did okay today, a couple of bits of real skill plus a sublime pass, but also some poor crossing / corners and drifted in and out of the game.

This is a massive step up for him playing at this level week in week out. He needs to stay in the team as the more games / experience he gets, the more effective he will become.

Had moments of brilliance alongside some poor decision making, like Knockaert he's a bit too one footed.

 

Maybe give him a rest in the cup and give an opportunity to Albrighton to gain some match practice. No doubt Mahrez is our best player technically and will be very important for us this season but he's far from the finished product.

Drifted in and out of the game?

 

We were playing Chelsea, at Stamford Bridge, I've seen Lionel Messi struggle in such circumstances. With that in mind he had a very good game. Fair enough ht was probably guilty of not pulling the trigger as early as he could sometimes but working the space is 3/4 of the battle at this level.

I'm a big fan of Riyad but today his corner taking was woeful.

 

I did notice numerous times that if he looked like going on one of his runs with the ball Chelsea put 3 players close on him instantly to nip it in the bud. Teams have done their homework on him and know where that threat lies.

 

Somehow he seems to nearly always come away with the ball and there is no doubting his skills.

 

He's a bit like Knocky, when his runs, shimmies, step overs, twists and turns come off he's brilliant, but when it doesn't you get the groans from the crowd. Trouble is, they ain't going to "come off" if he doesn't try, so, for me, he can do what does all day as there is nothing better than watching him.

 

There is no doubting his talent but I think he needs to be a nit more "Crafty" and not be so "Honest" at times.

He looked every bit like a player trying to get himself noticed today. Key word being 'himself'. Although it's great that he wanted the ball and wanted to create something, his eagerness to impress whoever was not what his team needed today. I reckon Pearson will have had some strong words with the boy.

Completely agree with your points from several perpectives. He was the lynchpin in several critical moves against Everton. He was at times trying to do a little too much today but he is a very technically gifted player that needs to improve on his decision making, physique, and strength. Really fun to watch when he turns players around like he did with Barry in the buildup to the Wood equalizer.
