Well they came for him but they didn't agree on the wage.

Or may be he is just crap...though shit he his on big wage.

 

Shoot him!

[adam]

Mahrez is playing at his level, he isnt good enough to play for any of the so called bigger teams. He is useless with two players on him and his attitude looks very poor.

Mahrez will never be the same again for Leicester. 

 

As predicted he is fading away and will probably be sold to Barca in January.

 

He wiil have to accepte a lower wage this time.

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH *pause* HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA Barca, maybe if he left after last season. The way he is playing now MAYBE he can wipe Messis ass?

PS: you forgot Neymar's ass 

[easilee]

mahrez cannot handle the pressure of two men now for some reason

 

[lgfualol]

More chance of him going to Stoke.

 

I suppose him burning out shouldn't really be surprising. Last season he was just unreal.

 

Needs dropping though, as much as I love him. It worked last season when he was dropped for Norwich away. 

[NewEnglandFox]

We're been waiting for him to come good for 4 league games now. 5 counting the Community Shield. 7 counting Barca and PSG. It's time for a seat on the bench.

Two guys at once sounds HARD

 

He needs to get his head out of the sand and get back to it

[Mark]

He's having to do much more tracking back now Kante isn't around to mop up, that would effect any winger.

Yep, Hazard looking much better with Kante.

[foxes_rule1978]

Did we make a secret swap with Chelsea, hazard for Mahrez ?

This! we need to give Mahrez a pure attacking role which is why we need to change the way we play, let's get the best out of the quality players we do have

[fuchsntf]

Maybe we have forgot, how to be fearless..!!

Claudio should think about forgetting the defence, and just attack.

Return to the antics of the beginning of last season.

I dont want to jump the gun, but it could be that the ladt 3 seasons without a break, is telling on Morgan.

The full season and a summer tournament, might of been also too much for the older Fuchs.

The side looks like it needs fresh legs, and now a 3 man midfield at least.

That means one less Wingback and DD, Mendy, Armatey playing closer.

Dont start getting at the individual players.After last season new boys from within and new

buys need time. We are not at Man.citys level in . quality of squad, and our owners  were never

going to spend 100mil+. Al l players look bad, when chasing past form, and newbies have nothing

to fall back on, and support their needed time for integration, if old guard are not performing.

Claudio has to get the squad to refind their mojo...

Make no mistake our squad were knackered phyically and more mentallity, after giving their all

to grind out  their  whole potentiall to confirm the title. Just maybe Claudio might need to

give the youngsters now their futures in more games. The  spirit may well  still be there and willing

but it could be the body might need 3-4 months, before it clicks again...

Play Mahrez in the 1st CL, but bench time might help him to refind his mental strength and his dribbling skills,

after a couple of planned PL pauses.

whatever its far too early to forsake the lads, and even your own dreams.Now coaches and Claudio have to

earn their bread..

We forgot about the defence today didn't we? 

[mattsmith74]

Based on his performances only 4 games ago, Mahrez is PFA Player of the Year. If he's still performing this way at the end of the month then we should be worried. My concern is defensively we were a shambles. Morgan and Fuchs both caught badly out of position for first two goals. We didn't see the usual graft from forward two either. It wasn't ever going to be easy this year. If teams have worked us out then Claudio has to find a new plan. I reckon that the small matter of the fact he made us Chamipons means he might just be able to.

Being fair it's hard for Mahrez to show his best with only one attacking support player or any note. Even today he laid the perfect chance on for Vardy (1v1 saved) so the bloke wasn't completely inconsequencial.

 

However, there's a downside with Mahrez especially when we're under pressure like today.

He's no defender and, without a single genuinely defensive central midfielder we looked ridiculously vulnerable under pressure and Klopp knew it. 

 

Even if it means changing our system we have to get more balance,  pace and flexibility in our team. The fear factor is much diminished right now.

Genuine question (as I can't remember), were we not playing 4-4-2 in the great escape? 

No we spent three quarters of the season at the bottom of the league playing 4-4-2.

It was only when we changed to three centre backs, wing backs and three in central midfield, which in turn gave Cambiasso the legs around him, to let him express himself, run the games,  and show us just how good he was, that we turned things around.

 

[Vardinio'sCat]

 

I think missing is harsh, he looked a bit sharper today to me. Ok, but not great. Still not gliding past people like they aren't there, but better than the last few games. 

 

The whole team has only turned up for 2 out of 4 games, so I'm not going to stick the boot in just yet.

 

Give it another couple poor performances an I might reconsider tho... 

[Guest Col city fan]

Said this after the Swansea game. If you didn't know that Mahrez was Mahrez (if he'd just signed and was making his home debut), you'd think 'why the Hell have we signed him?'

Seriously, he's been that bad. The problem is clear for anyone willing to see. He's a marked man and doesn't know how to adapt his game to overcome this. Yet. I'm hoping he does with time.

The stark reality is however, since the start of the season he's been absolutely fookin awful and if he had been bought for 40 mill and continued to play like this, we'd all be rubbing our hands in glee.

Absolutely spot on sir.

[Munshi]

Bad patch so let's all make the skillful flair player the scapegoat. Mahrez wasn't the only shit player today and wasn't the only shit player at Hull. Yeah maybe he isn't taking on 4 players and sticking it in the top corner but neither was Drinkwater making his passes today, Morgan and Huth were dreadful. A lot of our fans cannot handle having a player of this quality at our club.

We're also missing Mahrez, the bloke who's replaced him this year wearing his shirt is dogshit.

Mahrez is going formissing us,

it goes hand in hand,

Always said he's the most overrated player we have

17 assists and 11 goals last season. A massive massive part of the reason we won the PREMIER LEAGUE ffs.

 

Seriously, are some people purposely taking the piss?

[Manwell Pablo]

The only thing  we are badly missing is perspective. One swallow does not make a summer, nor does it deliver multiple major trophies. You should all be grateful this particular swallow flew at the right time and with the right flight and delivered the impossible. 

 

Fight night has resulted in copus amounts of alcohol so prolly about as loaded as kitch is most Monday's at 1.30pm but get a grip lads. We ain't winning shit this year, Riyadh Mahrez is worth roughly half what you think he is, and our first target is 40 points. Liverpool away, hard ****ing fixture, it's not 15/16 anymore.

I don't doubt he has quality,but is overrated,

Very talented-yes
