Leicester City winger Riyad Mahrez has been nominated for the UEFA Champions League’s Goal of the Week and Player of the Week awards.

Seems like you have to register and state the team you support but they don't recognise LCFC.

Brilliant news it was a great free kick and good to see him being looked in the same light as messi and other world stars . He is undoubtedly our magician and the player we look to for that bit of skill and magic that can turn a game

I think it was goal of the week but I don't think he's entire performance warrants player of the week. I thought he was a solid 8 out of ten for us, but Messi and Aguero were next level.

For the purposes of voting for Mahrez, I'm a Wigan fan.

Didn't have to join, and he's 3rd on 19%

Great goal, but overall performance doesn't warrant huge praise. Riyad is still in third gear this season. Find that 4th soon please!!

wow UEFA don't understand the rules unless a goal is scored from open play they don't count. I think all UEFA delegate's should sign up to foxestalk and learn the rules.
