Here is more for you .. Mahrez second after Messi in goals and assists in Champions League. Cracking what's performing well last year got to do with this year? Leicester have been in one of the worst Champions league groups in recent times, 3 goals against Bruges, 2 penalties. when he does it against the top teams then maybe mention it And assists??
lcfcsnow Posted 26 November 2016 Posted 26 November 2016 It made me laugh as I thought it would wake him up when Slimani came on and he'd start connecting with the forward, two minutes later Ranieri subbed him.

Mahrez goals don't count now .. Read carefully. I said: Goals + Assists = 5 in Champions League. You have extended the wish to see him go in January. Keep praying or even better go talk to the club management.

All that space on the right. Simpson could either run there and take some defenders away from Mahrez, or run there and be useful for a change. Replacement needed. Can we sell everyone and buy Bellerin?

the fox Posted 27 November 2016 Posted 27 November 2016 3 hours ago, HankMarvin said: Hey here is some more "propaganda" In 356 minutes of Premier League action playing together since September 17, Mahrez has only passed successfully to Vardy on just one occasion. Indeed, taking into consideration the whole league season to date and Mahrez has found Vardy with a pass just 9 times One questions. Do you honestly believe that the only one at fault in this situation is mahrez. He is 100℅ responsible for vardy not getting a pass. Like at all
GingerrrFox Posted 27 November 2016 Posted 27 November 2016 Ranieri seems to be losing patience with Riyad and part of it is what is happening off the pitch. He is late for everything. Late for training, late for the pre-match meet up/meal etc etc. It's the same as being late everyday for work, your boss thinks you're taking the piss and showing poor application. You can get away with that shit when you are a world beater but seeing as Riyad's performances on the whole this season have been poor, there is only so long you can let it slide and make exceptions and excuses for it. Riyad needs a wake up call as do a few others in the squad.

Riyad needs a wake up call as do a few others in the squad. He seriously needs to buck up his ideas. Looked really annoyed when taken off yesterday but what does he expect. If he wants to be a world class player he needs to sort out his attitude. Even look at Messi, Ronaldo, Bale etc it's not just that they are incredibly talented they also work really hard in training. Mahrez may be thinking he should be at Barca, Real Madrid or a club like that but if he doesn't sort him self out nobody will want him. If Demi Gray is smart he will be working twice as hard thinking I can take this guys place soon. Claudio has managed some world class players and he didn't get to the top by not being ruthless. He comes across as a really nice bloke but if Mahrez thinks for a minute that the Don wont drop him if he is slacking and not pulling his weight then he's in for a wake up call soon. Don't become an Adel Taraabt Riyad.
NewEnglandFox Posted 29 November 2016 Posted 29 November 2016 It's time we talk about penalties and their ability to massively and undeservedly inflate someone's goal tally. It's a free shot from 12 yards at a keeper. 1581 of the 1876 penalties taken in the premier league have turned into goals. That's 84% conversion and the easiest way to score a goal in this game. When the referee points to the spot, that's why we get that feeling like it's an automatic goal, because 17 of 20 of them end up in the back of the net and they count just the same as if you do 40,000 step-overs before curling it top bins. Pretty goals aren't worth more. Any teammate on the pitch can take that 84% shot and get a +1 in the goal tally for it. So far Riyad has stepped up to that spot having won 0 of the 7 penalties awarded to us. Gray got clipped at Hull and Mahrez went to the spot and converted it. Mahrez gets a goal, Gray gets forgotton. However it was Gray gifted Mahrez the 84% chance to score a goal. Who did the hard work? Who deserves credit? Yet some people want to goal to that goals and assist sheet and talk about who is good and who is bad disregarding this lovely sitution? Do you want to talk about how difficult it is to do something that has been done 1581 of the 1876 times before? Unless the result is on the line at the death, I don't consider pressure an excuse when any of the the guys with the same color shirt as you can take it. The referee has pointed to the spot a total of 6 times with Albrighton, Okazaki, Vardy twice, and Callum Chambers contributing to the decision to award the penalty. Mahrez has converted 5 of the 6 total he's taken having won zero of them. Who did the work? I think the credit should go the penalty winners with one or two lenient calls from the referee. Take those 5 gifts away and he's exposed with 2 assists, 1 goal from open play and one free kick goal in 19 games. I think it's pure irony that the supposedly struggling Albrighton and Vardy along with Gray who is supposedly not doing enough to take Riyad's place are the one's propping up his goal total.

My God, the hatred is really deep ... I thought it was only fanboys stuff ... but this is scary ... I'm outta here ... Edit: now, I understand the incentive behind all your discrediting and denigrating posts about Mahrez. You are like on a mission. This is only sports. It's just football. It's just football. Let people have some fun for God sake.

Mahrez has missed more than 16%of penalties for us surely? Slimani's penalty was a belter though. Gray to start on Saturday against Sunderland, benching Mahrez might teach him a lesson.

Guest bennytwohats Posted 29 November 2016 Posted 29 November 2016 Bizarre to see you all wish away one of the best players we have ever had. What we need to do is sort out the service to our attacking players (I.e. The midfield). Players like Mahrez don't just become useless overnight.

Threads popping up daily asking to bench/drop/sell him. You gotta know what you want. Besides, I am sick and tired of defending him and other players with people who might have never played a game of football. I believe that he will definitely move away next summer. All signs are pointing toward that. I wish the situation were different.

I believe that he will definitely move away next summer. All signs are pointing toward that. I wish the situation were different. I think it's because everyone has such high standards of Riyad after last season, there is still underlying love from the doubters that will reappear when he does some magic. He has been a bit frustrating and passes have been un-Riyad-like, but he is struggling because he is surrounded by people that have lost the ability to play football in the league. He needs more game time with Slimani, Gray, etc - players that don't shit themselves when the ball is at their feet. When you have 3-4 players on you when you have the ball, it's pretty impossible to make things happen when your options are Simpson, King/Amartey or a lifeless Vardy.
Loves2spooge Posted 29 November 2016 Posted 29 November 2016 > You're either sold an hero > or play long enough to see yourself hated by the fanboys MFW leicester won the premiere league and everybody was happy MFW leicester fanbooys want to bench mahrez & vardy for underperforming I didn't know we we're fc barcelona , I mean sure let's sell mahrez and vardy , we have world class players to replace them , like Amarty , remember amarty ? The guy who denied a clear goal occasion that could've cost us the game last week stop your fantasies and calm your tidies , This is leicester a small club that by a miracle and hard work lifted the Premiere league trophy and is now competing in the round of 16 of the UCL This was done with TEAM WORK and sacrifices , Benching , selling and bitching about players isn't gonna solve anything on the pitch as it's clearly not a player or players problem , it's something in the decisions taken by the coach and some players during the game , the players keep doing bad calls wrong passes and defensive errors , add to that the whole shape of the team that looks tired , we all know what the answer to this problem is PIZZA
