yorkie1999 Posted 8 July 2017 Posted 8 July 2017 2 hours ago, deep blue said: If Mahrez wanted out now then he shouldn't have shown it by coming to some sort of informal agreement, which doesn't seem to be binding, but by signing a contract for a single year. By signing a 4-year contract (no doubt for purposes of greed and insurance) he technically, and legally, committed himself to us for 4 years. He should expect no other outcome than that we will let him go on OUR terms, not his.. On the other hand, we could have offered him a lucrative contract that he found hard to resist because of the lack of other offers thereby ensuring we get the maximum amount of money for him because he's on a long term contract.
Matt Posted 8 July 2017 Posted 8 July 2017 Quote Riyad Mahrez 'furious with Leicester City after Arsenal move blocked' By Daniel Lewis, Football League Correspondent Filed: Saturday, July 8, 2017 at 17:37 UK Last Updated: Saturday, July 8, 2017 at 17:39 UK Leicester City winger Riyad Mahrez has reportedly made it known that he is unhappy with the club's decision to play hardball with Arsenal regarding a summer move. The Algeria international intends to leave the King Power Stadium before the end of the transfer window, a year on from playing a starring role in the Foxes' famous Premier League title triumph. Arsenal have shown a strong rumoured interest in recruiting the 26-year-old but were put off by Leicester's supposed £50m valuation, instead turning their focus to AS Monaco ace Thomas Lemar for a similar price. According to The Mirror this has left Mahrez unhappy as he was promised that he could move on this summer, with the ex-Le Havre man fearing that he will now be priced out of a move as no offers have yet been made. Mahrez, who managed six goals and three assists in the top flight last season, has three years left to run on the £100,000-a-week deal that he penned last year. I know it's probably just paper talk/click-bait but 'furious' I'm just finding the whole situation funny now,
AKCJ Posted 8 July 2017 Posted 8 July 2017 If he doesnt think he's worth 50m then he isn't good enough to be the main man at a big club, it's simple.
I am an Ostrich Posted 8 July 2017 Posted 8 July 2017 We could send out on a season long loan to Burton Albion......
Guest Cujek Posted 8 July 2017 Posted 8 July 2017 55 minutes ago, Almo-Fox said: Mahrez is not linked with lemar in his potential transfer to arsenal aW strategy is to secure most positions one by one After securing lacazette means pushing giroud to the exit and now comes lemar as hisa target for a CM position replacing the long injured santi cazorla and ryad mahrez is his target as a winner by changing formation from343 to 4231 The ase of mahrez is a simple one is the price tag and no by clause is valued at 50 Mahrez is world class above leicester players ( besides kasper and Ben Chilwell the next marcelo ) so no benefit to keep him from his move as he is now a target by some leicester fans , some former LCFC players ( eg Matt Eliot ) to destroy and make his staying difficult I see arsenal coming with with a bid close to 50 m Mahrez is staying professional as demanded by Craig Shakespeare Footbal is a nice story Now mahrez and next ben Chilwell ( move to real Madrid ) Can i have some of your drugs please?
dedlock Posted 8 July 2017 Posted 8 July 2017 " According to the Mirror " Mahrez is unhappy. Says it all, some journalistic invention unless they have a hotline to RM's emotions.
Bazly Posted 8 July 2017 Posted 8 July 2017 Report is Mahrez is furious LC are blocking his cut price deal with the Arse. Though shit earning £100k a week regardless of performance. Report card says must try better to justify the £50mn price tag.

Blimey, I feel so sorry for us. Thats what he needs to do if he wants to force a move

So it's ok then, that he took the greedy option, rather than taking the more honest approach that would have left him in control of his destiny now?
Dan Posted 8 July 2017 Posted 8 July 2017 I honestly think he plays in that opener at the Emirates in blue.

I honestly don't give a shit about what mahrez has done for himself, that's not my point, what I'm saying is we've managed to tie a wantaway player down for our benefit, and by benefit I mean we get maximum dollar for him

FoxesFan94 Posted 8 July 2017 Posted 8 July 2017 Just saw Mahrez sitting in the crowd at centre court at Wimbledon. Looked pretty bored tbh ha
sk3since03 Posted 8 July 2017 Posted 8 July 2017 Riyad at centre court, Wimbledon! Probably set up camp outside the Emirates for the night
Guest Col city fan Posted 8 July 2017 Posted 8 July 2017 I don't get why so many people would be happy to have a player back in the first team next season, when he has made it clear he does not want to be here and there seems to be no indication that he's changed his mind, regrets what he's said etc. Indeed, all the reports are that he's getting peed off the longer he's staying here. Is it more important to people to have players at the club who really want to play for us, or very good players, when they don't?

Not for me, its clear he doesn't want to be here so let him go, cant bear the thought of him going missing for another season
Wortho Posted 8 July 2017 Posted 8 July 2017 I think that Mahrez and DD will have brilliant seasons. Back to normal!!
The Horse's Mouth Posted 8 July 2017 Posted 8 July 2017 He's at Wimbledon, Arsenal medical confirmed?

Thank goodness we have King, James, Okazaki, Benalouane and Musa, who are so loyal and will soften the blow if Mahrez leaves
