If you block players like this, they won't be motivated to play. Also, buyout clauses ^^ (not sure who has them) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend_in_blue Posted 9 May 2017 Share Posted 9 May 2017 Turns in a half decent performance, gets in the BBC's team of the week when overshadowed by Albrighton yet again and then asks to leave. Great timing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orangecity23 Posted 9 May 2017 Share Posted 9 May 2017 Wants to compete for Silverware ... Spurs linked. Something doesn't add up there, why go to a club that has only won 2 league cups (1 of which should have been ours anyway) in the last 20 years? Better off playing for a club with a winning mentality, like Leicester City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammo Posted 9 May 2017 Share Posted 9 May 2017 Chelsea love us, don't they? We'll give 'em Mahrez for Willian and a bit of pocket money. Hate to see him join Arsenal or Spurs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxes21 Posted 9 May 2017 Share Posted 9 May 2017 Being able to play Albrighton RW might soften the blow. If we have to replace Mahrez, I'd like a left footed LM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightySystem Posted 9 May 2017 Share Posted 9 May 2017 I don't understand why he would bother with a verbal agreement when he could have just put a release clause in the contract that he signed last summer? The club could have put it at £30 million which would only be active after the season ends and Mahrez still gets his money from the new contract. This way the club will still gain a chunk of money from his sale and Mahrez can be confident that a club will activate the clause. Seems a bit more certain then just having an agreement with the manager/owner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxtillidrop Posted 9 May 2017 Share Posted 9 May 2017 There is no quote in the article from the man himself - Mahrez. He is Leicester through and through - I really wouldn't believe everything in the papers. Percy seems to be the only reliable journo when it comes to writing about LCFC.

Thracian Posted 9 May 2017 Share Posted 9 May 2017 If Ranieri genuinely made an agreement and that agreement doesn't mean his going at less than reasonable market value I think we're no less bound to honour it than if Ranieri were here. Trust is as important in football as anywhere else I know statements like "My Word Is My Bond" are a bit old fashioned and are something I'd rarely rely on from anyone outside of family that doesn't mean we should renege on our word and more especially now that Mahrez has contributed plenty by way of goals and assists towards saving our season. Furthermore we've had ample time to research potential alternatives and therefore make best use of any money we get for the man. Whatever his decision - stay or go - I'd wish him the best simply for what he's done for us and the way he's done it on the football field because I seriously doubt we'd have achieved as much without him. Not that I'm necessarily convinced leaving would be his best option apart from the money because there's lots of excitement left in Leicester yet as evidenced by this latest strange season, which didn't see Mahrez nearly as impressive as in our title season, for whatever reasons. . Could we possibly find an alternative to improve on Mahrez this season? Frankly I doubt it - and certainly not from Gray at this early stage of his career (even if he stays as a squad member) but we might still get a valuable contributor. . However, it won't be easy. Mahrez has made 100 appearances, scored 27 goals, has 17 official assists and is reported as making 40 "big" chances. His shooting is 41% on target and he's supposedly never made an error at Leicester which resulted in a goal. Those are impressive statistics for a winger, Basically he scores a goal every four games, records an assist every five games and creates significant scoring opportunities - however those are defined - on 40% of his outings. Sherdan Shaqiri at Stoke, in comparison, has scored at roughly a goal every (just over) five games over his career with Basel, Bayern Munich and Stoke. And Willian has scored at roughly one goal every (just under) five games for his main clubs Chelsea and Shaktarl. So we would need to spend wisely!

Each of those players has a special connection with the club - they have done the hard mileage on the pitch to achieve a miracle. Frankly I'd be disappointed if Mahrez walked - we are on to something special under Shakey and I'm sure that both Riyad and Kasper are smart enough to realise this - the form table doesn't lie.

floz Posted 9 May 2017 Share Posted 9 May 2017 £30m? I don't think so. Last Summer saw Bolasie move for £25m. Mahrez is at least twice the player, so start your bidding at £50m. We got short changed for Kante and as Mahrez has no clause and we don't need to sell then, if he wants to go, it should be for top dollar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oxford blue Posted 9 May 2017 Share Posted 9 May 2017 If he leaves, could he take Slimani with him (as Mahrez was probably an important reason why he signed)? I think the team could even be strengthened by Mahrez leaving - Gray could start regularly and more funds for defensive replacements. He has only shown fleeting glimpses of what he is capable of this season; the time may have come for him to leave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
