StriderHiryu Posted 21 May 2018 Share Posted 21 May 2018 If we did end up losing Mahrez ,how about taking a look at Alireza Jahanbaksh, an Iranian winger playing in the Eredivise? 21 goals and 12 assists this season, playing on the right wing but cutting in. The Dutch league is inconsistent. You've had the likes of Bergkamp, Van Nistelrooy, Van Persie but also the likes of Depay, Klassen and Alfonso Alves. Anyway if we lose Mahrez we'd need to replace both goals and assists, and this guy got a ton of him this season. Napoli are supposedly also interested, but it's hard to beat the wages of the Premier League! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FerrisBueller Posted 21 May 2018 Share Posted 21 May 2018 I'd love Leon Bailey, looks class, off the back of a decent season in the WunderBunder, top pals with Wilf as well. Looks like he's destined for the 'big boys' though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be a belter of a signing, no idea how serious it is though. Perfect partner for N'didi IMO. Loads of energy and strength but can also burst forward too. Is going to get better and better too I think. Very doubtful Chelsea would sell him and I actually think he will be ahead of players like Drinkwater and Barkley next season for them, but a season long loan deal might still be an option if they go out and start spending again! Would be a great signing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SB87_LCFC Posted 21 May 2018 Share Posted 21 May 2018 (edited) i may Sound a little crazy saying this, but if we’re gonna play with the big boys at the top end I think we’ve gotta be looking at players like John Stones and Luke Shaw in a similar way to Barkley and Drinkwater they are English talent sitting and wasting away at some of the bigger prem clubs. They have a chance to move somewhere like Leicester to play consistent football and be a part of something that could be really big.....I seem to remember when Man City started throwing their money about people’s eyebrows were raised at the signings of Yaya and David Silva (different players all together to the two I’ve said I know) but effectively could be cornerstones (see what I did lol) of a new look City. Were not short of a few quid anyway, £128m from finishing 9th, plus whatever we have left from Champions League last year, plus player sales (Ulloa, Slimani, Musa, eventually Mahrez) with those two and a playmaker I think we’d be much improved especially with Pereira in already.

Dan LCFC Posted 22 May 2018 Share Posted 22 May 2018 Always thought Yarmolenko would've been a great Mahrez replacement. Won't get him now though. I think should the Mahrez move come off we need to go for Ziyech. If he really is as good as people say he is he's probably the nearest we'll get to Mahrez. I'd imagine we'll get beaten to him but you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with the sentiment but think Stones would likely have better offers from say Arsenal. I don't think Shaw's impossible. Unlikely, but not impossible.

Another good candidate would be Ghoddos, since he slightly proved what he's capable of against Arsenal and other teams in Europe. (His playstyle fits Leicester's and NT more so than Jahanbakhsh IMO) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine we'll get beaten to him but you never know. Ziyech is class but he's more of a CM/AM than a wide forward. I suppose in a system with very attacking full backs that might be ok but as a direct replacement for Mahrez he is a different player. He will score goals and create though, was yearning for Ziyech as well as Mahrez a few seasons ago, would have been lethal. The geezer I can't spell from Basel is who I hope we go all out for, if we get Roberts as well then we've got Roberts and Diabate for the right wing and then Elyonoussi, Albrighton and Gray on the left with the potential for a couple to play CAM if needs be. I'm not sure any of these options will bring us what Mahrez has done but it would be a positive start. If Thorgan Hazard was attainable then he'd also be hugely appreciated, but I think we'll be getting Roberts in that position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
