Decent goal from our Riyad. 

 

As much as I want him to play vs Sunderland, I doubt he will because Algeria play Wednesday too.

 

Please bring him back in some form though, Nige. Pretty please.

a half fit riyad mahrez playing by himself would be more threatening to sunderland than us playing the diamond

Highlights of the first half.

Oh boy. That pass from Mahrez...

[benpicko]

Christ that pass and that goal

[Collymore]

I'm watching the game. Like everyone else in this thread, I'm pretending Mahrez is tearing up Germany.  They're playing ETHIOPA 

[ealingfox]

No Mahrez for Algeria

He'll blame Nige for this

 

You fvcking twat. I didn't stream the match because of this post even though I was looking forward to it and Riyad has been 

 

Why did you do that?

[Dan]

 

The first. Textbook Mahrez pass. The commentators were saying it was Brahimi as well

[Dan]

He was on the end of a tough tackle at 0-1 as well, kept him down for a minute, was fearing the worst.

[StanSP]

Why? It's only a bench space he'll be freeing up

[Guest ttfn]

What difference would it make?!

[benpicko]

Really want to know Pearson's justification for playing King instead of Mahrez at the top of the diamond

[Dan]

I just predict Pearson will quit heroin in the next fortnight so he might start playing him.

[Unabomber]

maybe pearson has rabies.

[ScouseFox]

at least if he was injured he'd have a genuine reason to not play him 

[Guest ttfn]

Maybe he rapes corpses. Seems like a legitimate reason to drop/unmatch somebody.

After all dropping is just the unmatching of the football world imo

[Torten]

Watching the game and I really do think Mahrez could walk into most teams in the Prem. Only good enough for our bench though. 

[Dan]

How wrong is it that Algeria are technically miles ahead of England.

[lgfualol]

You fvcking twat. I didn't stream the match because of this post even though I was looking forward to it and Riyad has been 

 

Why did you do that?

 

EITHER DID I! I just came on Foxestalk to a bunch of new posts. Shit didn't realise he started. I swear I read he wasn't starting.

[Dan]

Mahrez has legit goal ruled out. #AMF

[lgfualol]

I bet Nigel will watch these clips of Mahrez and be like 

 

"Hm, well he clearly isn't backtracking enough and that forward pass was unnecessary when he could have instead safely passed it back to the goalkeeper".

 

Seriously, Pearson is so very wrong not to play him. Especially not even against West Brom. 

[ealingfox]

Someone please remind why the theory about Pearson holding back wide/flair/forward players is bollocks.

 

It looks like Mahrez is going the same way as Gradel, N'Guessan, Waghorn, Marshall and Knockaert and Mahrez will undoubtedly prove to be the costliest.

 

Only Dyer has really improved under him.

[ScouseFox]

let's be fair nguessan, waghorn and marshall were awful for us more often than not, gradel was inconsistent but exciting but seemingly didn't fit, we hardly missed him. 

 

mahrez in on a complete different level, leaving him out is like ancelotti telling ronaldo to train with the kids or hodgson not picking sterling for his next england squad etc. he's our best player by miles.
