Mahrez

[Feriol]

Mahrez has only one standout season, so his value probably isn't as much as some of the suggestions here. If he has another good season and proves himself in the champions league then he will.

We won't get anywhere like £75m until he's done the business in Europe or the international stage.

Spot on.

The "Mahrez to Arsenal for £37m, personal terms agreed" are resurfacing again.

Vardy said he never actually spoke to Arsenal or Wenger, which I'm fairly sure the media implied regularly had happened. In fact I think they reported he had been to Arsenal for a medical. So what's reported is often far from the truth.

Rob Tanner seems pretty certain he's staying.

These reports emanate from the Algerian French speaking newspaper, they offered no sources and were merely repeating reports from other papers, they apparently do this type of thing fairly often.

Riyad Mahrez talk cools - in an article that cools it so much they don't mention it apart from in the headline.

Doesn't mean his agent didn't.

It's all bullshit. LCFC have not given any permission so there have been no discussions. And...

[Feriol]

When the media hear of a 'big team' interested in a player from Leicester, they assume the big team will get what they want, and that there is no reason the player would choose to stay.

They were right with Kanté but Vardy proved it doesn't always have to be the case.

 

[Borderfox]

Doesn't mean his agent didn't.

Unfortunately that's the job of players agents. They are a pain in the arse, but no doubt they have secured the players the represent lots of money, as they line their own pockets from clubs, who for some reason pay the agents fees something I find very odd. Surely payment should be made by the player they represent after all they employ the agent.

Anyone looking to panic can check the LCFC fb page, Mahrez (or Football Manager logo) have been cropped out of the cover photo.

Edit- not cropped as it's a different photo. But he's not there.

But they left Kante in, who took Chelsea's 30 pieces of silver.

 

[harrowfox]

Fuchs must be going too based on this.

Probably been there long enough to want to come back.

 

[SwedeFox]

Ornstein is a pretty trustworthy when it comes to Arsenal stories from what I've heard

 

[bocadillo]

Didn't Riyad once think City were a Rugby club? He's a bit confused about cricket too:

 

[Blaarev]

Sigh....

Great player, instrumental to our success last year.

In a perfect world (remember we've already had a season of that) he stays and sets Europe alight.

Should his heart not be up for the fight again this year, we have eager understudies perhaps not at his standard, yet.
