New ex-players (and managers) thread

Mahrez makes his debut for Man City today in the Community Shield.

Think they might also be playing him as a number 10, as Sane, B.Silva and Aguero all start too. So either Silva or Mahrez will be central role.

He looks to be playing wide right.

To me it looks like they’re playing him as a number 26

We need one of those.

Riyad, you’ve won bigger trophies with little old Leicester.

 

[ThaiSweetChilli]

I'd love us to win the PL.
And them finish second.
What are the odds on that?

I'd rather us win the PL and them to finish 18th

Stringer & Piper. The ****ing dream team. ****ing hell, just when you think it can't get any worse. Cringing embarrassment.

I like Elliot but I ****ing hate it when someone asks him a question and he makes that hesitant groaning noise as though it's a terribly complex issue that needs serious thought

That’s usually his reflex when the right answer is “don’t be so ****ing stupid”.

I’d have given you massive odds on Ben Hamer starting the season as first-choice in the Premier League in 2018.

And Kante just puts one past Hamer to give Chelsea the lead.

Jeff Schlupp has also put Palace ahead and sounded like a decent strike.

Useless youth team graduate.

Saw it, was a belter, very muscular, very instinctive, no time to give it much thought. Very Jeffery.

He's not too bad when he doesn't have to think. It's the thinking that turns everything to shit.

could he play with headphones in and be told to just sing along all game and react the the ball?

Pretty sure I saw Peltier today for Cardiff too.

Always struck me as a “good championship but not quite premier league” player.
