Cheers, seen something on twitter about an apparent spat in training this morning but guess that’s all either unconfirmed/ bollocks or both.

dylanlegend Posted 31 January 2018 Share Posted 31 January 2018 People saying Mahrez is worth this that the other. The reason Van Dijk went for 75mill was because Liverpool desperately need a decent centre back. Attacking players aren't any more premium as there are arguably more choice. For all the £142m Countinho (which is crazy and Barca have massively overspent) there is a 35m Salah or a 55m Aubamayeng Not many players have gone for more than £60m and I don't get the feeling Man City are 'desperate' for Mahrez like Liverpool were for a CB or Barcelona were for a big name replacement for Neymar. 70m is therefore a good price. I wouldn't take any less. He wants to leave. It would be nice to get 100m for him but we won't. He's helped us stay up this year. We should let him have his move. He owes us nothing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if you're really honest with yourself if mahrez wasn't Algerian you wouldn't be saying that. i said i would sell vardy for 40+ million because of his age, nationality doesn't have anything to do with that. i'm not mad at him for forcing a move to man city, there is no love lost between him and the owners. the owners are wanting to squeez as much money as possible and riyad is trying his hardest to push for a move. both looking for their best interest Edited 31 January 2018 by the fox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Man City are going to be pulling his trousers down tonight he needs to keep his private parts covered up to avoid a double humiliation. With the amount of crap he’s been through with our club it’s probably only the shit staines that are holding them together! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manwell Pablo Posted 31 January 2018 Share Posted 31 January 2018 Can see this happening at 65 million now.

Monsell1976 Posted 31 January 2018 Share Posted 31 January 2018 I get the impression that Dennis wise is liking us losing our best player, smug little bastard, don’t think he likes us after his time here, and the controversy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeGuy Posted 31 January 2018 Share Posted 31 January 2018 16 minutes ago, ARTY_FOX said: Doesn't mean he couldn't have said something to the club sooner so we had stuff in place. He didn't even need to put this second request in (provided he really has) he could have just said his old one still stood at the start of the window Mate, he wants to go and has never hidden it. It might be bitter to swallow but he always played with an open hand. Since last summer it was clear that if an adequate offer come he'd be off, be it in january or next summer. Do you really think it came out of the blue or the scouting team didn't start to work on it since last may? The transfer request is just a formal thing, I don't get why people get so worked up about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted 31 January 2018 Share Posted 31 January 2018 13 minutes ago, the fox said: thing is, he is a 120 million player in todays football, but playing for leicester, having a poor season like last year, being algerian and wanting to leave will bring the price down Aubamayang just went for £56m. Mkrytarian was valued at £30m. It's not all Coutinho money. We won't get anything like that sort of money. I'm minded to think we should let him go for £60-70m, perhaps with add ons. We all knew this day would come and this is a great opportunity for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They want to sell in line with the current market. If van dijk is 75 million and laporte is 57 million. Morata for some unknown reason was what 70? Why should we settle for that for mahrez.

Finn Claw II Posted 31 January 2018 Share Posted 31 January 2018 I get annoyed at people at work all the time, let's or blow that story up. i mean if a reporter asks 'is it professional to not train for the Everton game and try and force a move' most players would answer 'no' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm honestly not sure this is made up. He didn't turn up to training yesterday of his own accord - that's a hissy fit. I also think there could be some mud thrown this afternoon.

It's not that he wants to go that's annoyed the people it's annoyed. It's not the fact he's handed in a formal request. It's the timing of it all. If he was the desperate to leave why would he have handed in his request 24 hours before the window closes? He's been advised really really poorly.
