justfoxes Posted 31 January 2018 Share Posted 31 January 2018 (edited) Really thinking Riyad need to look at his advisors as this is the second time he’s Gone Awol from the club andbno move has happened leaving a very large egg on his face,last year he was reported camping out at an airport this year he seems to be here there and aevery Fooking where!! The guys that are filling his head with a so called super move to a super club need to back off he needs to find advisors that won’t Pi 55 off the owners the rest of the squad and the fans Riyad needs to stay put until he gets the green light that he’s been sold not go AWOL like a petulant child as his advisors are telling him too ! but we have a couple of hours to go till deadline day is over will he be on the move will his paperwork go in a few seconds too late who knows !! If Riyad wants to go he needs to wait til the summer as this move to Man City just smelled of desperation cover for sane whilst he’s out, but then when he’s back would Pep use him as a squad member or keep him on on the bench ?

what? Posted 31 January 2018 Share Posted 31 January 2018 "Understand that City never made even one bid for Mahrez, there were informal discussions, Leicester City made a proposal worth £95m this morning and City walked away. Their absolute “top valuation of player was £60m”, no more. And: Mahrez was a target for long-term position of wide player post-Sanchez not happening, not a short-term fix because of Sane’s ankle injury."

Popular Post MC Prussian Posted 31 January 2018 Popular Post Share Posted 31 January 2018 Glad we stood our ground with regards to Mahrez. I find it disgusting timing in the January transfer window to force a move a day before the deadline and with the Everton away match just a few hours away. He can sulk all he wants to - if he doesn't put in the effort, he'll pay the price. But I doubt it'll be the shit-stirrer the media are trying to make up, he'll get back to the squad for training and matches and it'll be forgotten. He's done it last summer, and it didn't disrupt the team chemistry at all. On the contrary, we're playing almost as good as two years ago. We don't need the money - whether he goes for £50m, £60m or £70m in the summer won't matter to the owners. It's a clear statement of intent that we won't let our most talented player in more than a decade leave at such a crucial point during a season where we're that close to 6th spot and doing so well in the FA Cup. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Shep Posted 31 January 2018 Share Posted 31 January 2018 Don’t care if he eventually leaves for less, we stood firm and showed we won’t be bullied, or if Man City did everything by the book then I’m still happy as it’s a big F you to all the London based media and pundits, you bunch of W~nk stains. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edingleyfox Posted 31 January 2018 Share Posted 31 January 2018 Pleased owners have stood firm on this. At least the bidding is nearer the mark at around £60 million.Just hope he settles again and does not get distracted as his value could drop rather than climb.

LestaAl Posted 31 January 2018 Share Posted 31 January 2018 (edited) His agent must be a dick to think this was the best way to engineer a big money move and am less impressed with Mahrez for listening. Still if gets his form back and apologises to the first team for being an idiot maybe we can get another 15 games from him before he leaves Edited 31 January 2018 by LestaAl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William Hill had much higher bet caps on the Mahrez market - cap of 300 quid on potential returns (equivalent to 300 quid bet cap at evens), resetting every 24 hours.

MC Prussian Posted 31 January 2018 Share Posted 31 January 2018 As others have already mentioned, the whole "Manchester City have approached Leicester City over Riyad Mahrez" was all but a smokescreen to test the water. No way could they afford to dish out another £80m to £90m (or more) in January, when they've already spent £57m on Laporte and £3.5m on Jack Harrison in a season that has seen them pay in the excess of £215m for Mendy, Walker, Silva, Ederson, Danilo and Douglas Luiz. Hello, FFP. I suppose they'll be back in the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
