Why aren't we after this guy? He'd be perfect for out right wing. I just read a report that his move to City is all but done. This is the guy I really need compared to the likes of Willian, etc. I know Willian works his bollocks off but in my opinion, he's not much of a game changer. Are we letting Mahrez go to City? The guy would be perfect for our RW.Sums it up really, moving for him almost makes too much sense.
My dream signing for the past two seasons. He makes some much sense. Should have been top of our list For last summer and this summerWhy aren't we after this guy? He'd be perfect for out right wing.

Really? I don’t see what he adds that you don’t already have with Sterling and Bernardo.Genuinely think Mahrez at City would be fantastic for us. I think Pep started testing Sterling down the middle a little last season and didn’t mind the end result, so he knows he doesn’t have to buy a ST but instead can just buy a forward and the system can remain fluid whoever you play.
Sterling is moving central.Really? I don’t see what he adds that you don’t already have with Sterling and Bernardo.
Yeah I’m a massive fan but honestly think Willian would be a better fit as he’s a playmaker winger hybrid, but I suspect we may be moving to a 442 diamond and it will be two midfielders coming in. I doubt we will sign Willian but I hope I’m wrong. But 442 diamond makes so much sense with SMS and Fred it will add to Pogba and Matic and allow us to go 433 as well. The diamond also best accommodates Sanchez pushing him up with Lukaku. The problem is our full backs with left side needing addressed and right back also although we have enough numbers but doubt the quality as Valencia refuses to go past a man in the final third nowadays.Why aren't we after this guy?

So he’ll sit on the bench behind Jesus and Aguero?Sterling is moving central.
Mahrez is betterMahrez or Willian though?
I know we were suprised with Sanchez but i think the club know Mahrez is already Citys hence the lack of rumoursMahrez or Willian though?
I probably agree with you there, although I do think Willian is fantastic. Mahrez is so tricky and has the feet to unlock static defences.Mahrez is better
Won't be surprised if he's ahead of those two.So he’ll sit on the bench behind Jesus and Aguero?
I'm guessing you're a City fan? Why do you guys want to get Mahrez when you already have Bernado. He looked promising towards the end of yhe season. It all seems to me like stacking attackers for the sake of it.Hope I'm wrong but I'm pretty meh on this
I think 4 CMs might be an overkill. I stand to be corrected but that's the way I feel. Also, I'm assuming that Pogba will be at the tip of the diamond. Honestly I'd rather have him to the left of midfield. I know we are close to signing Fred but I would personally love to have a very creative attacking player or a hybrid CM/AM (if you like) like a Draxler similar to what city have done with Silva and De Bruyne, to be on the other side of CMYeah I’m a massive fan but honestly think Willian would be a better fit as he’s a playmaker winger hybrid, but I suspect we may be moving to a 442 diamond and it will be two midfielders coming in.

Never say never mate. Think Sanchez. So long as the dotted lines aren't yet signed there is that glimmer of hope.I know we were suprised with Sanchez but i think the club know Mahrez is already Citys hence the lack of rumours
I have been saying for ages that Draxler would be great here. We could play a midfield of 3 (Matic,Pogba,Draxler) vs easy teams. He can play as No.10 if needed. Also, if we sell Martial, Draxler could cover Sanchez.I'm guessing you're a City fan? Why do you guys want to get Mahrez when you already have Bernado.

Yes, yes and yes...but only because he's injured all the time. Bale is better than Mahrez, the other two are notI rather sign Mahrez instead of William but...
Would you prefer Mahrez over Douglas Costa/Ousmane Dembele/Bale?
Dembele>Mahrez>WillianI rather sign Mahrez instead of William but...

Dembele>Mahrez>Willian
Given I don't see Dembele happening, Mahrez is the one I'd go for. Doesn't seem to have loads of injury problems like Bale either.
Dembele isn't better than Mahrez but he will go on to be miles better. I'd sign him based on natural talent whilst recognizing Mahrez being the better player presently (which is why he could be my next choice ).How is Dembele better tham MAhrez? Mahrez's title winning performance for Leicester is better than any season Demebele has had and he was much better this seeason.
I don't get it.
Dembeles decision making is not great and he has a long way to go. If Dembele played at any point he would never have been the best player in the EPL...
The only thing he has over Mahrez is being two footed and faster and perhaps better at taking pens but I don't think he's taken them regulalry since Rennes. Mahrez is pretty much better at everything else, especially knowing when to pass and making decisions.
I'd get it if you said he has more potential but at this present moment in time, I don't see how you can watch them both every week and come to that conclusion...
I think Mourinho is looking to sign William, mainly for his workrate.Sanchez is a player that we were not desperate for (as we had Martial and Rashford playing LW) but still stole him from City. Mahrez is a player that will tremendously improve our weakest position but we show no signs of being interested at all. Sometimes I just don't understand the thought process behind our transfer strategy. Maybe we are still looking to sign Bale.
Yeah we didn't even give it a shot. Instead we tried to play Martial on the right which everyone knew wouldn't work. Such a waste really. Ruined our whole season.I think Mourinho is looking to sign William, mainly for his workrate.
I never understood why Sanchez didn't play as RW... Martial and Rashford were having a good season rotating in the LW position.

Klopp hinted at our transfer 'strategy' in a recent interview. Marketing and marquee signings play a role apparently. So yeah, we might actually end up signing BaleSanchez is a player that we were not desperate for (as we had Martial and Rashford playing LW) but still stole him from City.

Aguero was benched for every big game last season except the ones Jesus was injured in irrc. Sterling played central against United, Spurs, etcSo he’ll sit on the bench behind Jesus and Aguero?
Since when did we have a set transfer budget? We're not Arsenal.Is Mahrez worth the 75 million ( add ons included ) that Leicester wants?
I mean he's talented, but is he worth almost half our transfer budget, especially with doubts over his mentality?
Sanchez has been terrible even when given undroppable status in his favourite spot. Playing him at RW would free up the left for another player but he'd probably be even worse out on the right. Signing Willian would be a decent move if a little underwhelming, Mahrez would be mint but he looks City bound.I think Mourinho is looking to sign William, mainly for his workrate.

Surely every team has a budget,no club has a bottomless pit if money, except the Oil clubs maybe.Since when did we have a set transfer budget? We're not Arsenal.
What do you mean? He's signed quite a variety of wide players across his career.You people have been watching Mourinho for over a decade and are surprised he would want Willian ahead of Mahrez?
