Riyad Mahrez

Whiteknighting

Grow up

 

[Slartibartfast]

having given it some thought, I can now see us playing 343 in big games to give us that stability.

However in home games where teams are just going to sit back, we can be more attacking. I can see us playing 4231 alongside Sanchez, Özil, Laca. Mahrez's ability to dribble and beat his man will be a huge improvement.

This is the only logical way I can see the point of his signing.

Thursday-Sunday games. You can't run Alexis/Lacazette/Özil out there every game. They will need some rest. Theoretically, you could rotate those 3 with Mahrez in Premier League games alone and give each one of them 28 or 29 starts while coming off the bench in most of the other games. Then you have the cup competitions on top of that. Of course you could do the same thing with Walcott, but Mahrez would seem to be a better option.

Honestly find it hilarious how so many people on here can nurture such hatred against people on twitter and even going all nuts if a post happens to find its way here.
If one does not believe in a certain guy so be it, no trouble in just ignoring a post but one cannot expect rumors of "twitter itks" not to show up on this forum when it's basically become a part of this forum's very existence.

I'm very aware what rights and wrongs people like AFCAmden and theArsenalHorse, David m or whatsover have produced over the last years but if I would have to draw a conclusion I'd rather ban the mirror, sun and many other tabloids who did **** up way more than those guys.
Yet they are all over the place.

Ultimately, there is no such source that has only produced articles that proved to be well-founded.
I guess even Ornstein has some posts one could argue about but he's basically more like confirming what is already all over town.
Clearly a nice guy to have but we would have little to chat about, if we would only post stuff coming from this guy.

It's just a matter of opinion really, and in a forum like this one has to be clear on many people having a different view on matters.
Just fair, if everyone is allowed to post what he/she considers relevant ?

It's common knowledge that he gets fixture news and injury news often correctly. That's the only reason he even has any credibility above Waynegooney. It's his transfer stuff that's bullshit. No need for whiteknighting some random attention whore on twitter if you ask me.

You'd think Özil agreeing to and signing extension in January, Benzema buying a house in North London among other gold nugget would make people take notice.

Superb posting.

How insignificant information is that anyway. **** me.

 

[GDeep™]

Not particularly. But looking at the above article and lately paying attention to what he writes he's not as bad as made out to be.

Nice to see you come over to the way of the Cross.

 

[Jury]

Any positive acknowledgement of Cross is hilarious. Forget how he's generally perceived--he's a ****ing comedian, period. He's merely an attention whore who works for The Mirror.

 

[Sniper Mik]

I still remember how he constantly slagged off Wenger and Arsenal on social media and in his articles and then miraculously started kissing his butt when he needed to get his book out. Snivelling little weasel.

 

[Jury]

Not sure how people can slag off 'Dean'/Pablo, or whatever he goes by, yet give Credit to Cross, who makes a living out of his bullshit. Dean seems to be doing alright for himself away from Twitter, and gives his tuppence worth for free...

 

[Kingslayer]

Cross. Wanyama. No 1 target.

Nuff said.

Now back to Mahrez. I've been on the sauce (HP), and reckon this is on. The media just haven't caught up yet.

 

[Artisan]

John Cross works for the Mirror, as a sport "journalist" he's got a responsibility to peddle bs and pushout clickbait for his readers. His livelihood depends on it. May not be an honorable job exactly, but at least you can't say he's doing it just for the attention or trolling purpose like some.

If we are calling him out on his two facedness, then what about our golden boy (and AKB) Dean insinuating that people at Arsenal thought Wenger had mental illness back in 13 or 14 it was when we had bought **** all.

Anyway sorry about ****ting the thread up with this nonsense, you won't get further derailing from me in this thread until the next link appear.

Ffs i dont want him to be Alexis' replacement

#AFC have held talks with Leicester over a potential deal for Mahrez but are reluctant to pay anything over £35m [✍JPercyTelegraph]

Well, it's highly unlikely that anyone at Leicester City or with connections there would know Arsène Wenger's plans. The bit about being a replacement for Alexis is pure speculation (as may be the whole thing).

Don't see the tweet

 

[Sanchez11]

Its a load of bolex how is mahrez going to replace sanchez different positions!!

 

[Ceballinhos]

Don't see the tweet

It's from his article on Ihenacho to LFC

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

John Percy said that when we are chasing Lacazette he say we interested in Mahrez but we don't want to pay more then 35M for him.

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

Mahrez, Özil and Sanchez will be good rotation for those two positions behind the striker in 3-4-2-1 system.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Leicester will be forced to sell for less because Mahrez handed transfer request i can see them sell for 40M pounds.
