Give someone his #28 shirt.
What's Lemar got to do with Alexis? Thought we wanted a City player (say Aguero/Sterling) and big money on top of that?
It’s believed they’ll try to strike a deal to sign the Spaniard on loan with either an option or an obligation to buy at the end of the season.

Mahrez would have been major for us. He'd help us carve open those tight defenses and he'd create chances out of nowhere. He's also familiar with launching a very speedy striker into deadly counter attacks. He was there for the taking many times.Looking back, it was a odd decision to sign him. Wenger had already decided to play Alexis as 9 with Giroud as back up with Welbeck coming back sometime later. The real question should be why we didn't try to sign a winger like Mahrez after we failed with the Mkhitaryan approach?? It would've been a much better option than spending 17m on a player who Wenger clearly wasn't too keen on.
