At the end of the very day, as Thierry would say, it says something that Mahrez has publicly asked to leave and handed in a transfer request and the only club in talks is Roma.
Not really though. Most top teams have a decent player in that position. Agree he isn't the be all and end all but I would welcome the addition. Not my first choice though and I suspect that is what you mean... He isn't the first choice for any top team. Star at LCFC, squaddie anywhere else?At the end of the very day, as Thierry would say, it says something that Mahrez has publicly asked to leave and handed in a transfer request and the only club in talks is Roma.
Liverpool went for Salah instead, we want Lemar, City signed Silva, United want Peresic.Not really though. Most top teams have a decent player in that position.

Must be something about him that's putting clubs off, I like him btw.

then he'd be perfect for us - we'll soon cut him down to size in the EuropaI have a feeling it may be his attitude, though I have nothing that definitely points this out, just a feeling. Could be that the League title and PFA honour went to his head?

1. He's not that intelligent.
2. There are serious question marks regarding his ability to integrate within team structures.
3. There are also serious question marks regarding his work rate and commitment.
If you watched Leicester in their title winning season, Mahrez was almost divorced from the broader structures of the team. In other words, he was isolated. But his brilliant ability meant that that was of little consequence as he was able to break through just about every teams defense.
My point is that in a Leicester team with very little flair or individual quality, it becomes necessary to accommodate a player like that but how much does a team like Arsenal need Mahrez?
£29m cheapskates
I think they should, what difference does it really make to them. If they aren't deluded they would take it.If Roma were close at 30m and we came in at 35m are Leicester going to take the extra 5m that is the question.
Mahrez is a tough one, because he could easily absolutely flop. Similar to Taarabt and Ben Arfa in many ways. Very very skillful and talented but their mentaility is just poor.
I think Roma is a fantastic move for him, beautiful city, and I think he'd excel in the Italian league just like other skillful wingers like Salah and Gervinho have for Roma
It's his complete and utter lack of heart. The guy took the first half of last season off ffs. Why would anyone want to spend 40-50 million quid for a player with that in his DNA? He should have been hungrier than anyone coming off of a PFA award and the most improbably league title in history. Instead he looked like he couldn't be bothered until Ranieri was fired. Absolutely shameful. No club wants to commit massive money to a player like that. It's why we haven't seen Özil linked to anyone.Liverpool went for Salah instead, we want Lemar, City signed Silva, United want Peresic.
