Mahrez NOW!!!!!
Godwin1
Very well-known
Won't lie I'd like to get him in quick, think he'd slot in better than Lemar for the first season at least. Then we can go big on a CM.

Use lolcott to get Mahrez. Think Leicester would be happy with that deal. Unless lolcott goes overboard with his wage demand.

but Holding’s hair transplant was painless
This transfer would make a huge amount of sense provided that we had a front 4. I'd be prepared to go back to a 4-2-3-1 if ot meant a front 4 of Mahrez, Sanchez, Özil and Lacazette.

I agree - to some extent, but we would be defensively exposed. Especially with two fullbacks flying forward on any given opportunity.

Not if they were taught to not overlap as much. I know wenger would never change that strategy tho.

Using Walcott in that deal would be a no-brainer for me. However, Theo would have to be willing to go there (doubtful) and Wenger would have to give up on one of the longest serving players (doubtful yet again).

Best go inform them on foxestalk, GoonerBead.
I'm betting we get him for 35.

Buy Riyad Mahrez NOW and forget about Lemar. Sure...he's a talented young player and had a great season at Ligue 1 and the CL, but he plays at an inferior league compared to the EPL, it is unknown whether he will make it, and he costs 50% more than a proven EPL player like Mahrez. Why take such a huge risk? To me this is a no brainer. I'd rather we spend wisely instead of splashing cash around like crazy. If you are going tongo big then do it with a freakishly talented youngster like Mbappe.

Kinda agree. As much as I like Lemar he is risky at such a high fee compared to Mahrez.
If Mbappe is indeed 100% off the table, I hope we get Mahrez done and dusted as soon as possible.
Would be nice to get a talented CM as well. Should be doable cashwise as well as Mahrez is relatively cheap.

Think it will be easier to get rid of some dross if we do our business early.
- Look here fam, Lacazette and Mahrez are here now. You'll get zero minutes so if you want to play football you're going to have to find another team to do it in. Thanks for everything.

Agreed. Time to move on Theo Walcott, Mohammed Elneny, Mathieu Debuchy, Kieran Gibbs, Joel Campbell and Carl Jenkinson.

Mahrez and a CM on top of Lacazette and Kolasinac with keeping Özil and Sanchez and losing deadwoods like Walcott, Perez, Debuchy, Coquelin, Jenkinson, Campbell, ... would be the best transfer period EVER!!!

I think we need someone like Mahrez even in the 3-4-2-1, because both of our AMs in that formation are on the last year of their contracts and we also lack any quality back-up if both stay... Mahrez is better suited to that role compared to Lemar, and his playstyle has also a lot in common with Özil's and Sanchez'. He is ideal for the right price.

I think people don't quite realise how well suited someone as technical as Mahrez would suit our system and style of play. Not only that but how much better he'll do with service from our midfielders.

We need more players who are comfortable when in possession, especially in big matches against teams that press high and pin us back. Mahrez has that explosiveness and the dribbling skills that can make the difference in such games. I hope we sign him.
