gharperr Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 theres no point them selling him what so ever. if they can get 40mil for him in january they will get 40mil for him in summer. Potentially even more if he carries on producing semi-decent numbers. Not like his contract is about to run out 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently 6 assists for the season, level with Eriksen, Silva and De Bruyne. I miss him. Glad he's doing well though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sexbelowsound Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Leicester would be naive to sell in January. I think they'd look to take full advantage though in the Summer and if done correctly, unlike us, they'll reap the rewards for years to come. Lets not forget that their aim this season and for a good few seasons more will be to stay in the league first and foremost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not like hes vardy which is just on the huge positive side of variance for half a season and producing unsustainable numbers where everybody in the football world knows hes going to regress back to mediocre (and probably the same about michu). People in the footballing world were pretty impressed with mahrez last season (truth be told, i didnt have a clue who he was and its easy to say "i rated him last year" when hes playing like he is now) and they're even more impressed with him this season. I seriously dont see him getting sold for less than 20m even if he does regress a bit. so 40m now (random figure) with less chance of CL equity is probably worse than 20m in summer + greater CL equity and the added money through CL/coverage and ability to sign better players to establish yourself as top 6 side in future. The club is in 0 debt and i think the owners have quite a bit of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand your point from the clubs perspective, but if a big club come in for Mahrez, he is more likely to want to join them. That whole team is based on team spirit it's going to be as effective with an unhappy player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if he gets a horrific injury nobody will want to buy him. If his form declines hugely, then he will still be able to live off past glories for at least a couple of years at this point, before Leicester eventually decide to sell him, at which point they will still make a profit on him given the price they paid. I doubt a scandal would persuade them to sell him either - Adam Johnson is going on trial, charged with sexual assault of a minor, and Sunderland still play him most weeks. Short of murder, I don't know what he could do that would persuade them to sell him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is more to his game than people give him credit for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope they go home disappointed with no points I think I said a page or so back, Lukaku is on a lengthy scoring run himself, and will be up against a reserve centre back who has barely played any minutes in English football . . . I fancy him to bang in at least one. Think you've got a good shot at them this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I think both teams are not that great defensively. Could easily end 3-3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
