Leicester boss Claudio Ranieri insists he would not stop forward Riyad Mahrez, 25, leaving for one of Europe's top clubs such as Barcelona or Real Madrid.(Daily Mirror) Ranieri "stays up all night" studying his Premier League title rivals, says Leicester striker Jamie Vardy. (Talksport)
Means that if he want's to leave and they meet our asking price, he can go - not that he is for sale. CR said the same thing at the beginning of the season that he won't force players to stay with us so is not really new news.
... the Press love to scaremonger ... Claudio's comments were more about players generally but answered on a question about Mahrez specifically... Have to agree wholeheartedly with him ... Once again he showed his tactical nous yesterday... Schlupp down the left and Mahrez let free in the middle made all the difference... Forza Claudio !
Can you repost in english please or is just me that can't understand it. Think I've now worked it out, should read "Schlupp off the ball ..."
Schlupp still does not fill me with confidence on the wing, but benefit of the doubt it being his first game back and like FF said, it realeased Mahrez down the middle.
