The fact that I didn’t notice that this is Albrighton is crazy

[ethancampbell]

Mahrez should be considered a streets won’t forget player, because watching him play was such a divine experience. His control of the ball was sublime, his dribbling was incisive and unpredictable, he shot the ball like a rocket yet with such calculated precision and he was a defenders worst nightmare

[Mubashir_AK]

His assist for Vardy against Man City where he played it through first time might be my favourite through ball of all time.

[G-MAN-fu]

Mahrez is gonna do down as one of the most underrated ballers of our generation

Best skillfull player i have seen at Lcfc

Mahrez is one of the GOATS of football leave alone Prem. To win the premier league with Leicester City and to finish as the 2nd/3rd highest scorer with most assists all being as a right midfielder is incredible. Nobody could ever match the feat of Mahrez x Vardy for many years to come. Incredible season that was. They were 4000/1 to win the prem.

Zidane, Bergkamp, Berbatov, Ronaldinho

That one touch pass assist to vardy had me

"Is part of the game, innit?"

- OG Mahrez

[kabirahmed]

That is actually true he actually had the best first touch ever and it was like every time his first touch was just spot on and specially how he takes the ball on the half is like the toughest stuff.

[BroPro]

Can the guys in the comments get his point? He is praising Mahrez as a footballer. Yeah and at his time he was.

[ahmaddanialad]

When I first saw him for Leicester my first thought is Adel Taarabt. Mahrez was so fresh to see after Taarabt era

[thereal_markymark]

Fellaini’s first touch with his chest was immaculate

[matthewfarrow]

People say watching city is boring but I genuinely used to tune into so many games because of this guy

[please-wake-up-now]

Mahrez really had that magic, didn’t he? Like every touch was a work of art. Can't believe Albrighton has such a cool story about him. Makes me wanna rewatch some classic Leicester matches! 🎨⚽️

[willholliday]

Listening to players talk about each really shows who has the magic and who just gets to witness it.

[unknownplayer]

Berba for utd and spurs was class ... not the most efficient player but the most fun to watch

[RVFFICA]

Just shows talent is always there. It's just unrecognised.

[slayer]

He is one of those most skilful and fancy player ever ❤
