As good as signed

Hopefully he's better than the 1st french man signed by Pearson

Mahrez?

I'd say that Nigel's French signings are improving exponentially, so my that logic this fellow should be Champion's League standard.

I'm not sure Alan Young's blood pressure will take the stress of another French winger. It took him 6 games to start laying into Knocky so Mahrez will probably get about 3 games at most

Apparently this may now be about to go through - according to Sky anyway. But is this evening's game too early for him?

Not sure what went wrong here but i doubt he'll be signed in time for tonight!

From what I understand he has agreed personel terms but the 2 clubs haven't agreed yet

he also wanted to play for Le Harve one last time but we've put a block on that one

He wouldn't be eligible to play tonight even if the deal goes through today.

Apparently things are moving quite fast and the deal looks likely to go through iminently.

The Phillips deal is apparently going to be resolved in the next 24 hours also. Well, at least it's been reported that he'll sign for a Championship club ....

This stalled a bit after the original reports!

His name is Riyad and we're dancing in the stands...

Deal has fallen through according to French football news. Le Havre and Leicester were unable to agree on bonuses and he has gone back to France today.

I'm hoping something can be worked out but it looks as if it's not going through at the mo

Hmmm just reading different reports, it's pretty unclear still. Get French Football News say the deal is dead, the mercury says it's still alive....
