Anybody seeing these rumours?
Not getting my hopes up as it's Arsenal, but looks like there may be something in this.
Mahrez

Can't see this happening, would make too much sense.

Although his agents denied it, the media must need some excitement, it's being posted everywhere. If it happens even though we may not get our striker I think we will be there or there abouts barring injury melt downs come the end of the season.

Can't understand why ppl think Mahrez is going to be the answer to any of our problems. He is the closest to Pires's style in the game; but that meant being able to pass to players running behind the opposition. This why a Mahrez/Vardy combination worked so well at Leicester. We don't have a striker like Vardy who can run behind the opposition. So someone please explain how he would suit us?

Think people are assuming signing Mahrez, or someone similar, would mean Alexis would be tried up front again, J99. Maybe even Walcott would get another crack of the whip... then again, maybe not...

He would be a cracking signing if true. He glides past players with ease lime Pires used.to do and can score goals with ease. I'd have.him on the left with Sanchez on the right or just swap them around during the game.
Mahrez - Ozil - Sanchez
-------------Giroud
We would have Iwobi, Oxlade, Walcott and Campbell as cover.

Rvp played for us when we knew he was United bound, that doesn't mean much.
I doubt the move will happen though

Alexis played behind the striker at Udinese. A no.10. Ozil is also a no.10. And so is Mahrez.
Giroud is nothing more than a no.10, with his flicks. and touches.
So who is our no.9?
Its fecking stupid. We have gone through, Arshavin, Gervinho, Podolski, Walcott, Oxlade, Ramsey, Wilshere, Alexis, Ozil, Santi, Welbeck, Iwobi, Gnabry, Ryo, Campbell wide since RVP left. Yet somehow they have all been labelled rubbish.
Someone explain why Mahrez would make a difference. I think at some point you have admit the problem might the useless striker they have all played behind! Thats what we need not another fecking winger being set up to fail!

We're still short of quality at RW Jenius and that's where Mahrez would be utilised.
Would Giroud still hold the team back - yes. He needs replacing regardless of who comes in to other positions as he's an average player with sheet movement.
All that said this Mahrez rumour is BS no doubt anyway.
