Hey Saul. Mahrez is the reason we're top. He's being picked on enough now. Yes we broke our transfer record for him. Yes he refuses to adapt to Pep's system. Yes he took the penalty away from Jesus and missed it in what would have been points off our main rival and also kill the ghost of us not winning at Anfield since WWII. Yes we chased him for two windows. Yes he's scored against shitty clubs.
But at least he doesn't whinge.
I think behind the scenes he does whinge.
'It's so important for him. Firstly, for the team,' said Guardiola.
'He has to be ready and positive - "OK, my time is going to come, the time is going to come" - because there are a lot of games.
'I don't have any doubts about his quality and always his mentality is aggressive.
'But he has to understand where he is and where he is, is at a team who scored 100 points (last season) and in every single game fight and run and play.
'And the people in front are Leroy (Sane) - last season one of the most important players that we had - Bernardo (Silva), the best player in the league, and Raheem (Sterling).'
