There is a difference between "playing" better, and "being" better. Pedro is a good player whose form, on average, is better than it was last season. None of us need to be reminded that he is not alone in that. Pedro has not suddenly turned into Lionel Messi however. In terms of his individual qualities and attributes, he is the same player he always was.

By the way, I don't agree with you about Matic. I talked earlier about my list of players I would replace. Nemanja is at the top of it.

As for Mahrez, perhaps Antonio might get his best form out of him but there are a number of players I would prefer the club to target instead.

We should go for him. 
Don't let him go to Liverpool or something like that. 

Yeah he screw up the coach by playing crap, but so did Costa and Hazard. 

Get him! 

Poor comparison. Costa and Hazard had only good/great seasons before last season and have only had the 1 poor/average season. Mahrez is the opposite. He's only had 1 good/great season the rest have been average at best. 

No reason to buy him. We're not that desperate.

Good goal.

Just like Hazard that was crap last year and then appear at the end of the season.....

 

Yes, let's just keep pretending that Hazard didn't have previous seasons to fall back on. :lol:

Same situation as Mahrez. He had a previous season to fall back on. 

This season Mahrez just did the same thing as Costa, and Hazard. Didn't play for the manager no more.

Mahrez only had 1 good season, which was last term. Hazard had many good seasons before last. It's beyond me how you can even say the two are comparable.

Awesome let's get him. 

I still feel like he will revive under Conte and will be the player he was last year. 

The talent is there, like it was in Moses and Alonso, just need the manager to bring it out of him. And who better but Conte.

Where will he play though? We don't need another AM unless Will leaves.

The player he was in 15/16 is never returning. It's like Rooney and Drogba in 09/10 and Messi and Pirlo in 11/12 to name a few examples. They hit peak form for a year or so and everything they touch turns into gold. Messi scored 91 goals and provided 27 assists in 2012 I think. Never repeated it again and never will.

Mahrez is a better player than he's been this season as he's been poor, but he's not better than Pedro and Willian.

Not sure if we can even say Mahrez hit peak form last year. Last year was a freak year. Mahrez is an average player and one who will not hit decent numbers in a normal season.

Agree with the bolded part.

Average is very harsh.
