Coutinho is going. If Mahrez is the best we can do then our season is as good as finished and it shows that as a club we lack ambition because we always settle for mediocrity.

Wow Dennis, buying the player of the year from 2 years ago shortly after paying for VVD, Keita and Salah shows mediocrity and lack of ambition?

Perhaps you can critique Mahrez as a player instead of preemptively trashing the club with false assertions.

I personally think Mahrez is a very good player.

{Ed002's Note - There are options but if players are not available the club should not make a knee jerk buy.}

Mahrez is very classy but Coutinho does it far more consistently and offers that little bit extra from free kicks and creatively. Mahrez would do well in a situation where he wouldn't be the central focus of the squad. In this case we are replacing arguably our most important player and definitely the most valuable. Lemar would be my choice, hands down, but I would prefer to keep Coutinho until the summer and see what we do in the Champions League.

Agree completely amerigo, it just baffles me as to how some posters can deny Mahrez’s quality without actually telling us what he does so poorly? I’d like him at Liverpool, I too would prefer Lemar but I think Mahrez would do an admirable job in the red shirt. After the recent windows I think we have to trust be club will do what’s best.

We should be looking elsewhere for a replacement if we harbour any thoughts on progressing and becoming successful.

Mahrez is a very inconsistent right winger, and specifically a winger that doesn’t have electric pace, he lacks the passing ability and the intelligence to replace Coutinho in the number ten role and you would not want him in a midfield three as his work rate is far worse than Coutinho, he certainly has been very mediocre bar one freak season, which is no measure with which to judge him (remember Charlie Adam and his £10m corners? ), he’s a match of the day highlights reel player at best and smacks of s knee jerk reaction. If we sign him you can mark him along with Aquilani, Carroll, Markovic, Balotelli Etc as substandard knee jerk reactions to selling top class players.

Coutinho has only played the 10 role 8 times this season in 22 games. It's not like Klopp isn't known for playing people of out their traditional positions either (e. g. Firmino at striker, Wijnaldum and Ox in midfield, Milner at LB, Henderson as a 6, etc. ) .

Not saying we should or would or have any interest in Mahrez, but where he plays now and where Klopp might see use for him aren't exactly the same thing.

I'd rather take Marc Albrighton 😂 at least his attitude is exemplary. Plus he actually plays on the left or in attacking midfield, is a set piece specialist, works hard defensively, and scores the odd goal.

He's vastly under rated, and miles better than Mahrez. Maybe he should have a bad attitude and bleach his hair so the media take more notice of him and the fact that he is usually involved in the build up every Leicester goal, but can also whip in a deadly cross or play a killer pass in behind. He'd be perfect for whipping crosses in to the back post for Mahrez. Few publicity stunts might get him noticed, because consistently good performances sure as hell don't nowadays.

He's not Coutinho quality, but at least he plays in the same position, has the right mentality, and is a consistent performer. 2 goals and 6 assists this season. That's a better return than £90m Lemar, and Albrighton has to cross for Vardy instead of Falcao! Massively under rated player is Albrighton, and I'd happily take him to play in Coutinho's position in the team. He's certainly better than the likes of Mahrez, Meyer and Draxler (save us, dear god) .
