“The best player” – some Man City fans say “brilliant” £43.2m man was “excellent”

Manchester City enjoyed a 5-0 win over Burnley on Saturday afternoon and Riyad Mahrez was named Man of the Match after scoring a hat-trick. The 29-year-old had come under criticism for his lack of consistency this season, but he impressed at the Etihad Stadium and silenced his detractors.

Mahrez reminded City fans why the club acquired him. Dude had gotten so much grief, some of it deserved, from the fan base. He responded. #MCFC #ManCity #ManchesterCity #sunday pic.
