Manchester City forward, Riyad Mahrez has come out to say that the club’s mentality means they will not rest on their laurels this season. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, after the final day scare in the Premier League title race last season, it is clear that him and his teammates are aware of the competition in the EPL and they will do everything to keep winning trophies.
Mahrez added that City players will go 100 per cent from the beginning of the season because they can take no chances.
His words, “We really, really want to win again,”
“When the season starts, we want to go again. That’s the big motivation. We never ever think, oh, it’s going to be easy this year, or we can go a bit easy.”
“No, we go 100 per cent from the beginning, because we want to win and we are built with this mentality. On the last day, against Aston Villa, I was just thinking, ‘F***ing hell, what are we doing here?’ We’re playing at home and we’re losing 2-0 against Villa.”
“Sometimes you don’t feel good in a game, I didn’t that day, and some other people came in and helped us to win – that’s what our team is about.”
“I think what we’ve done in the last four [or] five years is already amazing,”
“It would be very good to keep going and to try to break any records. The Champions League is very… details, you know? Last year, we deserved to go in the final and we didn’t. But I think we will be there again this season.”
