Sparkling since the resumption of the European championships, the Algerian international, Riyad Mahrez, is on cloud nine. Returning to his best level, the captain of the Algerian team is on a grand dynamic with his Mancunian club.
Indeed, the Manchester City winger is the most decisive Algerian player of this start to the year 2023. Thus, managing to score 7 goals and deliver 3 assists, Mahrez returns to good performance after a less brilliant period. .
Returning to the latter, the Fennec gave an interview to the media group “BeIN Sports” to explain the contrast between these two periods.
“I will say that I was not mentally well during the previous period. It wasn’t necessarily the problems that impacted my performance, but the mind wasn’t there. he said in response to a question about the level jump he displayed.
Indeed, the Algerian international, Riyad Mahrez, seemed far from his level. Struggling to be decisive, Mahrez chained neutral performances. A very sad period for the Algerian star.
“I am aware that I had not delivered good performances before the World Cup. This has since changed. I continue to work to find my best level. Currently, I feel fine. he adds.
