2015/16 PFA player of the year award winner Riyad Mahrez is undoubtedly one of the most talented players in the Premier League. However, he, like his Leicester City team-mate Jamie Vardy, has struggled to rediscover his best form this season.

A supremely talented dribbler and capable of making the extraordinary look ridiculously easy, Mahrez has shown glimpses of his immense skill in the Premier League so far, but is yet to consistently torment opposition defenders like how he did last season.

However, things are looking slightly promising for the Foxes as Mahrez seems to have struck up a good partnership with fellow Algerian striker Islam Slimani and Ranieri will be hoping that Mahrez shakes off his malaise and starts performing at the level he is capable of once again.

The video below shows why Mahrez deserved the PFA player of the year award last season.
