He is behind Raheem Sterling, Bernardo Silva and Leroy Sane in the pecking order, but is likely to feature against Newport County in the FA Cup fifth-round on Saturday, which is live on talkSPORT.When asked about Mahrezs lack of first-team action, City boss Guardiola said: I have a reason. I am the reason. He is not absolutely guilty or he doesnt feel any special reason why.I am sad because he is training incredibly, he is an incredibly talented player but in this moment we have five strikers – for example in the last games Leroy hasnt played.

Guardiola added: I am unfair in the fact that if he had played the minutes that the others had played he would have been in the top level like the players who are playing.Its not easy for one guy who does not play regularly to come in and play at a high, high level.He has a level but if we give him five or six games in a row playing he is going to play at the level of Sterling or Bernardo or the players who play. In two months when we played four or five games in a row he was incredible, outstanding.I dont have any doubts about his quality, just to keep going, not complain too much, move forward and fight more and more and more, his time is coming.Its coming and Im pretty sure he is going to play good.
