Feel for Madders though, he must be lonely

[UniFox21]

Absolutely brilliant news! They've both worked their socks off over summer and have improved no end since last year! Both very deserved. Feel for Maddison, but can see him getting a call up after more prem game time!

 

Edit - also adds bonus to us that coming and playing well for us can help get a call up into the senior England set up. Can only increase our stock

Hope both of them start on Tuesday!

[Guest Papasmurf]

Obviously trying to improve ticket sales. 

[Foxxed]

Great news for both. They've both worked so hard to improve since last season. Well deserved.

 

When was the last time a someone developed city academy when on to play for England?

Perhaps I’m the only person who thinks madders, whilst having bags of potential, has some way to go yet ......

 

plus gray and chillers were the best players for the U21 on Thursday .......

Fantastic news. Particularly with Chilwell- there's something hugely satisfying about an academy product getting the call-up.

 

Maddison's time will come before long too.

 

How great is it to have so many England players these days? Vardy, Drinkwater, Maguire, and now these 2.

Not the only one, no. He has huge talent but, just as Gray and Chillwell have, needs game time to learn when to use skill

[Tielemans63]

What a time to be a Leicester fan. We are hooj.

 

Would be amazing to see one or both of them make their England debut at the KP.

Exactly. Great potential, no need to rush him.

Huge congratulations to both. Chilwell well deserved.

Scary to think the time that has elapsed between. Here's hoping the next gap is shorter. Maybe Barnes if he keeps performing.

[Koke]

Gray and Chilwell have more top level experience than Madisson. Congrats to both. They have both worked very hard and have improved a great deal under Puel.

[urban.spaceman]

Might try and get a ticket now!!

[Haywood_6]

Brilliant news. Let's hope that they take their chances. 

[Foxhateram]

Wonder if they would still have got the call up if it wasn't at the KP?  

[Wasyls Pec Deck]

Excellent. I would be great if they both could start. Can’t see it though. 

 

If both had been at Spurs they would have been capped 2 years ago.

Surely Chilwell does, just to get him around the squad - especially with the absence of Shaw? I think Gray would too.
