nothing to do with his (questionable) fashion sense 🤣

I'm sorry, I totally disagree with that, to say Maddison has let us down more times than he's come up with goods is quite bizarre. I really don't get the hate for him, he was the first gifted player we've had talk to the media about us being a 'big club', he's a young lad, lots of money and will make mistakes so let's cut him some slack, himself, N'didi and tielemens are the envy of a lot of clubs, so I'd rather he was played in a system where he performs best and support that.

Haha! Seriously a lot of the comments are not even about his football ability, a lot are about what he wears and who he is mates with. It’s down to personal dislike  and people can’t wait to jump on! The same happened with Chilwell! No wonder The Sun sells so  well! 

 

People dislike a young lad doing well and flaunting it...quite sad really. 

Agree, there’s a lot of personal OTT comments in my opinion. Debate the performance but keep it relative to the game/match itself. Not what’s gone on before, what his clothing preferences are et cetera..

How is he out of touch? He seems pretty grounded from my view, raised in a good home with supportive family. 
 

He messed up on the party, but what young person doesn’t make mistakes?

worse than Ricardo who couldn't beat a man and ket falling over, or Soyuncu who gave the ball away leading to a goal and nearly gave a peno away, or wilf who gave the ball away a lot, or castagne who offered very little in attacking play?

I don't think they got dropped for breaking covid rules, from what I read it was defying BR orders when they got found out, what might have upset him is he seemed to get most of the flack as he's the most gifted and was fit to play, there was Barnes, Morgan, hamza and Perez and you heard little about them, even from our own fans

So you think someone that sulked as a lone striker, suddenly saw Vardy beside him and became a stud. A striker needs a run, putting him when we are 3 up and the midfielders are thinking if the shower and dinner doesn't cut it. 

....lost you with this one!!!

[Vardinio'sCat]

Feel a bit more forgiving today, he was better than previously but I'm confident Perez would have given more in that game.

 

All of them want to play, it's pretty much a given. BR (bless his tiny cottons) has gambled that Madders will deliver us to a higher level rather than just letting Perez see the season out (in terms of the starting 11). BR has said as much himself, and lets hope it comes good in the end.

I’m the same I’ve cooled down a bit after the result... just need to hope the players can lift themselves and start to play 

[zacd14]

I think the problem is that he's so full of himself and selfish he doesn't look round at the players around him and think, oh I need to up the tempo with my passing, he lives in his own dream world most of the time and unfortunately believes his own bullsh*t that he's up there with Mount, Grealish and Foden when in reality he is a million miles away.

I think some of the lads in that dressing room/on the training ground need some philosophy too.

[LestaAl]

Never been a fan... not really sure why even though he ‘s clearly talented... put him on the bench for the next game and see how we do.

[jmono84]

He is starting to piss me off. He still looks way short of fitness and you’d forgive if he’s putting 100% in trying to get fit but after the COVID incident I bet he’s still fcuking about.

 

He needs to knuckle down and focus on getting his career back on track because at this rate he’s going to lose his spot to Perez.

[weller54]

If, and it's a big if.. anyone comes in with a bid for him in the summer, I hope we take it.

He's let the club down and that debacle just before the West Ham game has cost the club dear!

No excuses for what he did..

Get rid!!

The defying of manager orders is not acceptable, and mistakes by Maddison wasn’t great. And I understand him getting more flack owing to the fact he was fit to play, but he has received far more stick then Perez.

 

aside from the mistake above, I don’t see someone who epitomises “out of touch” footballer. Maddison often speaks out about things, or dedicates goals to deceased fans. 
 

Yes he can be a bit over arrogance, but don’t some footballers need that. I love it when

he says things like “we are Leicester city” and talking us up.

 

there’s a reason why he’s on the leadership group, and that’s because (despite the odd mistake) he is confident and speaks well.

That's sort of the point, you don't know. You nail the current problem, his recent return from injury, then go off some weird fantasy tangent. I get that his "media personality" might rub people up the wrong way but none of us actually know him as a person. He was being praised by everybody on this forum after he did a post-match interview where he sounded great, talked sense about us as a club compared to the "big six", the team getting on with it behind the scenes etc. A game where he played great and positively contributed. A game we won.

 

BR has to work out whether to play him into fitness or rest him. He's a talented player but unfortunately isn't a player to grab the rest of the team by the scruff of the neck. Maybe in time, as he grows older, that'll come. Maybe not.

It comes across as all a bit for the social media/media 'likes' though i'm afraid (and that goes for any footballer or public figure who does these things) and that sounds awful regarding the deceased fans point you make bit but the cynic in me can't help but have those opinions.

 

It's all about making himself relevant.

But we then start to get into the realms  of personality types and the different psyches that make us all different. 
 

people like Maddison don’t rub me up the wrong way. if he feels to get “likes” through social media will benefit him, so be it.  but if it upsets some like yourself in the process, I do think we as humans need to show some restraint as to what we bite at or have an opinion off. (Again, not directing this at you Matt) 

 

Those that are “entitled” piss me off, and I find it hard to not voice my view though 😁

Careful mate you’ll upset the heads in the sand brigade with this sort of chatter, everything is ok, keep doing what we’re doing they say. Not to mention free speech filter Mark.

Agree with this.   Whatever bangs his gong.  

But all this is measured by his contribution on tbe pitch.

Right now he is under delivering (no pun intended).  If this stuff helps him find his form the great.

Imo we cannot no longer faff about hoping he will click.  He must focus on August ...he can have minutes when we are 2 up

Well Seneca would have been crap on twitter!

Probably not the go-to guy for hot takes...

Considered reasonableness? Pah!

Have loved his contributions at on many occasions, but the COVID incident and his love of social media puts him in the same company as Chilwell.  If we sell a big name again, hope this guy goes.

I like to live on the edge mate 😂..

Mark has had me on limited posts and no image uploads for years now 😂!!!....

That's what a bit of power can do.
