Maddison

[He aint bald]

He interacts really well with Iheanacho on the right, in the centre and even occasionally on the left. They are reading each other really well now. It must be a nightmare trying to control them. KDH and Barnes are also getting a good understanding . This part of our game is looking really promising. How do Vardy and Daka fit into that? That could be tricky.

JV interacts well with Madders, Barnes and Kelechi. He fits where he wants

[Sharpe's Fox]

Would rather our players keep away from England and the Waistcoat Pulis.

Grealish may be higher in the order but he shouldn't be based on the quality of output this season. He's been bang average for Manchester City. 

Don’t get the game time as much though

Gallagher would be next.

 

Wouldn't be surprised if even gray is above him in the order. The current journalists are so convinced by Southgate that he doesn't get a mention anymore when it comes to selection.

 

He really needs to find a Welsh nan.

He's of Irish descent 

[Claridge]

I don’t want any Leicester players injured on international duty. Hope he never picks any of them

[FosseSpark]

Lots of stories about Maddison up for sale for £50m and Tielemans for £25. 

That's essentially 20 midfield goals and 15 assists a season that we need to replace for £75m. Not an easy order.

Also selling Tielemans Maddison will need to be seriously sold to Fofana Ndidi Barnes Soyuncu who could well think that it's the end of an era and could have their heads turned. 

[CrispinLA in Texas]

We should cash in on Ndidi.... don't think he's going to get better.

Would be really disappointed if we sell Maddison.

Tielemans...it's up to him, if he wants to go then we can't do anything but if wants to stay then hopefully he gets back to playing better

[frakenfox]

I've read the stories but tbh I don't think they make sense. Either Youri OR Madders but not both, and the former only is more credible.... imho. We could build a side around Madders for the next few seasons (in fact, I kinda assumed that was what would happen in this planned refresh/rebuild) Unless there is an issue with Maddison then I don't see it... unless we really are strapped for cash and open to silly number bids!

[fox_up_north]

Surely it's agent talk? Perhaps Madders agent trying to either drum up a better contract or push for a move before Youri leaves.

 

No way we let our two creative CMs go in the same window. Might as well forfeit our league place.

 

Perhaps agent knows this and reckons if Youri goes, then Maddison isn't going anywhere for a couple of years and there won't be any sweet signing on money.

I'm not sure Southgate can be slated too much given he's taken us to a world Cup semi and euros final in the last 3 years but his constant over looking of Maddison is very odd. However, given Maddisons injury issues over the past 12 months and his really good form recently, I'm quite glad he wasn't called up for 2 meaningless friendlies and could stay at home and keep fresh for our up coming games. Whilst it's good to have international players, I'm club over country every day of the week and would forfeit England ever winning another trophy if it meant leicester winning trophies. I understand the 2 are not linked in anyway but my point being leicester is far more important to me than England  

Southgate is a proven loser. He deserves no slack. We didn’t win two tournaments because he refused to play our best players. He has his favourites which take precedence over team success. Look at his penalty takers against Italy, not based on ability, but his PC views, which he put above the national interest. Got no time for the man. 

[walkerleeds]

Imagine the boos if Madders goes to Spurs.

[Grebfromgrebland]

If we have 2 good centre backs we can afford to sell ndidi. Watching Mendy be confident on the ball and spray passes around gives you food for thought.

He picked those penalty takers because of PC views. Fvckin hell I've heard it all now.

what pc views are those, if you don't mind enlightening me?

[turlo]

We wanted 65/70 mill for Madders last season while he was out of form and struggling with a hip injury, so we're not going to let him go for 50 mill after the season he's had. What a load of bollox from the Daily Fail. 

[Weller Wing]

If madders keeps up his form, he might make the England World Cup squad. 

 

He'll then be around other players,from bigger clubs, that will tell him how good it is at their clubs an how much money he could earn .

 

Then we could sell him for loads and think about a song of how much we hate him and how big our centre half's todger is 😆😆

Didn't realise that's where this nonsense had emanated from.

 

As you were.

I'm not overly arsed about the England squad to be honest and will admit that I'm fair weather and only take interest when there is a tournament but what you've just said there is complete and utter nonsense! 

[FosseSpark]

Feels like the core of this rebuild is 

Schmeichel Ricardo Fofana Justin Thomas KDH Barnes Daka Iheanacho and hopefully Maddison

Vardy Evans Albrighton will be in and out next year 

 

I think soyuncu ndidi tielemans are the three that he might look to shift of significant value. 

 

That would leave in the market for 4 big players to look to 'rebuild'

Iheanacho is up for sale according to John Percy. 

[theessexfox]

He’s really bloody good, I’m so happy he’s managed to shake off the injury worries and become really consistent, he was quiet for spells yesterday but there were times he got on the ball a lot more centrally and he looked great, I think this is the best all round player he’s been for us so far

We might as well sell him if Brendan doesn't trust him.

[Guest Mickyblueeyes]

It would be utter madness to sell a goal scoring, creative midfielder for £50m to try and fund a purchase for another one to “take us to the next the level”. The only thing more difficult to obtain then a goal scoring midfielder is a goal scoring striker. 
 

Seems like a great page filler but not a lot of thought behind it. 

[Hamilton Fox]

Nonsense article, Maddison’s probably having his best run of form these last few months since he’s been here, and we are going to be actively trying to sell him? No chance

[Grebfromgrebland]

Nacho and Madison should be our future. It would take a genius or a mad man to sell these thinking you can improve the first team.
