adejo92 Posted 26 July 2021 Posted 26 July 2021 I feel as though James Maddison has a lot more to offer although at 24, he's hardly a 'kid' in footballing terms so maybe a move is what he needs to really step it up. Unless he improves drastically, he isn't getting a sniff for any more England Caps. Â Personally, i hope he doesn't leave, but i don't feel he has any allegiance to this team, especially with the likes of Chilwell leaving, and i feel that a 'big name club' might just turn his head.Â

If him and his GF are settled, they might decide it's best to stay at his current digs in the Midlands to bring up their child for a year or so - no idea where his GF is from but assume she's living with him now?  It's not like he's turning down the move of a lifetime by not moving to a club on the slide this summer. 1

ARM1968 Posted 27 July 2021 Posted 27 July 2021 Why go to a less successful club, in current terms, and one that has slipped out of the Big 6 in reality. Just be a downward step. 2

He fancies the prestige at being at a London club. He fancies the reported doubling of his wages.  Arsenal will always be there or thereabouts, it would only take a few decent signings and a decent run and they're back where they believe they should be.  I hope he doesn't leave, but it wouldn't surprise me if we're looking for his replacement, and if we find one he'll be gone.
mozartfox Posted 27 July 2021 Posted 27 July 2021 Arsenal do not have 60m to burn. And if we take some of their unwanted reserves as makeweights, Â I would worry about this.
fleckneymike Posted 27 July 2021 Posted 27 July 2021 I see no point in the Arsenal move. Chelsea, Liverpool, Man City, or United have clear ambition, funds, investment and European football. Arsenal are so far off those 4 that any move doesn’t guarantee top 4 or trophies and rules out a move to those top 4 sides.  He’s better off waiting for one of the current ‘big’ clubs. 1

No business sense in that. 1

Stop being so bloody sensible will you. 🤣  Arsenal are a shite small club. Step down for Madders. Vardy said no. Right decision. 1

urban.spaceman Posted 28 July 2021 Posted 28 July 2021 It’s ok they’re after someone called Maddiosn. Phew!   1

mozartfox Posted 28 July 2021 Posted 28 July 2021 How does this Muppet get a gig at Sky? So Artita is 'building something' at Arsenal and BR is just passing the time away at Leicester. Mmm...
