4everfox Posted 16 June 2023 Posted 16 June 2023 How much is promotion worth? 100m? Keeping Maddison would massively enhance our chances of achieving that, so surely it would be better for the club to slap a silly price tag on him and risk losing him for free after promotion is (hopefully) achieved. I'd rather gamble and keep him, 100m is better then selling him for less than he is worth (60m) and decreasing our chances of promotion. It would also be amusing to watch Championship players get mauled every week by Maddison, Barnes and Iheanacho, all of which are far too good for the Championship. 1 1

Letting players who don't really want to be here run down their contracts hasn't been going too well for us has it both on the pitch and financially? So why would you want the club want to repeat its mistakes? Keeping a hungry and motivated Maddison is entirely different to forcing a sulking player to slog it for a season in the championship when he clearly has desire to do so. Now more than ever we need to cash in on players like Maddison and Barnes. 6

Southgate supports him even in Championship.. As gullible as I could be by this post, I do think it could be real. -He loves being in the midlands, his home, near to Coventry and twins on the way. -I think the only clubs he would consider based on the above are north London and Manchester, other then spurs I cannot see any other clubs based in those areas putting a bid in this summer -Southgate I feel picks Maddison over media and press pressure rather then because he rates him. As such madders playing championship football could (me being cynical here) give Southgate reasons to not select him. -contrary to others views I do feel Maddison will take responsibility for the penalty miss, and did genuinely feel gutted -1 year left on contract, big pay increase at another club next year if we don’t go up thats my logical possibly bonkers based views Edited 17 June 2023 by turkish14

A season in the the championship at his age at this point in his career would be the hight of stupidity.

Would rather sell Maddison and keep Barnes which is the more likely to happen. While Maddison is a great player, I wouldn't want him in the Championship side even under Enzo.. plus we can prob get 45/60m for him Actually I would have in the Championship but never happening and then we would lose the money as his contract is over next season.

Southgate supports him even in Championship.. There is Euro 2024 coming up, I really can’t see him risking it to help us back up. Sure he would go to instant legend status at the club if he did decide to stay but it would actually impact his career in my view. I’m a funny way I think we might be better off getting the money for him now Edited 17 June 2023 by foxes_rule1978 1
