doesn't hurt him his mates in media kept peddling Maddison to Newcastle, they made one bid early in the window we rejected it and found it insultingly low and they never came back but every day someone said he was going to join them, there are a lot of people in media, especially ex-pros that want us to go down, they are bitter their clubs never achieved what we did. They aren't the top tier pundits but they are the ones that pop up everywhere and fill the narrative.
Celtic, Liverpool and Leicester fans all say the same thing about him yet still people like Jim White insist on calling him a top manager.
