Yeah, I just read that. Bizarre bump.
James Maddison | Spurs
- Thread starter Luke1995
- Start date
Will be in the last year of his contract at the end of this season A very good player to look as an option for the future:
12 goals & 8 assists last season. Started with 2 goals and 1 assist in four so far.

Not that Potter was an arse or anything but I really wanted us to put the boot in on Brighton on the opening day as revenge for the 4 nil last season.
They tried to portray him and Hall as being the only ones carrying the fight to Utd but I thought Maddison was rubbish
Look at this shit

Basking in it. Never seen him go into any detail after other games. Look at how clever I am!
Reminds me of poker player who win a hand and have to talk you through what they thought so every one knows how good they are. It’s petty I know but I can’t stand people trumping their own horn. I’d say the same if Utd managers tries it as well
He certainly had some good moments. Winning the 2nd freekick where he was arguably fouled by Casemiro, then got up and asked for the ball, took it on the turn to the left and McTom brought him down. And his freekick that De Gea did well to handle. And was an inch from being perfect.
He’s a United fan, and is a good player. If Leicester are still in this mess come Jan, I think he could be a good addition for us
you don't have space for him in the team
I'd rather watch Maguire play AM for us than have this weasel on our team.
let’s just say my views on Bruno Fernandes are controversial on this forum
Why? What has he done? Not really familiar with supposed/potential antics.
on Bruno fair enough if that's your view.let’s just say my views on Bruno Fernandes are controversial on this forum

on Maddison he hasn't done anything since being at Leicester even his scandals are nothing drummed up by Durham on TalkSport
I've no idea if he's done anything, he just absolutely loves himself and has an incredibly punchable face.let’s just say my views on Bruno Fernandes are controversial on this forum

Bizarre that Southgate doesn’t pick him.
Unreal.
They said that about Grealish and now he gets minutes England still “lack creativity”. Go figure.
A better player than Mount.
5 goals and 2 assists this season. 12 goals and 8 assists last season. (PL only). Good at set pieces too. He outscores Grealish but Grealish has a 12 assist season.
if we are honest both should be in the squad.

He’s top class. Has been for years.
Said it before. He should be starting in the 10 position for England. Someone who actually suits the position.
I remember when I preferred Maddison to Bruno when we were looking for an attacking midfielder. Not sad that we got Bruno but Maddison is equally good.
Maddison is better
England don't have a 10 position...that's part of the issue with a 343. He's been a productive player, who plays behind a center forward or forward line, but ahead of another central midfielder (e.g. Ndidi and/or Tielemans).
Either way, Maddison is a good player. Good age at 25 and has a good head on his shoulders, but does he have the total drive and committment to make the jump and be a key figure in a big club?

He’s not playing as a 10, he’s starting from the right of the front 3 and has been since Dewsbury-Hall broke into the side
Off topic but how good is the man with the poshest full name in football? How has Kiernan been for you guys? Potential England starter?
He brings much needed energy and physicality to our midfield he’s good enough to play for England especially if the likes of Ward-Prowse get in, in a 433 he’d be a quality option on the left
For what it's worth, the recent feature about him in The Athletic really emphasised his drive, ambition and commitment but they do tend to make every player they write a feature about sound like that.
Yeah does more for the team in my opinion
He scores a few goals and now everyone loves him again, so classic Caf 
Obviously would be a good signing for a top team, certainly wouldn't mind that being us now his price wouldn't be ridiculous.

Didn't know you could create chances without constantly being wasteful on the ball.
The only reason he’s still at Leicester is them quoting a daft price to Newcastle all summerHe scores a few goals and now everyone loves him again, so classic Caf

How the feck does this guy not even make the squad. Just goes to show how poor Southgate is.

It's not just a few goals is it, look at my post above. The guy has been consistent for a while now.He scores a few goals and now everyone loves him again, so classic Caf

I think he’s just too openly confident for Southgate
And of course we know that for Southgate the no 10 role is a defensive position

This thread had been dead over a month. He scored a couple of goals on tv and now people are singing his praises again. That's not me slagging him off, I've always rated him. I'm just laughing at classic Caf reactions.
Mates with Grealish as well. Which isn't exactly a glowing character reference
Agreed. De Bruyne with 84% passing rate yesterday couldn't lick this guy's booth.
All against the mighty Forest too…
I think it's more to do with the England squad announcement to be fair. Which is why his form has then come to light.
Arsenal wanted him didn’t they?
Would have been good in that team they are building even if they don’t need him as much now.

Didn't Newcastle also have a 50m offer rejected during the summer, iirc?
