Terrific player I think he'd really blossom here and surprise a lot of people. For some reason he gives me Beckham vibes not just because he takes set pieces, he just has a very silky touch and a unique aura around his play, although he's still very raw and he'd need to really improve to reach such an incredible level. Back when the rumours about Ole looking to sign a British core for his team came out I instantly thought of Maddison. I think there is truth in that British rumour, he tried a very similar approach at Cardiff with Norwegians...
Luckily there are some great English talents around at the moment, that could really flourish under an attacking manager. I actually think we'd have moved for Grealish as well had Villa not been promoted, not as a guaranteed starter though. And if De Ligt doesn't join us I expect us to look at Maguire. I honestly wouldn't turn my nose up at any of those 3 but I'd still like us to sign a bit more quality than that.
Pogba to be sold and the proceeds of the sale spent on Maddison and Maguire? It wouldn't be the worst thing in the world as long as the midfield was supplemented with another additional signing. And the midfield would need to be fit as feck and to work as a unit ala a Klopp/Pep level side to really have us challenging, which is no easy feat.
In truth though, feck knows what we're actually planning. This is going to be a rollercoaster of a summer.
