James Maddison

[Burtonblue]

He is used to being the main focus of the team. He was at Ipswich and at Leicester.
Saw him have a proper hissy fit at the end of a game when at Ipswich and he point blank refused to shake hands with any of the opposing team or management. Wasn’t a good look.
I think he is the sort to throw his toys out of the pram when not selected.
Talented but not enough to justify signing him for me.

 

[I'm With Stupid]

He's 26. At that age if you want to play for us you should really be one of the best in the world in your position or at least have the potential to get there quickly. I honestly can't say I've seen him enough to judge.

 

[Ste68]

NO. Next.

 

[BringBackSwales]

Maybe his manager was just clueless

Personally I think it’s a lot of both

Norwich?

 

[Burtonblue]

Norwich?

Yes. Sorry. I’m always getting those two muddled…
Anyway, he behaved like a proper twat.

 

[Tevez City]

He might be better option than Kovacic.

He might be better option than Kovacic.

Not in the slightest.

 

[Tevez City]

Not in the slightest.

I guess we will never know because they play in different positions.


I think changing Maddison poistion from Attacking midfielder to CM, is not the most impossible job.

 

[TrentGrisham]

Not in the slightest.

Please elaborate because I'm genuinely curious.

Maddison has had multiple good games vs City with far less quality around him than Kovacic ever has. Just this season in our home game vs Leicester, Maddison was far and away Leicester's best player and made a pass to Ihenacho that KDB would be proud of.
