Converted. I was dubious because he said he didn’t like us when he was a teenager. Very petty and unforgiving of me and I was a cunt for thinking that way.
Looks every bit a £80-90 million player.
Our midfield absolutely rocks.
 
Yeah, precaution sounds ominous but he walked off the pitch with no limp and he’d have cooled off a but by then, adrenaline would have left his system as well.

He was injury prone at Leicester. Well in the last 2 seasons there.

But like you say he didn't seem to be carrying an injury.

Allegedly he doesn't refuel in the correct manner of a pro. Let wait and see but he is going to be integral to our season. I hope its just an ache.
 
Who all edged that?


Guy I know who runs a Leicester pub in London called The Stag. He knows maddisons agent.

His agent was against him moving to London because of the party lifestyle.

Its all he said he said but he did say this about 4 months ago and he's not the sort of bloke to make something up.

Seems dubious. Why would Maddison’s agent go about sharing that negative info about his client?

Also Madders is Base so his agent is Frank Timboli. He’s Australian, not sure why he’d be in a Leicester pub

Nigel goes home and away, some games he's in the directors box. The pub isn't in Leicester. It's in Fitzrovia.

The agent wasn't being negative. Just chatting. It's not a secret maddison likes a beer. Remember the casino night on England duty? It's the main reason Southgate ditched him from the squad last wc. Ability wise he proved himself.

Anyway. Just shooting the shit. Believe me or not it's irrelevant. I'm just passing on a conversation. I'm not lying. He knows I'm a spurs fan and I asked him if he thought maddison was coming to spurs and would he be a good fit. I wasn't a massive fan of it happening at the time.

Turns out as usual I was wrong.


Edit. Actually didn't Southgate bring him to the wc but didn't play him? Not looking it up. But I know Southgate wasn't a fan

Well, let’s hope he can pass a pub as well as he can pass a ball

Fair enough!!
 
So pleased he’s a Spurs player. Every bit the right fit here. A different player to Eriksen but the best we’ve had at making things happen since. On the ball he reminds me a lot of Hoddle which is no bad thing!
 
Agreed, he seems to have already slotted in thinking he has a big part to play in this new era and his play backs that up. Really adds a huge element of creativity to our side, I'm loving what I'm seeing from him.

Interesting what Ange said about him coming into the club with no baggage and wanting to seize the day.
 
Us worrying about a potential issue for Maddison is another reminder that if we could sign someone like Eze it would be massive. If Maddison gets injured now then where is the creativity coming from? Are we relying on GLC or Kulu to move into that role? Not ideal.
