Based on the latest ITK, my guess is that we'd only go for Maddison is Spence falls through, for HG reasons. I know others think the same.

I'd be happy with either of those players, but for both positions (RWB & CAM) I think we can get better for less abroad.
As far as CAMs go you can get one better or you can get one for less. Not gonna find one better for less (with basically zero risk, too).

His stats speak for themself he could start for most of the top sides if there was any possibility of signing him we should get him. I think he would push to start. Also with him and a top CB I think we have a genuine chance to push pool/city rather than just an outside chance with where we are at the moment this summer.
If we sign Maddison and a top cb we will win the league!!!

I'm sorry but it is an absolute no brainer to get JM if he is less than 50M. Even more so if they want Winks.

50M + Winks for Bissouma + Maddison would be two of the best transfers Spurs have ever done.

Don't want to piss on everyone's shreddies but there's nay a whisper about Maddison leaving on their forum. His thread is so buried I could barely find it.

If this is something we're pursuing we're doing it very quietly and a lot of Leicester fans will be incredibly pissed off :ROFLMAO:

This is the way.

Maddison has been performing at a high level in the PL, same as Richarlison. So we know he'd likely hit the ground running and not need a long time to adapt. For me that's a big plus over someone else who would be new to the league. Good to have a mix.

This would be the 3rd premier league club where we buy their best player this summer if we get him. (If you don't count Djed as forests best player)

This is unheard of.

We are building our own premier league all-stars

Gonna be sacrilege here but at this point in time Maddison >.
Not sure I'd go that far personally. Madison > Paqueta though.

I wonder if the extreme training regime was part of the thinking behind not pursuing him, I'd definitely understand if there were worries for his well being.

I’m a big fan. Very strong technically, scores, delivers the ball well from multiple positions. If we can get him in, would be a great acquisition.

Both Richarlison and Maddison to come in at over £100 million is not far fetched at all considering the capital injection we had plus outgoings we haven't even concluded. We will even have more than enough for another top CB. They will be money well spent and improve our squad so much. Please let this happen.

What baggage does he have? Do you mean being an Arsenal fan?
This is why we have to do this. There is no way that Leicester would let bothe Maddison AND Tielemans go. So is we get Maddison, Tielemans to the Woolwich neighbours would be off because of one of theirs. The fans would go absolutely Batshit.

That and because he is a massive talent that would really improve our midfield

The problem is Tielemans’ contract expires next summer so it’s now or never unless he renews now. Maddison’s expires in two years so not as much pressure to move on it.

List of players who contributed more goals and assists than Maddison last season:

Salah
Son
Kane
KDB
Cristiano Ronaldo
Mount (by 1 goal)

Please tell me where and how we are going to get 20+ goals and assists a season for cheaper. I’ll wait.
