Seems strange that he was being compared with Grealish last season, but now there’s light years between them, Grealish catapulted to another level and Madders seems to be styling himself on Jesse Lingard, concentrating on novelty celebrations.
Grealish is top quality. Miles ahead of Maddison. Maddison is decent enough, but Fosse is getting too carried away about Lesta yoot.
I rate Maddison, but my prediction for him is that he goes off the rails, has a ‘crew’, gets on the lash, probably hits the beak, chases Z lister celebrity skirt and goes downhill rapidly. See Dele Alli & Beanz for details. He just has that look about him.
LOL... where's the Ox mate? ... what happened with Ashley Cole, van Persei, Fabregas and Nasrii? .... we are no different to any other team ... we just get better money than most do (Ozil) ... and Mahrez had to wait until we were ready to sell ... slabs was ridiculous money ... and Kante had a release clause ... then there was Vardy ... he soon came to his senses when faced with the reality of the alternative on offer
Needs to calm himself down, can tell when he’s rattled though cos he starts chatting about Pogba like I’m Pogba’s biggest fanboy or something.
Ox is permanently on the bench mate. Chill Fosse, I don't make the rules it's just the way it is. When big clubs come sniffing, you're likely to lose your best players again.
Just had a list of ex-Arsenal players going all the way back to Ashley Cole reeled off at me in a scatter gun Fosse rant
Yeah Jesse was doing all that too at one point. The point is, Jimmy’s nowhere near as good as Grealish.
Why would I be in pain ? You asked me what happened to Ox, I told you he sits on the bench for Liverpool. It would be good to see what Maddison could do at a big club though, as I rate him. Just not sure he's top quality, but I guess we'll find out one day.
One thing guaranteed ... tonight's game will certainly be a better watch for the neutral than that abortion of a game at the weekend
As it will with Saka ...no telling which will leave first of course ... but Madders was happy enough with his new contract ... you best hope Saka ain't been chatting with Mesut ...
I think we'll build the team around the likes of Saka and Smith Rowe. They are exactly the type of players Arteta wants. You'll get decent coin for Maddison, so it's not all bad.
Any player that leaves is an ex-player mate ... happy to help ... the fact that your habit goes back to Cole and has continued with all your best players shows just how endemic it is with you lot
He was like, 3 years ago he was at his peak, scored some quality goals including iirc a brace at a freezing Goodison one January night.
