useless Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 I think Eze is a similar level to Maddison, I'd say that Eze is more consistent, but when Maddison is at his best then he's the better player of the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he'd be a very good signing for us, we probably couldn't hope to sign a player with a bigger reputation, but at the same time I think some people are buying into the hype that surrounded him a couple of years back, he's good but not Grealish/Foden level of player good, and based on recent form not even on Mount's level. Great! Let's sign Harry Kane while we're at it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post HanoiVillan Posted May 12, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 12, 2021 We're not going to sign either Maddison or Eze, so this argument seems a bit moot to be honest. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets sign Messi while we're at it. Harry Kane isn't pushing for a place in the England squad he's a guaranteed starter, a big difference between him and Maddison. Your point was Leicester may not want him anymore which is ridiculous given Maddison's ability - proven by the clamour for him to play for England. There is no chance in hell we sign Maddison. Why would Leicester with a Champions League place sell one of their prized assets to us? Reality check. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 No the idea that Leicester may not want Maddison anymore isn't 'ridiculous', he's been out of form and if they reach champions league they may feel they can sign better. a Leicester fan even came on here last night and said if they sell a player this summer it could be him, his inconsistency has been an issue for them for a while. Whether he'd come to us is a different matter, but him leaving them wouldn't be the biggest surprise, although like I said I think he'll stay with them for at least another season.

sne Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 In that case why would we want a inconsistent, injury plagued (their word) £80m player on massive wages that Leicester doesn't rate? Anyway, Maddison is not coming here regardless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indigo Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 I'd be stunned if the club had spent a lot of money and time devising a recruitment strategy only to then start trying to spend £60-80 million on English players already playing in the league. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 It’s great that the targets will be exciting. Whether we are able to sign these players is a different story. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomaszk Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Don't think players of the likes of Swift will be happening this summer except perhaps a left back where we don't really have any depth at all. It'll be players brought in to start or guys a bit younger than 25. Good player who's had an ordinary season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfc1982am Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 I hope we will see a front 3 of Ollie, Tammy and Bertie next season with Jack taking the 10 and at times the 8 role when the DM is needed. That's what I'm hoping for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, for the hundredth time, if there was an issue with him and Rodgers as is speculatively suggested in some quarters, he might be available. Even then, almost everybody accepts its not likely we get him. But we're ambitious, loaded and it's not impossible. Also, it's just a bit of fun. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
