If there’s any hope we sign Maddison he should be our number 1 target imo. The bloke is fucking proven to be top drawer in the PL, is also still young, and from everything I can tell has a good attitude in terms of professionalism (obviously there’s stuff in the press about him but overall he seems to always be available for games and puts in consistently class performances).

Kid Dynamite 7593 Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 I'd love Maddison, but I'm not 100% sure where he fits into how we play? Unless he drops in for Willock and plays at the front of our midfield 3? A replacement for ASM/Murphy/Fraser on the LW is a priority. Or is Isak going to play there and cut in?

I saw him as the Willock replacement, and then get a DM to replace Longstaff/Shelvey. Maddison is also capable of playing on the wings which gives us that flexibility too. Isak seems to be able to play across the forward line going off what Wilson said on his podcast a while back. Left back is another area we will probably want to look to improve soon, Burn does well there but if we had a player who could also be a threat in attack like Trippier there we’d be adding another problem for opponents to deal with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wykikitoon 22671 Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 According to the Beeb gossip page we're allowing Lascelles, Lewis, Ritchie and Fraser to leave this window. Lewis, Ritchie and Fraser I agree with but if Lascelles goes do we have enough cover at the back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest all make sense, we don't really need them, ritchie has hardly played, fraser is back of the queue in an area we're looking to make stronger. Lewis should have been better than he is, I feel sorry for the lad that the most important phase of his career development as a top level pro was spent under Steve Bruce, if he was 2 or 3 years younger right now he'd have a real chance to develop under howe 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maddison’s versatility is a massive bonus. Ideally you want him in the middle just behind Wilson but you could see him replacing Willock in Howe’s 4-3-3 system. Imagine Bruno and Maddison either side of a new worlds class holding midfielder. And he could easily do a job out wide too when called upon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 14618 Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I can’t see Lascelles leaving unless they’re 100% confident of a replacement being sorted.
