Would this solve all of our money problems in one swoop? If so, it may be in our best interests to cash in and start rebuilding a new team. Yes, Maddison has been our best player this season but Tielemans has been one of the worst. We would need to find a Madders replacement for a lower fee and on a smaller contract. I think it might be the best way to sort out the current torture that we are having to endure. Also some free transfers next summer with out of contract players could further help our wage bill. Tielemans has not been one of the worse players this season, in fact he's been one of the better players. He was the best player on the pitch away at Chelsea and we still lost. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sm1 Posted 29 September 2022 Share Posted 29 September 2022 I wouldn't blame any ambitious player who doesn't see their future with us. We've gone from one of the most well run, proactive PL clubs to a basketcase within a few years. Our much vaunted recruitment is a shambles, we've got no money and a coaching staff that seem to have no clue. As sad as it is to say, we cant allow another Youri situation, either Maddison signs or we sell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

l444ry Posted 29 September 2022 Share Posted 29 September 2022 (edited) If we do let him go it will finally settle the argument as to whether the current situation is down to FFP or that we really are skint.

moseeds Posted 30 September 2022 Share Posted 30 September 2022 I mean if any one of us were in Maddison's shoes we'd be trying to salvage something for the 2026 World Cup. He'll be nearing 30 by then I think and in the final years of his career. At the moment he's on a sinking ship being overlooked even if he won the Ballon d'or. Imagine the WhatsApp messages going back and forth between the current 20-something year olds in the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimJams Posted 1 October 2022 Share Posted 1 October 2022 We'll get a decent fee for him and give a new manager some money to spend. His stock's pretty high, it'd be a fair bit higher if Southgate wasn't such a tit, so we'll get well reimbursed. Whether thar's in January or the summer, time will tell.

He's really the only creative spark we have and we should be building around him. I'm worried if we lose him and Vardy continues to decline and Tielemans gone... That's a lot of goals for Harvey Barnes to score. I really feel lost with the club right now, even if we stay up I just don't see a long term plan to solve the problems we face all over the pitch in terms of first team starting personnel. Genuinely worried no matter who the manager will be in 2023/4 we need some serious investment to be competitive and maybe even stay in the PL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ithuriel Posted 2 October 2022 Share Posted 2 October 2022 Even if things turn around and we stay up he will be sold, not signed a new contract and will want away, after letting so many players run their contracts down, doubt the club will take the risk but I cant see them selling him mid season, fortunately I doubt he has the patience to sit here another season waiting for a free so gone at the end of the season definitely in my opinion.

HybridFox Posted 4 October 2022 Share Posted 4 October 2022 (edited) I'd actually be massively gutted if he goes. One who will no doubt improve any team he joined. Without the European football carrot, it'll be very difficult to keep him here beyond the summer. Especially when Southgate's made his criteria clear Edited 4 October 2022 by TK95 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJB-fox Posted 5 October 2022 Share Posted 5 October 2022 I’ll cry if he goes. On the flipside can you imagine what a monumental lift for the club it would be if he signed a new deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

st albans fox Posted 5 October 2022 Share Posted 5 October 2022 I can’t believe that he would actually go to newcastle he is good enough to play for one of the rich six. I wonder if spurs might come sniffing in January and the newcastle stuff is his agent trying to drum up interest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Realistically now this is who we are, we need to let out superstars go and replace them with new talent. I woukd love us to pay Maddison what he wants to stay but we don't have the revenue to support this model. We should be greatdul madders is on top.form so that when he goes it's for a maximum fee. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
