Grealish likely to be dropped. Apparently Maddison’s training performances have impressed

Ironically he’s hardly trained for us recently because of his knee ……

 

and if he plays I/o grealish then surely it’s a change in shape because madders isn’t going to impress wide left

the formation is more important than the players you’re picking  …… if you don’t have the personnel to play the formation then change it ! 

 

over the decades we’ve just not managed to move on have we 

 

hopefully it won’t be a straight madders on the RW though. If he’s allowed to come infield and one of the holding midfield cover his side then it can work. If he’s supposed to hug the touchline then it’s like when England stuck vards out there.

SouthArse hasn’t a clue how to play certain players in their ideal position so he’ll stick a CAM out wide on the wing and probably play a winger as CAM, I’ve no faith in England winning any tournaments under this Manager he’s the Brendan Rodgers of Englands FA !

If England don't win , its because the players are not good enough. We seem to be totally reliant on the presence of Kane. Southgate has been no better or worse than the last dozen managers.

Southgate really is a moron isn't he. Go on Madders do your best anyway and coach teethgate won't pick you next time anyway, unless you've moved to a greedy 6/7 team by then of course which automatically changes the outlook . . . 

TBF he hasn't done too badly with who he has selected and I suspect had Rahsford been fit he'd be getting the nod.

I think Allerdyce would have been the ideal manager but for his discrepancy whilst being Catfished by a national Scumpaper, but for his comments I think he would have delivered some decent results non biased team selection ?

He can play anywhere across the three behind the number 9 now IMO. 

Agree & he’ll do it as well as Grealish if not better.

 

It’s just so obvious to most fans that he should start as the 10 behind Kane and between Saka & AN Other, with Bellingham as a 6/8 and Rice as a 4/6.

 

Presumably Southgate will see that when Madders is ripping up the Champions League next season?!

In an ironic way I think Brendan playing him out of position has made him more versatile. Of course we want to see him play as a number 10 but has shown that maturity to adapt his game to different scenarios

Madders just isn't a wide player in the style of any of the other England LWs, he's not going to run at his full back like Rashford, Grealish, Sancho. I'm not sure the way England play suits him, regardless of formation and his position. Hope I'm wrong.

 

At least he'll probably have Chilly behind him, who has a great engine.

Norwich City set for financial boost following England vs Ukraine update
BY
CHRIS GALLAGHER
PUBLISHED 1 HOUR AGO
James Maddison's first start for England will trigger a bonus for Norwich City from Leicester City.


Norwich City are set to receive a ‘significant windfall’ as James Maddison prepares to make his first for England in a competitive game this evening.

The Leicester City playmaker joined the club from the Canaries in 2018 after an outstanding individual campaign at Carrow Road where he managed 14 goals and eight assists. Due to that form, Norwich got big money for Maddison at the time, as he left for the Premier League for around £20m.

However, the Pink’Un have revealed that there were add-ons as part of the agreement, which included the Yellows picking up more cash once Maddison started a game for the Three Lions. Whilst no figure has been disclosed, they do state it is a ‘significant’ sum.

Surprisingly, despite his excellent domestic form, the 26-year-old has only played once for England, which came back in 2019, and that was as a sub. Therefore, the clause hasn’t been triggered, but it has been widely reported that Gareth Southgate will name Maddison in the starting XI against Ukraine at Wembley later on Sunday.

It isn’t known if Norwich have a sell-on clause as part of the deal that took Maddison to the East Midlands, but that could net them more money down the line. That’s because he is about to enter the final year of his contract at the King Power Stadium, and it’s been claimed that Newcastle United are among the clubs monitoring the player ahead of the summer window.

The funds could be welcome at Carrow Road if they are forced to spend another year outside the top-flight. David Wagner’s side are currently seventh in the Championship and battling to finish in the play-off places.

The verdict

This is a nice boost for Norwich in terms of helping financially, whilst it also shows how well the club did in recruiting Maddison previously.

Obviously, he came through at Coventry, but they realised his talent, gave him a platform to perform, and then sold him on for a massive profit, so it was excellent business, even if the fans would have loved to have seen Maddison spend longer at the club.

Overall though, they will be delighted to see how Maddison’s career has progressed, and they will no doubt be wishing him well in what is a massive moment for him later on when he is expected to start for England.

To be fair he is the most successful England manager since Ramsey so that’s a bit harsh.
