Maddison is very talented, but one reason this doesn’t ring true is that he has a reputation for being a bit full of himself. A bit of an arrogant prick, in fact. Nothing about him sounds as if he’s Pochettino’s kind of squad member.

Its funny, you can tell that simply from looking at his face. :LOL: I agree I think he is a VERY good player, but should have signed him for £20M instead of what it would take to land him now, I doubt Leicester would even consider it.

We've got much bigger fish to fry. In fact, they're in the pan with a bit of seasoning and coming on nicely (or so I'm told).

He's an arrogant prick and he makes no attempt to hide it and that's not from looking at his face. I've heard that first heard from someone who knows him quite well.

I'd love to say 'yes', but I have no inside info. I doubt we'd try for Maddison though as JJ has said Poch doesn't rate him and Maddison seems a bit of a knob. LoCelso will do for me.

Oh yes Lo Celso please....I'd pay the release clause now..(100m euros)..show we intend business.....but that will not happen..:cry:
I'd love to be watching the Copa America and hear him described as "recently signed for Tottenham Hotspur this season's Champions League winners". (y)(y)

From his face/twitter account/court cases of his friends and accounts from witnesses

The same might have been said about Dele or Rose. He's only 22 so Poch could work on him, and being among seasoned England regulars (he's not one and would doubtless have ambitions to join them), would perhaps put him on his place. I wouldn't rule him out.

Ronaldo is completely full of himself. Yet we would have him in a heart beat, wouldn't we?

Liked the look of him
for a while.
certainly talented
don't know about the reported baggage.
Right age for Poch. to incorporate
into the project.
Premiership ready and proven.

'Reportedly eyeing'
Means it's a baseles
agent speak rumour.
