My controversial take is, we need forwards

I would def be cutting my Maddison losses now, not that anyone would likely take.

We should have gone for Kang from PSG, before he want to Athletico

Yeah, I love madders but we can't have another season with availability issues

I've often wondered if playing excessive golf can cause issues with the body of some footballers. It puts a fair bit of force/deceleration through the knee and the twisting could possibly cause wear/damage to the hip if there is already a weakness there?

Madders loves his golf, and was actually playing in a tournament a couple of weeks ago and has had knee and now hip problems. I think Bale also had hip problems and he was obviously a very keen golfer.

Just a thought. Though I'm sure club medical teams would be all over it.

The news today shows we can't rely on him at all this season
We have to buy a 10 who can create, Gallagher as a stopgap is not that player either

He has alot to offer, but he cant be captain with his injury record

Gary Mabburt & Ledley King

Gary Mabburt & Ledley King

Both played alot of games. Maddison hasnt started 30 games in a season in about 8 years

I agree with your point tbh. I’d give it to VDV. Just pointing out chronic injuries is a staple of our skippers lol

He would take the biscuit, which is ironic given he has the body of one, poor lad
