Fantail Breeze Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Would be an outstanding signing if it comes off. I think that’s a fair offer too, if Sky are correct. Quicker we get this done the better so nobody else gets involved. Couldn’t think of a much better signing than this, given most others would want/demand CL football.

Conjo Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Just now, TRon said: I think it was reported that he didn't want to come here or go to Arsenal. Was really only adressing those that has said they prefer Maddison over Paqueta and cited PL experience as one of the main reasons. Whether we can/could/can't get him wasn't really the point of my post at all. Fully appreciate the club can see Maddison as a viable option as he's clearly a very good player.

Or is it a badly placed comma so it’s £50m including add ons as that reads a lot differently to £50m, including add ons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufc123 Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 6 minutes ago, Conjo said: Don't understand people who'd prefer Maddison ahead of Paqueta due to PL experience at all. Paqueta is bigger, stronger and has a higher work rate, all traits that are particularly important in this league so I see him as less of risk than Maddison. Paqueta is younger and also seems like a nice person which is always a positive compared to the turbo cunt Maddison appears to be, so he'd better score some absolute screamers for us, quickly, to win me over if we get him. less risk than Maddison? Maddison got better numbers in the PL than Paqueta in a much lesser league. Hes one year younger. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 I wanted Paqueta but I'd not be disappointed with Madison Might even prefer him, he's at the absolute top of what we can realistically expect to be signing at this stage. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The PL experience is quite a significant factor like, I mean we know what Maddison can do. I think Paqueta would do brilliantly over here FWIW, but it does seem like there's a CL club in for him, which one I'm not sure. Could be Spurs or City.

Gallowgate Toon Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 It doesn't sound like all is exactly well with Rodgers over there so Maddison might be seeing an opportunity to get out now, especially if nobody else has shown interest in him this summer.

The fact we've gone in with a second bid suggests Leicester are willing to sell. Even Rodgers didn't deny it as he did with Fofana. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 £50m all in - now we are seriously negotiating. I think if we get this to £50m as a base + add-ons, he's ours. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate Toon Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Absolutely mad that we finished 3pts behind Leicester last season, like, considering we didn't win a game until December. What a job Howe did, man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
