Player James Maddison

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

30m & winks really. Great for us. Not the biggest fan of his personality & thought he was injured all the time. But the former means nothing in sport if he produces on the pitch, & the latter I discovered is a myth. Be typical if Kane leaves now we have someone to create for him. If he fails here we would get most of our ££ back anyway.
This personality narrative needs to stop. You aren’t a fan of the way he looks more like. He’s actually an open, honest and opinionated player - I think he’s great TBH albeit I can admit his tattoos look shite

Yeah I don’t like shallow & vain show offs to be fair! But also don’t like his personality based on his actions. Going to house parties during covid lockdown, going to casino when he says too sick to play for England & those tweets. I am just not a fan of players who seem more interested in looking/seeming cool than being the best player they can be. It’s a very high amount of youngsters like that these days. Not surprised he worships Jack wilshire. Imagine him as your idol.
 
Not likeable by you !!
I will make my own decisions thank you.
Yeah that’s my point. It’s meaningless saying someone is unlikable as such a person has probably never existed. Always be some that like them. Yes, you are free to like him & anyone else. I don’t mind at all.
All that matters is he performs on the pitch

Weren't a fan of Gazza then?
 
You a covid party guy too? People like Andrew Tate so I guess saying someone isn’t likeable Is meaningless these days.

Doesn’t have to be likeable tbf. Richarlison is, let’s be honest, an irritating dickhead but the only reason our fans get on his back is the poor performances.

If Maddison kicks the ball well, nobody will care if he’s a bit of a nob. And he definitely is, nobody should forget that fucking backpack.

Agreed. It’s just a double whammy when they are playing bad & have a bad attitude. You do need some horrible players in your team though. But I prefer the more tough physical ones rather than the fancy dans

I am very confident that he will perform on the pitch. He is the type of player that opposition fans love to hate but I'm sure that he will quickly become a Spurs fan favourite.

It will be good having someone who can score free kicks & take good set pieces for the first time in many years!
 
I'm going there....no not really. Gazza is a complete tool really. God like powers total over-indulged man baby. Made Maddison seem like a total role model
I think it's been well documented that Gascoigne CLEARLY had/still has mental health issues... Not that it excuses everything, but it's partly responsible...

It wouldn't surprise me in years to come if it turns out Sol Campbell has had similar issues.... He's never quite grasped normality, and has clearly had personality issues... That said, he's still a cunt!

Maddison, I feel doesn't have any such issues... though he is 'guilty' of being a slightly over confident lad at quite a young age ... fair play to him if he can back it up with performances!

Partly responsible maybe but it's quite the slight on people with mental health issues if you get granular on some of the things he's done. I'll give the guy partially but it can't absolve some of the stuff.

That's why I said partly responsible!

People with mental health issues can still be cunts.... and having mental health issues shouldn't absolve you completely of abhorrent behaviour.... but it's PARTLY responsible!
