Wasn't good enough. Agree. Who knows why after such an impressive first 3 mobths.
So Spurs like sadly.
needs a better front 3 to work with. started off well but was never going to last if hes got such a poor frontline to work with. must be draining.
Maybe this gives him the kick up the arse he needed for next season.
He was below average after he came back from his injury, the last game of the season especially I thought he was awful.

Southgate always seemed to have room for Harry Maguire and Kalvin Phillips even though their form was so bad they couldn't even get in their club teams. United were practically trying to give Maguire away last summer.
Maguire is expected to be in the 26 man squad but Gareth seems to have finally run out of patience with Phillips. Maddison hasn't had any of the time they've had.

Because there are 6 or 7 better players in his position as alternatives, unlike CB and DM (less so now on the latter hence Phillips being bombed)
He's the Nuno Espírito Santo Tim Sherwood of our #10s.
England captain is still as Spurs as it gets
Only when he misses a penalty/golden chance to win the tournament, that’s when most will call him Spurs no doubt
I was wondering the same, perhaps his injury is still hindering him...cos for sure when he came back he wasn't at the same level as he was pre it., He wouldn't be the first player to come back to early from injury pre a big international tournament and suffer the consequences. Richarlson springs immediately to mind.
He's definitely not average but he is inconsistent. Somebody wrote that a Leicester fan told them he'd be brilliant for a third of the season, injured for another third and mediocre for the remainder. About as accurate as you could get.
SSN trying to equate it to when Hoddle left out Gazza in 98. I mean come on, it’s nothing like it whatsoever. Such nonsense.
Painfully average? You sure
When you have players like palmer, foden, eze then it was always going to be difficult for maddison especially considering his end of season form. These other players can also play in other positions.
Needs to up his game to a much more consistent level.
