Unfortunately Maddison is a total cockwomble who supports Woolwich.
I think he was 15 or 16 when he made those tweets? They don't bother me at all, as a player he has developed very well and would be a top addition to our squad.

What we lacked last season, before Kulusevski joined, was goalscorers other than Kane and Son. Richarlison should provide goals and has the quality to fit into our forward line.
He's not an overly exciting signing, but if Winks goes in the other direction then the deal makes a lot of sense as we guarantee money for him and his wages off the books.
Richarlison vs Raphinha stat compare. Very close.

TBF, the best thing about Jesus is not his goals, it's the workrate, off the ball movement, dribbling, and fairly decent hold up play.They played roughly the same amount.
...And like Jesus; Lacazette has been in and out ever since he arrived.
He's decent; not denying that...... BUT you're talking about a player that professes to prefer to play on the wing and are merely using your gut to come to such conclusions about his output.
Gabriel Jesus Arsenal Forward, Profile & Stats | Premier League
View the player profile of Woolwich Forward Gabriel Jesus, including statistics and photos, on the official website of the Premier League.www.premierleague.com
His best ever EPL season: 21 starts + 13 sub = 14 goals.........
Again; without KDB & co. there's no reason to assume he can match that at Arse.
Not sure that's what they need but it's better than a lot of the other options they could have gone for. If the chavs don't sort their shit out, woolwich could get 4th with Jesus, Raphina, Viera and no other real upgrades.
Hardly better than Lacazette numbers.

Since we play a fairly low possession football Richarlison's defensive work could be the better option over Raphina's better technical abilities.
On the other hand, with a player like Raphina we could become a more possession oriented team.
But if you watch them, Raphinha created something out of nothing regularly, he has talent that is beyond Richarlison.
Raphinha was playing RW in a poor Leeds side with Bamford and Phillips injured. Everton were dysfunctional, but Richarlison was playing CF where it's slightly easier to score and boost stats.
Priority to me means position of greatest need.
We "need" RWB, LCB & ST2 more than we need another WF.
Had this convo y'day....... When you're talking 65m quid that's superficial/fan think.
look also to their coach
:contelol:
"Barcelona are hoping Tottenham can convince France centre-back Clement Lenglet, 27, to move to the Premier League so that the La Liga side can start a summer clear-out of players." (ESPN)"
makes us sound like a rubbish bin...really insulting....espn is an American network so I really don't know what to make of this statement but I'm definitely not happy about it....

Raphinha is very good at LW too, while Richarlison is poor at RW.
Kane & Son are the 2 best players out of our front 3, so it makes more sense to buy a player who can provide healthy competition to Kulu at RW.
Rich means we don't need to buy another back up CF... but he's a worse signing in all other aspects.
Yeah, but the players available are important.
If Bastoni and Hakimi were available then perhaps they'd be the priorities. But they're not. Raphinha is a proven match winner, a player with X factor we should not miss out on.
It's entirely rational though. For a relegation team, losing a relegation 6 pointer is a more damaging blow than losing to a top team.
In the same way, Raphinha going to Woolwich doubles the blow of us missing out.
Would say the opposite - having back up to Kane and Son means we can rotate them a bit and they less likely to pick up fatigue injuries and more likely to keep fresh and in form
According to TFM; 23 of his apps were there last season...
(Though I'm dubious about those numbers as I can't remember may of them myself. Feel free to counter with more reliable stats.)
If Pep preferred to play no CF in recent years, rather than play GJ there, what does that tell you?
(It's not like Aguero was some beefy target-man; GJ should have been able to fit their system.)
He played less minutes that GJ.
Up until the 1st NLD PEA was still their captain and main man.
Goons rated AL... Not sure that aids your argument, but ok.
