I prefer a wank flannel myself, but whatever works for you
 
I've made a couple of references on here about Maddison being used like Coutinho was by Rodgers at Liverpool (inside left attacker). I think it's fair to say that my observation has received little respect from TBers.

This is from Mr. Maddison himself:

“A lot of teams don’t really play with a No 10 these days. Not in the conventional sense, anyway...the manager and I have spoken about that role he (Coutinho) played in his team, and how sometimes he used Coutinho as a No 8 and other times, off the left in different games. He had the skill set to do well in those roles and now he’s getting me to play there. I believe I have the versatility to mix it up. Listen, I don’t like to be pigeon-holed into having to play in one position. I very rarely do play in one position. I’d like to say I can play different roles.”
Have you deliberately left out the quotation "I'd say my best position was as a No.8 but I can play off the left.... " or did it just not resonate? What about the bit where he says that he 'models himself on Gascoigne' (famously an inside left player)?

I am sure the manager and he have spoken about lots of players and lots of styles, it certainly doesn't mean he is trying to shoehorn him into that disguise.
