Exactly. Maddison is so underestimated and undervalued on here by some, it's unreal!
He’s also vastly overrated by some on here. And I’m a Maddison fan. I think she is a good player who has a lot to offer. But he has not been as good for us as some seem to remember him being.
 
This season stats, just looking at the 'attacking midfielder' attributes.

Mins played - Praet 230, Maddison 61
Shots per 90 mins - Praet 1.96, Maddison 1.48
Key passes per 90 mins - Praet 1.57, Maddison 1.48
xG per 90 mins - Praet 0.11, Maddison 0.04
xA per 90 mins - Praet 0.28, Maddison 0.07

Nothing here says to me that Praet deserves to be dropped for Maddison.

61 mins. Yes, great assessment.

A 61 minute comparison of an injured player.... ****ing hell mate, even you must see how ridiculous this.... oh..... I forgot who I was dealing with.

I could have said that Maddison's contribution at Man City was the first decent thing he's done for us since New Years day. I could also have got into what happened to the pre COVID Praet (good) vs. the post COVID Praet (bad).

Instead I just tried to see what evidence there is that Maddison has earned a start over Praet so I used what was available. Of course there is limited evidence but it's better than just making stuff up.

For what it's worth, I'd play both of them.
 
Schmeichel
Castagne
Morgan
Fofana
Evans
Huth
N’Gotty
Walsh
Elliott
Taggart
Justin

Subs: Bruce, Brown, Morrison, Hobbs, Heath, Watts, Kisnorbo

i think Darren Kenton deserves a go in holding midfield. brings a good energy to the side.
 
Assuming all fit:

Kasper

Castagne
Evans
Soyuncu
Justin

Mendy

Maddison
Youri
Praet
Barnes

Vardy

4-1-4-1/4-2-3-1 depending on how you want to look at it, but basically our usual setup but with Maddison playing narrow on the right. He can tuck inside, as Castagne provides the width there anyway

Under won't start yet I don't think; he will be there as an impact player off the bench for a while IMO.

have you watched Maddison play wide at all? he is totally ineffective and a waste of a starting space, we signed a right winger in Under, so we should play him
