Ever since he joined Tottenham, James Maddison has been nothing short of extraordinary.

Since joining Spurs, the England international has undoubtedly been the best player in the Premier League, but regrettably, some of his problems at Leicester City are beginning to surface.

Madison did indeed sustain an injury against Chelsea on Monday, and it appears that he has been dealing with an ankle issue for a while.

Madison may be sidelined for a while, and Sam Allardyce discussed some of the concerns associated with signing a player who is so prone to injuries on the No Tippy Tappy Football Podcast.

Declan Rice, according to Allardyce, will always prove to be a more dependable addition because he can consistently play 35 to 40 games per season, whereas Maddison’s output is unpredictable.

Maddison is less dependable than rice.

Allardyce delivered his assessment of the two stars of the north London clubs.

“Maddison had the same issues at Leicester, didn’t he? Allardyce stated, “You have a player like Declan Rice who is Mr. 35 games or Mr. 40 games, those are the players you buy first.” He didn’t cost much, so he was worth the risk.

Best possible

Even though we adore Maddison as a player, his injury problems have been an ongoing concern for a considerable amount of time.

The best skill in football, as we all know, is availability. Maddison can change a game, but if he’s on the sidelines, he’s useless to anyone.

We can only hope that his injury problems will go away, but, regrettably, it appears that he may become one of those players in the upcoming years who is plagued by injuries all the time.
