James Maddison has been warned that he is in danger of emulating the Liverpool ‘Spice Boys’ of the past, with Stan Collymore offering words of a advice to a Leicester midfielder who “if he was chocolate, he’d eat himself”.
Back in Collymore’s era, his spell at Anfield saw a number of team-mates face criticism for thinking too highly of themselves and revelling a little too much in the trappings of fame and fortune.
Plenty have slipped into that category since then, but the hope is that Maddison can avoid heading down a similar path.
