Postecoglou overjoyed at Maddison’s impact at Spurs

The Hindu  

James Maddison continued his sparkling start to life at Tottenham Hotspur with a goal in Saturday’s 2-0 win at Bournemouth after which manager Ange Postecoglou insisted there is much more to come from the 26-year-old. I don’t know what world you live in mate?” the Australian former Celtic manager, who was a surprise choice for the Tottenham job, shot back. “I wouldn’t say I’m surprised, but I’m overjoyed at the footballer I’ve got.” Tottenham finished a turgid eighth last season with Antonio Conte at the helm until he was sacked in March. After Saturday’s win they were singing “we’ve got our Tottenham back” with Maddison already a firm favourite.
