James Maddison can have few complaints after being axed from England's Euro 2024 squad. His darts have made more impact than his football, writes MATT BARLOW
Daily MailJames Maddison is entitled to feel disappointed. Spurs' James Maddison failed to make Gareth Southgate's final 26-man squad for Euro 2024 The England boss Southgate revealed that recent club form was a key factor in his decision Maddison enjoyed a fruitful start to the season with Tottenham as the side won eight of their first 10 matches He withdrew feeling unwell from Southgate’s squad before a Euro 2020 qualifier in the Czech Republic, only to be pictured at the poker tables in a Leicester casino on the night of the game. After scoring the opener for the Bees at Spurs on Maddison’s first start after his injury, Maupay borrowed the move and celebrated by pretending to throw darts at a TV camera. Brentford striker Neal Maupay trolled Maddison after he scored for the Bees against Spurs in Maddison's first start after returning from injury in January Spurs endured a couple of dismal runs of form during the campaign, including a stretch of five defeats in their final seven games of the campaign It is great for those of us in the media, but maybe not if you are the England manager wondering how he might react to a second major tournament in a row spent firmly on the fringes. Spurs missed Maddison when he was not there and Ange Postecoglou’s team were different by the time he came back The emergence of Eberechi Eze and Cole Palmer have ultimately left Maddison without a place in the team Jude Bellingham can operate in the same areas of the pitch as he does for Real Madrid, the European champions.
