Read our privacy policy James Maddison lauded a “big night” for Tottenham after their 5-0 victory at Southampton built some much-needed momentum ahead of a crucial week for the club. A run of one win in eight increased the external noise around the position of head coach Ange Postecoglou, but this result was the perfect boost before Thursday’s Carabao Cup quarter-final at home to Manchester United and Sunday’s visit of Premier League leaders Liverpool. “It was a big night for us,” Maddison told BBC’s Match of the Day. Tottenham’s emphatic scoreline allowed Postecoglou to bring off captain Son Heung-min at half-time to manage his minutes before a big week and Yves Bissouma will also be available after a one-match suspension.
