James Maddison: Roy Keane Critical
Maddison may have discussed the comments made by Roy Keane on Hit Show Overlap Earlier this week. “People say that Maddison is the man,” said the seventh Premier League winner, making fun of the penchant of his target for having attended dart matches.
“When will he go to the plate?” He was relegated to Leicester and he will be relegated to the Spurs.
“Maddison is not bad when he is not at darts. But let me tell you that if you think he’s going to come back and bring the Spurs into the first six, you are in Cuckoo Land.
“He’s good, he’s a talented player. But if you are a player in the Spurs locker room and Maddison is back in the team, you would not look for and are not going ‘Oh, Jesus – he is back today. We are going to go well ”.
“England has a team of 300 and it cannot even enter it. You give yourself, everyone.
“You are in Cuckoo Land!” 😵💫 😂
Large words from Roy! To you, James Maddison… 💪 pic.twitter.com/xlti6tlskv

Tottenham vs Man United: “Exceptional” vicario
Postcoglou remained the favoir of the dimensions with the bookmakers after the match to become the next high level manager to leave his job, with the total of 13 defeats of the Spurs League representing the most of all the teams above the last four .
Maddison interrupted after 13 minutes To perhaps relieve the pressure on the Australian, the leaping after the goalkeeper Andre Onana could not retain the inclined shot of Lucas Bergvall.
“They count the same as 25 yards, so I’m really, really satisfied with it,” said Maddison about his very first goal against the Red Devils, calling the goalkeeper at the Guglielmo Vicario – after having broken an ankle in October – “remarkable.”
“The boys who have been in good shape all season … We don’t want to apologize, but the last months have been really difficult for the football club. We did not have a lot of bodies and the physio room was full of senior players. »»
The 28 -year -old’s remarks seemed to refer to the lack of Tottenham transfer activity in the context of a long list of injuries in 2024/25.
“I hope there are a few who appreciated that I am the winner of the match today!” 👀🤫
