That is the motivation. We are in a situation that we can still get out of and we are motivated to achieve that."

Tottenham Hotspur

Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou on James Maddison's absence from Spurs' squad: "He was still a bit sore from the other night (against Hoffenheim), it took a fair bit out of the group. He wasn't 100% so yeah he misses out today. Hopefully he should be alright for next week."

Four of James Maddison's last five Premier League appearances have been off the bench. Tottenham fans may rate him, but is appears from the outside anyway that Ange Postecoglou may not.
