Tottenham’s injury crisis has seen them drop to 15th in the Premier League – amid a run of five defeats from their last six fixtures in the division – and yet under-pressure boss Postecoglou has guided them into the Carabao Cup semi-finals and guaranteed a Europa League knock-out berth.
Maddison’s fine strike in Germany ended a run of six games without a goal and he will aim to deliver against former side Leicester, who have lost seven in a row in the league.
Ange Postecoglou will hope to see Tottenham vice-captain James Maddison step up again with more “moments” in Sunday’s crucial Premier League fixture with ex-club Leicester.
Spurs were without 14 players for Thursday’s trip to Hoffenheim due to a combination of injuries and ineligibility, but Maddison scored and set up Son Heung-min to help inspire a much-needed 3-2 away win.
“Again, it’s been a gripe for him as well, because with the team and the way it’s going at the moment, he’s another one I have tried to manage as best as I can, (rather than) him play every game.
