Maddison wants to win for loyal fans

The Journal

May 01, 2025

JAMES Maddison has been left hurt by the latest “embarrassing” chapter in Tottenham’s Premier League campaign, but stressed the inner drive of everyone at the club to reward the fanbase with Europa League success.

A much-changed Spurs side suffered a 5-1 thrashing at Liverpool on Sunday and in the process tasted defeat for a record-equalling 19th time in the division this season.

Tottenham have not experienced so many losses in a Premier League campaign since 2004 and while more unwanted records could tumble, Ange Postecoglou’s squad still have the chance to win a first trophy in 17 years, with Bodo/Glimt set to visit in a Europa League last-four first-leg tie tonight.

"We definitely want to reward them for the support that they give us by creating something special because the league hasn’t been good enough, definitely, but it hurts us as well," Maddison said.

"Let's not create the narrative that yes, it’s us players out there and we take responsibility for that, but it hurts me a lot that we're having a poor season.
