Maddison Backs Postecoglou as Spurs Face Bodo/Glimt

Tottenham Hotspur midfielder James Maddison has reaffirmed his full support for manager Ange Postecoglou, even as the club faces mounting pressure following a heavy 5-1 defeat to Liverpool that marked their record-equalling 19th league loss of the season. Maddison expressed embarrassment at the team's Premier League form but emphasized the players' unity behind Postecoglou and their determination to end a 17-year trophy drought. The squad is focused on their upcoming Europa League semi-final against Bodo/Glimt, viewing it as an opportunity to salvage their season and reward loyal fans. Maddison highlighted collective responsibility for their poor domestic campaign and urged the team to block out external speculation about the manager's future. Reports suggest that even winning the Europa League might not guarantee Postecoglou's position, but Maddison reiterated his respect for the manager and the squad's commitment. The team remains motivated to achieve European success amid ongoing domestic struggles.
