Maddison pays emotional tribute to Postecoglou after Spurs sacking

Attacking midfielder, James Maddison has paid a touching tribute to former Manager Ange Postecoglou after he was sacked as Spurs Manager, despite lifting the UEFA Europa League trophy.

Postecoglou spent two seasons in charge of Spurs, guiding them to a fifth-place finish in his first EPL campaign. However, their league form was awful last season as Spurs finished just one place above the relegation zone and suffered 22 defeats.

Despite that victory, Spurs decided to axe Postecoglou and are now looking for a new manager. The likes of Brentford boss Thomas Frank, Fulham’s Marco Silva and Bournemouth’s manager Andoni Iraola are among of host of Managers to replace Ange.

It remains to be seen who ultimately becomes Spurs’ next manager, but a number of players have penned emotional farewell messages to Postecoglou. James, who was one of Postecoglou’s first signings at the club, wrote on social media: “Gaffer, where to start. Firstly, thank you for bringing me to this wonderful club that I now call my home.

“Your instant belief in me to not only sign me but make me the clubs vice-captain & part of the leadership group from the get-go is something I’ll always be thankful for, he ended.
