Tottenham midfielder James Maddison has disclosed that he’ll have to be at his best against Bodo/Glimt in tomorrow’s Europa League first leg semi-finals clash.
With four matches remaining of a woeful top-flight campaign, Tottenham’s season rests on the Europa League as they attempt to make their way to the final to meet either Manchester United or Atletico Bilbao.
Speaking with the club’s website, Maddison stated that the team must show more hunger and determination against Bodo/Glimt.
“It’s huge. When you get to the end of your career and you look back, there’s not many times a player has been in European semi-finals. Maybe once or twice if you are lucky.

“We need to use that – we are in the final four in a massive competition in Europe and use that to have a great tie on Thursday and in Bodo as well.
“We’ve got a real special opportunity. There’s obviously been a lot of talk about form and being a poor season, but we have the opportunity to do something very special. We’ve earned it and we deserve to be here. It is a challenge we are going to relish.
“My job as a senior player is to almost not accept the fact that we were poor and we cannot go forward like that because the league is important and it gives you momentum for Europe, but also have the feeling of trying to put it to one side.
“We’ve got a lot of young players, we need positivity and you want them to feel good and ready to go into Thursday. Trying to get a nice feel about the group, it’s a balancing act.”
