James Maddison says ‘outstanding’ Tottenham teammate was the real difference maker vs Man United
James Maddison looked delighted to be front and centre of Tottenham Hotspur’s much needed win over Manchester United in the Premier League.
Maddison was criticised by Roy Keane this week who declared that the Tottenham midfielderܫ wouldn’t be the player to change things once he returned from injury.
However, it was the England international who react🎶ed first when Andre Onana pushed Lucas Bergvall’s shot into a dangerous area.
And despite Man United’s best attempts, the likes of Alejandro Garnacho weren😼’t able to get Ruben Amorim’s depleted ♍side level.
It was a rare occasion that Tottenham were able to turn to their bench to strengthen their chances of winning whilst their opposition were almost restricted to🐬 their starting eleven.
And in truth, Amorim’s side probably deserved s♌ome credit for how they battled given the circumstances.
James Maddison praises Guglielmo Vicario for being Tottenham’s difference maker
Putting the focus back on Spurs, Maddison spoke to after the game for an extended period, seemingly referencing Keane’s comments at one stage without namin🎶g him.
And amongst the chat, Maddison had some praise for Italian teammate Guglielmo Vicario who was extr🌞emely assured on his return to goal for Tottenham.

Maddison spoke about how those returning ♋from injury can take the pressure off of players who have been playing week in, week out and 🐟Vicario certainly did do that for young Antonin Kinsky.
Maddison said: “It’s nice to be an injured player coming back, I know I didn’t have too much time out, only a couple of we🐻eks, but to take the pressure off them and give them a rest,ꦺ give the other lads a boost.
“I thought Vicario was outstanding as well, mad💝e a difference co💞ming back in.
“So it’s about us being present now and leading like they did, even amongst a bad run th𓆉ey were still there꧒, they were still present, recovering, they were still living right to try and give us the best chance of winning – we had a bit of a bad run of form, but there’s obviously factors to that.
“It’s nice to be back and add a bit of a bolster to a squad with some injuries and s📖ee some happy faces.”
Vicario proves his worth on injury return
It has to be said that Vicario looked very confid🦹ent on his return to the Tottenha♔m Hotspur Stadium.
Vicario has always been a great shotstopper and a goalಌkeeper who can cope with the ball aꩵt his feet, but his presence at set-pieces has sometimes been alarming.
That being said, the It🍬alian dea🐠lt with United’s deliveries into his box superbly, and saved well from the likes of Garnacho once or twice.
Kinskℱy hasn’t been poor by any means, but Vicario proved why hไe’s Tottenham’s number one.
An excellent result for Spurs, even if they still have a lot of progress to make as they continue to recover players from꧙ injury.
