Tottenham midfielder James Maddison commented on the defeat against Everton (2:3) in the 22nd round of the English championship.
James Maddison, Getty Images"We are going through a difficult period, that is undeniable. It was a tough day. They played quite straightforwardly, but we need to defend better. We are in a tough situation with a very depleted squad, but that is no excuse for the first half.
We only had 11 healthy experienced players ready to start the match. That has its context. However, the first half was unacceptable. Fans have the right to criticize, and that is fair. The supporters probably don’t want to hear many words from me, they want to see a reaction,” quotes Maddison the Spurs press service.
