James Maddison makes annoying claim regarding Tottenham and the PL title race

The Premier League is poised to have an enthralling finish to the season, possibly the closest title run-in we have seen in the modern era. Three clubs, one championship, and those three look far apart and better than the rest of the seventeen when they take the field. This is turning out to be a season for the history books.

While the supporters of those three clubs bite their nails following one another, it is a race that neutrals would enjoy and be dedicated to. Hopefully, this goes down to the final day of the season. All the drama, all the jitters—this is why the Premier League is marketed as the best football league in the world. 

While the League enjoys a historic season, Tottenham Hotspur are enjoying a progressive season. It has been a season of taking new roads on the Hotspur Way, and we have seen some impeccable progress made since Ange Postecoglou took over the reins at White Hart Lane.

James Maddison gives his perspective on the title race

Tottenham midfielder James Maddison has been an integral part of the improvement made at the club, and he is seen as a key to this Spurs side going forward. The England international has found his feet since moving to North London, and the former Leicester City midfielder recently spoke about the title race.

James Maddison, via. The Mirror, spoke about how he has no interest in this season’s Premier League title race while all of his friends and family are deeply invested in it.

“I’ve got no interest to be honest [in Spurs’ impact on the title race],” said Maddison. “We’ve got our own goals for the season and I’m not bothered. If we end up winning games against teams that are in that race, it makes no difference. We’ve got a job to do.

“It’s annoying really, listening to three teams go at it for the title and we’re not in it, especially after the start of the season we had.

“How exciting is the title race this season? It’s amazing, it’s brilliant for a neutral. My friends and family, everyone is locked into the Premier League every week at the minute because it’s such a good title race.

“Frustrating not to be a part of that but we are where we are and we have our own job to do.”

It is good ambition to think about your own games and focus on qualifying for the Champions League for the next year while progressing as a team. Though it could get a bit frustrating to play in the PL and not be part of all the talks and conversations held around it, that being said, Tottenham are on a journey of their own while the PL is witnessing a historic title race this season nonetheless.
