JAMES MADDISON says he is using his England Euros snub as "fuel" and is "desperate" to get back to his best for Tottenham this season.
Maddison was the first player cut from Gareth Southgate's provisional Euro 2024 squad in June following a disappointing second half of the campaign with Spurs.
The 27-year-old was last night back at his former club and back to something like his best, as Ange Postecoglou's side began the season with a frustrating 1-1 draw at Leicester.
He created Spurs' goal for Pedro Porro before Jamie Vardy equalised in the second half.
Asked if he had a point to prove this term, Maddison told Standard Sport: "Of course. Setbacks are set-ups for comebacks, I've seen that quote somewhere! It's how you deal with adversity.
My network around me, my parents, partner, agent, the manager, they wouldn't let me dwell on that. I knew I would come back with a hunger.
"I knew I'd be ready by game one to have a good season.
