Maddison urges Leicester perspective after past season

Leicester City midfielder James Maddison has urged perspective after the past season.

The Foxes reached the Europa Conference League semifinal, losing to eventual winners Roma.

Maddison said: "We're really happy to finish on a high, finish with three points, and finish with goals for the fans, who have been brilliant for us all season. If people are looking back and saying we had a bad season, finishing eighth and in a European semi-final, Leicester are obviously on the up.

"A few years ago, if you offered eighth in the Premier League and a European semi-final, they'd had bit your hand off. It's all relative. It's a season where we know we could have done better and we look back on with probably a bit of hurt because of losing the semi-final and not qualifying for Europe.

"Realistically, if you look at it relatively, it's a positive season in terms of where the Club's going. We'll look to bounce back and go again next year."
