Tottenham midfielder James Maddison hopes manager Ange Postecoglou will play him in his preferred position.

Maddison arrived in the summer from Leicester City.

He said, "Gareth (Southgate, England manager) has said I can play in that forward line as well. I don't think means I am a forward. I'll play anywhere. Over the years at Leicester I've probably played in six different positions.

"Anywhere in the front line or the midfield line, at some point I've played in all of them. I played as an eight the other day in a 4-3-3. If that's what the manager wants me to do that's what I'll do.

"If he wants me to play on the left wing that's what I'll do. if he wants me to play right back that's what I'll do. (Postecoglou shakes his head) I'm hoping he doesn't but I'll work if he does. I'll play wherever but my strengths are between the lines and I hope that's going to be enough to get me in the team."
