Tottenham Hotspur will be bouncing into their next game following what was a really impressive win over Everton.

Any concerns that lingered from the draw on Monday against Leicester City will have been forgotten by Ange Postecoglou with Tottenham looking mightily impressive.

The Lilywhites were clinical against the Toffees with Spurs taking a two-goal lead within the opening 25 minutes of the game.

Tottenham have put themselves among the top four following their victory on Saturday as they now prepare for a trip north to face Newcastle United.

It would be difficult to narrow down one standout player from the game in north London but it was apparent James Maddison was impressed by one, in particular.

James Maddison shares his verdict on Wilson Odobert’s Tottenham debut

Spurs have operated carefully in this summer’s transfer market with Postecoglou only bringing in players he really feels are suited to the club.

Tottenham’s business in the summer transfer window may now be completed following their fifth addition of the market.

Wilson Odobert was the latest Spurs signing made and he was handed his debut at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium against the Blues.

The French winger was unavailable for the game on Monday night against the Foxes as he was awaiting his work permit to return.

However, he was ready to go on Saturday and Postecoglou wasted no time in bringing him straight into the starting XI.

Following the game, Odobert posted on his Instagram account where he said: ‘What a feeling to make my debut at home with a big win thank you all for your support we keep going.’

With the Spurs youngster impressing on his debut, vice-captain Maddison took to the comments to share his thoughts on Odobert’s display: ‘Sharp,’ replied the Spurs midfielder.

Ange Postecoglou says Maddison and Odobert have formed a strong partnership

Maddison has struggled over the large majority of this year to find his absolute best form in a Spurs shirt.

However, he has had a full summer of rest to come back for the 2024/25 campaign full recharged after being left out of Gareth Southgate’s England squad.

But it seems as if the addition of the £25m Odobert could well be a signing which could help to bring the best out of Maddison this season.

Postecoglou has already said he was impressed by the synergy Maddison and Odobert showed in their first game together on Saturday.

“He [Maddison] had a really good synergy with Wilson early on, they worked really well together. And then he made some great runs,” Postecoglou said.
