Tottenham playmaker James Maddison hopes his goal against Brentford "shuts up a few people", but reiterated it is all about the team after Saturday's 3-1 victory.

Maddison crowned a superb display with a fine chipped effort in the 85th minute to clinch the points after first-half efforts by Dominic Solanke and Brennan Johnson cancelled out Bryan Mbeumo's 22-second opener.
