Coventry City's James Maddison has said that he is not going to change the way he plays.
Maddison back after four months out with injury told the Coventry Telegraph: “I’m not going to change.
“I like to see myself as a more attacking player but if I have got to go and do a job for the team and smash someone in the tackle then I am happy to do that as well.
“I have watched the tackle back a few times and I think I just had a loose touch, which is unlike me because my touch is usually quite tight.
“So I was facing a 50-50 which I was happy to go in for because I know that playing in this league the gaffer wants me to go smashing into those tackles.
“It’s not something I enjoy doing but you have to do it for the team and on this occasion it was just unfortunate that I got injured. It was bad luck if I am honest and if I had to do it again I would probably still go into the tackle.
“It’s one of those things and it happens in football. Because of the way I play I am going to have to take a few knocks in my career but I am happy to take the kicks and go in for tackles because it’s part of the game.
“It was great to be back out on the pitch.
“The way I play I like to tease tackles and it’s part of playing in League One so I am happy to take those kicks.
“The result wasn’t what I was looking for but it is nice to be playing again with the lads and feeling good."
