stunning today, was unplayable. Favourite moment was when he recieved the ball outwide and just totally backed the everton fullback all the way to his own five yard box. He had Kenny on a string all game long, an absolute menance.

He has the potential to become one of Spurs' greatest players IMO.
How strange it is how he is never mentioned as a possible target for the 'bigger' clubs!

My favourite player not just because of his pace, skill and finishing but he is just such a top man whenever interviewed, totally self effacing and humble. Love him.

I really hope you lot are having a laugh.

I dont get how "heading" would actual help Son's game all that much.

ll he could juggle the ball on his head as he weaves his way past defenders. Might give them a chance of stopping him

It's great how the press and pundits seem totally unaware that he is absolutely one of our best players. They don't fee compelled to be speaking about how he needs to be paid more wages or will move to a bigger club lol

He does have the South Korean Military commitment hanging over his head. He needs to figure out a waiver - this world cup is probably his last opportunity from a team perspective. Not sure if he could earn a waiver via individual accomplishments - he has been Asia International Player of the year a couple of times, and South Korean Footballer of the Year 3 times.

Playing at a ridiculous level right now. Long may it continue.

Quick, good football brain and has a great shot off of both feet. Even better he does it with a smile on his face.

Get that contract sorted ASAP!

Agree with this

He is a real joy to watch and judging by that huge smile he often has, it looks like he is really enjoying himself.

100% agree, especially with the interviews. One of my mates is a staunch West Ham fan and he said he saw Son interviewed last week and he became a fan. He said he was so humble and and was a pleasure to listen to.

This is today’s interview. Really like this one, he just oozes happiness.

It's because he's enjoying himself so much out there, it's infectious. Always playing with such a bloody great smile, it must be lovely having talent that's natural enough that you can enjoy yourself when there's so many players frowning and working so hard. He just makes it look effortlessly good fun.
