Nice upper body strength, he can shield himself similar to Kane and protect possession. Everyone knows how dangerous his left foot is, was unlucky vs Burnley too.

Looks made for the league. We look so much better an attacking unit with him in the side.

Think we might have got a bit of a bargain here. He never had any rhythm at Juve and was played out of position so they never saw the best of him, whereas he seems tailor made for us.

Has a great way of making the game play at his own pace. Has the strength and tenacity for the league to match the technical ability. I always feel we look best with a more technical link up player to compliment the pacey one out wide. We used Modric and Eriksen in off the left to great effect. Having a left wand player on the right is better for us now though as Son is best left side.

That goal reminded me a little of Kane’s goal v Arsenal. Coming in from the corner and slotting it home. Outrageous

He’s been very good but he’s just not very nice to watch in the ways players like Son are ? looks so awkward a bit like Kane can at times when he’s not at his best

Looks after the ball very well.
For someone who is only 21 his football intelligence is top. That’s what playing for Juve for a few seasons and learning from ronaldo etc will do for you.

Very pleased with how he's adapting. It's so refreshing to see new signings come in an actually play. I remember under the Poche years having to wait 84 years for a new signing to get a game. The lad is a bulky unit which seems to be suiting him well in the EPL. Wand of a left-foot doesn't hurt either. Hopefully a sign of more to come.

Goals are wonderful but man it’s so awesome having another strong player that can hold the ball up that also has a footballing brain in attack.

I really really like him.

He looks to have it all really, only 21 too.

He’s strong, excellent technically, intelligent and can score and create. Such an upgrade on Moura it really is.

Really good again today. Looks to be full of goals and assists (despite his stats at Juve), good interplay and also contributes well out of possession.

If he can improve on the timing of his runs (unnecessarily offside by half a yard 2-3 times per game when in loads of space on the RW), he'll be even more of an attacking threat. Hopefully just a matter of getting used to his teammates.

Do we have a proper front 3 now? When does the Son, Kane, Bale thread get changed to the Son, Kane and Kulu thread?

More end product in about 4 appearances than Lucas has shown in about 100+

This is the type of player we’ve been needing since Eriksen left and since Bale didn’t re sign for this season.
