Don't want to be too harsh on Son, who's obviously a little low on confidence at the moment, but I do feel you're just reaching here to support your argument that we don't need to buy another striker (unless it's an "uber-striker") we can play Son or Chadli there.Son - I thought he did fine, especially for a guy making a rare ad hoc start, against a Leicester sat deep, and we've all seen Kane bumble about pretty unproductively so lets not pretend the chasm was that wide in what he offered compared to Kane. His energy was good, his work of the ball was good and he saw plenty of it in approach play and build up. And when Kane came on absolutely nothing changed and we looked no more like creating anything of quality.
He did OK, but he was just playing like a midfielder most of the time, no real movement into dangerous areas, or movement in the box.
