Son Heung-min @ Tottenham Hotspur FC 2019-2020 [R]

Thought he did well in the first half. But in the 2nd , man move the fcking ball forward. 3-4 occasions where he passed back and united got the ball back.

 

Sucks that Dier was having one of the better games of his career before being undone by Pogba there. Also, Lamela did have an overall solid game (esp def), but those two times he could've easily sprung Son loose and held the ball were pretty frustrating to watch.

 

My god, what a moronic false choice.

 

Gedson...i hope so

 

he aint no Lee Dong Gook, that's for sure.

 

That's the choice they made, not mine

 

Two times? The dude is a Son hater. He does it ALL THE TIME.

 

@BENJMNS Okay guess I’m not the only one who feels that way as well. There isn’t much of a chemistry between them. They really needed Dele cause if he was in Lamela’s position, dele would of pin pointed that pass to Son cause of their connection. Honestly I wonder if he has some sort of grudge against son, cause back in the day it was those two who would always battle for that last attacking midfield spot, because he has now ended up now on the bench watching son get the limelight.

 

Starting vs West Ham

 

what a joke

 

Sonny's goal at 45 called offside by mere inches.

 

Assist

 

Perfect placement from Son for the Kane assist. Wasn't asked to do much today as WHU was parking the bus and playing in their own half. Tottenham dominated passes, possession, corners, shots on goal, etc. Not too worried about Sonny, he was unlucky with the offside goal, but overall his fitness looks great post-break and I'm sure he'll be back to scoring soon. I believe that's the 9th assist and still #1 on team in assists this season

Also, I like Lamela as a sub way more than him starting, he was lively in winning back balls even though he was wasteful with his 2-3 chances in the box. Bergwijn looks a lot better than Moura, may have fitness issues though so I was alright with the Lucas start despite his very subpar play today.

 

till that goal, Kane was off...way off.

 

Yeah but he's much rustier than everyone else, he's been out since New Years due to injury + hasn't been able to train as much. That curling pass to Dele was nearly a front-page highlight all over Reddit. Historically, Kane has went on goal scoring tears after every single return from injury and it's promising he got one today even though an in-form Kane would have easily gotten a hat today.

Much more worried about Ndombele not even sniffing playing time (locker room problem? If it's still fitness related, that's a terrible sign) and the future signing window problems of getting an actual Mourinho style defense + backup striker for HK

 

Got his 10th assist in all competitions this season. I think it might of been his first season with 10+ goals 10 assist. Needs 4 more goals to make it a 20 and 10 season which would be sweet

 

He looks like he’s still struggling with fitness, which makes sense considering how long he’s been out injured.

More concerned that he’s playing out full games and not getting subbed. Recipe for another injury IMO

 

if he get's subbed in, then he might body slam Jose.

 

Yes it is, after harsh statements from Mourinho, Ndombele decided not to play for Tottenham anymore (as long as Mourinho will be in charge)

 

I’ll only buy it if he doesn’t get a single minute next game against Sheffield.
