Co-commentator Glen Hoddle has given his praise towards Son Heung-Min after he produced a fine against Marcelo Bielsa’s side this afternoon.
Son has been one of Spurs’ stand-out performers this campaign, with 15 goal contributions in 21 Premier League games, and carried on that fine form against Leeds – especially in the first half.
Hoddle commented on the South Korea’s display live on BT Sport: “He (Son) is such a good player, he (Luke Ayling) knows that he drags you all over the pitch and creates a whole lot of space.”
TIF Thoughts on Glen Hoddle’s comments…
Harry Kane attempted to force a move away from Spurs in the summer but the failure of the transfer has had a knock-on effect on his form on the pitch. But Son has not failed to supply the goods for Spurs and has a player rating of 7.32 over the past seven games, according to Sofascore.
Son and Kane have been a lethal duo in recent seasons and equaled the most prolific Premier League duos after they combined to score their 36th goal as a pair.
The South Korea international has been given the license to play anywhere along with the front three, which has proven difficult for defenders to deal with, and that continued this afternoon with Luke Ayling.
