Ex-Spurs Player Heung-Min Son (손흥민)

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

People are telling me now they'll watch MLS...

I'm not supporting the MLS - I have no connection to LA Galaxy except for Sonny... I've been there, and that place is a shithole - the whole of Cali, I don't like.

The same goes for Messi - I didn't watch PSG when he joined...didn't again when he joined MLS...

Didn't support Real Madrid as I'm Barça - with Bale as the same with Modric...

I do wish him the best but for me it's done - I'll keep tabs like any ex-player (even though i'm Barça I saw Madrid often) I aint buying fukkin LA GALAXY merch - grosss...

I have watched Bayern before Kane went there but is what it is...

I don't even know who their rivals are? MemphisWill MemphisWill does such a thing exist?

Met the man a handful of times go forth my guy & fukk that league up!

LAFC
 
There's a certain cutesy-ness to it and everything that has always surrounded Son that we'll do well to allow out the door with him, the club in general needs a very different ruthlessness about it.

But the whole smiley sunshine Son thing and his emotional devotion to the club is and has always been 100% genuine, you can't fault him for that.

And there was never anything cute or cuddly about being the fullback up against Son, that's for damn sure.
I think you underestimate how ruthless he actually was. Don’t mistake a gent off the field for a thoroughly ruthless professional and a captain in the dressing room that deserved the spot and pushed people forward. Just not in a John Terry obvious I’m a cunt aggressive way, In Sonny’s way and I know which I’d prefer all day long. I’d buy another Sonny for the club in a heartbeat and welcome the cutesy ness if we got the rest as well. . and I will never be happy that that kind of fella has left the club. He left this wonderful club even better than it was for him being here. How many players are completely respected by every other player and fan regardless of club. That takes some doing and personally I can’t think of another. Sonny was ours and always will be. If I got the opportunity to ever meet him I would give him a full Korean style slow bow. Not many men I’d do that for. He’s in my top 3 spurs legends and I reckon that’s the same for so many fans. For me, way ahead of H. I don’t think we will quite see the like of him again, a totally unique man, the complete professional and most importantly a fucking class human.
 
That's how much I give a flying fukk about the MLS...

I hope there's no more videos to come, I have no more tears. I honestly didn't expect to be so upset about him leaving, as the timing couldn't have been more perfect. Maybe it's because we recognise that Sonny is a genuine human being who put the Club's needs before himself and is not afraid to show his feelings.
I suppose there are some people who think it's all a bit maudlin and OTT. However, supporting a football team is not a logical exercise, it is sheer emotion and when a player shows the same love for the team we support, it creates a special bond, as it doesn't happen that often.
Will always love you Sonny, as the Club said, "Thank you will never be enough".

A beautiful person, a beautiful career and the most beautiful way to say goodbye to his time at the club as a European champion, a captain, taking away all those years of frustration and hurt.

Nice one Sonny, nice one Son. Its as poetic as you deserved it to be for your loyalty, sincerity, authenticity and impact on our football club.

An embodiment of the beautiful game. You deserve this way to close the chapter above anyone I can think of. Delighted the stars aligned for him to do so. Magic still exists ✨️ in this game we love.

Well done, he'll always be in any true Tottenham Hotspur supporters hearts.

Oh there's going to be as many as those wish to make money from the clicks.

He was innit!
 
Son is the very epitome of a club legend. Worked hard, never complained and led his team to a major trophy. He left at the right time - when the job was done.

On the other hand, Kane who was club trained since a kid abandoned Spurs in his prime in search of individual glory and guaranteed trophies.

I completely agree I've met Sonny many times but please use paragraphs easier to read 10/10
 
People are telling me now they'll watch MLS...

I'm not supporting the MLS - I have no connection to LA Galaxy except for Sonny... I've been there, and that place is a shithole - the whole of Cali, I don't like.

The same goes for Messi - I didn't watch PSG when he joined...didn't again when he joined MLS...

Didn't support Real Madrid as I'm Barça - with Bale as the same with Modric...

I do wish him the best but for me it's done - I'll keep tabs like any ex-player (even though i'm Barça I saw Madrid often) I aint buying fukkin LA GALAXY merch - grosss...

I have watched Bayern before Kane went there but is what it is...

I don't even know who their rivals are? MemphisWill MemphisWill does such a thing exist?

Wait, the whole of Cali is a shithole, you realize it is bigger than the entire UK right. You don’t like California? Based on what—spending 48 hours stuck in LA traffic? That’s like judging Europe after a layover in Heathrow. California isn’t just LA—it’s world-class ski resorts in Tahoe and Mammoth, ancient redwood forests up north, Yosemite and Sequoia National Parks, the vineyards of Napa and Sonoma, the rugged coastline of Big Sur, the deserts of Joshua Tree, the beaches of San Diego, and the tech capital of the world in Silicon Valley. It’s basically an entire continent masquerading as a state. So yeah—if you didn’t like California, chances are you barely saw it

Well I'm not MLS fan, but Son has signed for LAFC. Their rival would be LA Galaxy.

Not going to start watching LAFC or anything, and like you I don't follow former players who move on except in passing.

I will probably drive up to St. Louis in about 6 weeks to see Son play again.
