Player Heung-Min Son (손흥민)

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

If Son wasnt Spurs this entire forum would be laughing it up at a gooner player crying week in week out. THAT IS FACT.

So spare me the moral superiority. I do not care that a player cries during a football game EVERY week. To me its funny. There is so much worse going on in the world.

Son needs to focus on his football skills and less on his cry-acting skills.

I feel bad for your parents.

My parents taught me emotional responsibility. Just because Heung Min Son cries doesnt make him a victim or hero. Take for instance Sons karate kick on Rudiger. He lashed out in anger like a child and then cried when he got caught and reprimanded/red carded (exactly like a child)

They would have been dissapointed for not being able to control my emotions through violent conduct, letting my team down for getting sent off and then crying crocodile tears after refusing to accept my wrongdoing.

No L to take. You dont have to search far online to see loads think the same way. As per my original post, I dont have a problem with men crying. So theres no need to throw anything away. Son could win awards for his crying routines.

Also people that say “men just need to cry more” tend to be the most toxic passive aggressive types that use that same thing against men depending on their ‘political views’ see Deuterz Deuterz post for example, babbling on about Joe Rogan, a podcaster that helps millions of mens mental health.

so take your fake outrage and stick it

I see instead of owning it, apologising and deleting your post, you've decided to double down on being ignorant.

Disappointing, but I cannot say that I am surprised.

On a positive note, it's good to see that the majority of posters have disagreed with or call you out on this shit.

We are meant to be fans and not Accountants or board members concerned with the club finances. All that should matter to us fans is will buying a particular player make us better next season and will selling a particular player make us stronger because he is a liability when selected. Whilst the likes of Lo Celso are effectively gone, the core squad at the club will normally mean that if we bring someone in then someone goes. So in the case of Royal if we replaced him then there is a good chance the replacement will be better although we believed that when Trippier and Aurier left. However the case that if Son leaves that the replacement will be better is not so clear. Come the end of the season it may be clearer but I would never want the club to sell to cash in on a particular player. Part of Son’s problem is the way Conte is asking him to play and Conte needs to solve that problem. At the very worst he no longer is first choice and is on the bench where I would be surprised if we found a better player to sit on the bench. Just look at our problem in bringing in a Kane replacement.

So in short Joe Rogans 'Helping'
And Son's a useless cry baby wanker......

 
If he wants to go we should try to get as much as we can for him.
Counting his form aside, it wouldn’t be a bad time to cash out and invest that money on some younger players this summer. Asian players don’t have the same physicality as other counterparts. Look at Park Jisung from man Utd, his knee gave away completely at 32 or so. You don’t see too many Asian players playing beyond 33. Highly doubt Son is any different
There are many Asian players that play beyond 33. Just not in Europe. There us a Japanese guy who is in his 50 and is still playing in the J league. But Son is different from those lower tier players.

I do agree if he wants to go we need to get as much as we can for him since he is 30 now.

I get what you are saying.

But it is not about being accountant or counting money. It is about progress and future. Sometimes in order to move towards brighter future, you might have to let go of some of the past. It is stated number of times here how we hold on to present which cost us the future. Namely - Dele. For money we might have sold him for, we could have brought in technically brilliant player with right mentality to provide us with joy and pride in the future.

I love what Son has done for the club. And I would be so very happy if he gets back this groove and form. This would benefit the club and bring joy to us all. I just do not feel that "Part of Son’s problem is the way Conte is asking him to play" - he did well last season. And now - he is just giving the ball away cheaply, losing the ball on the dribble and making quite basic mistakes. I hope he snaps out of it and continues to bang them in though.
 
He is done and this should be clear by now. He didn't just have ao-so run this season, he literally was shy*** 99,99% of the time so far and the whole team suffer cause he is killing every single attack. We are not talking that he ain't scoring, but we are talking as he can't beat a player 1 on 1, extra heavy touches and can't win a ball from enemy player, we can't press with him and he is giving away the ball for free. He is terrible at first ball as well. And with our system our WBs and wingers are 1000% crucial. And people were even blaming Conte forr his form, glad that he perform so much better at the WC, oh well.... Yeah he was still shy***, so obviously who is at blame.
Waiting on him for what 2 season, so we get nothing in return and waste what 2 more season, expecting him to find his forn, which won't happen....
