Hasn't played well so far this season but I am sure he will bounce back.

If we had a strong midfield I don't think it will be a problem.He always plays poorly against Chelsea. They know how to shut him down.
The way to stop Son is to have a decent defender man mark him throughout the game (Reece James) and put constant pressure on him, making him play with his back to goal. That's all there is to it.
Son still hasn't been able to find a way to crack Chelsea. But in all fairness to him, it doesn't help that we were getting slammed until Richarlison sort of opened up the game for us by applying pressure up top.
Son is at fault cos he played crap, just like Kane and others. It's not about not scoring he could have a 10/10 game without scoring.Spurs never won in Stamford Bridge since 1830 or something and Son is at fault because he doesn't score a bunch when he plays them?

He wasn't at fault for the performance but he was part of it, as like the rest of our forward players he was garbage yesterday, and Reece James had him in his pocket other than one run in the first half. As good as he was against Southampton I thought that Kulusevski was the worst of the front three against Chelsea though. Did nothing but hang on to the ball far too long and lose it any time he got it. All three were trash going by the standards they set for themselves, but the focus, as always, seems to be on Kane. Despite the fact that he got us the point.Spurs never won in Stamford Bridge since 1830 or something and Son is at fault because he doesn't score a bunch when he plays them?

Great player in bad game shocker. Our forward line were stifled with zero attacking support from the wing backs and the midfield essentially out of the game, so not an easy game for anyone to do well in. Especially up against Reece James.
Will never get the urge people have to drop him. He was the league's top scorer last season without pens. Liverpool don't drop Salah every single time he has a poor match because they know long term its worth having him on the pitch more often than not.
he didnt really have a bad game? did you actually watch it? whats going through your head when hes losing the ball every time he gets it? whats going through your head when he loses the ball for their first goal? whats going through your head when hes out of position for their second goal? are you actually watching the games? is anything actually going through your head?Agree. He didn’t even really have a bad game. He didn’t really get any opportunities.
How many times did he receive the ball in the final third?he didnt really have a bad game? did you actually watch it? whats going through your head when hes losing the ball every time he gets it? whats going through your head when he loses the ball for their first goal? whats going through your head when hes out of position for their second goal? are you actually watching the games? is anything actually going through your head?
Kane scored today and got the team a point at a hostile ground. Can't really say now he never deliver in big games. I always said the reason why he doesn't seem to score in big games is not because he for some magical reason can't do it in big games its more because the big teams in big games are usually able to shut him down and hence shut the Harry Kane team Spurs.

probably not a lot due to him losing the ball every time in the 2nd third. so the build up kept collpasing and not allowing us to get that highHow many times did he receive the ball in the final third?
No, Son was at fault not because of not scoring.Spurs never won in Stamford Bridge since 1830 or something and Son is at fault because he doesn't score a bunch when he plays them?
Agree. He didn’t even really have a bad game. He didn’t really get any opportunities.
Come on, if we play 5-2-3 it is absolutely impossible that we could expect THREE players to just wait to "get opportunities in final third". It should be very plan and obvious.How many times did he receive the ball in the final third?
