Fuck Sake.
Glad you’re on the ball!!
I must admit I thought they had put Bentacour in charge of their team photos and his photoshoot with Sonny in the away strip had gone predictably wrong!!

So happy for you my boy, he's lighting up the MLS. He left at the perfect time for both parties.

You do love this particular gif...intresting.
Went to see our legend play for LAFC on Sunday. Not exactly a classic — 1-0 winner in the 86th minute — but great seeing the big man out there again. Atmosphere was pretty good for an MLS game. Been to LA Galaxy before and it was pony — felt more like being in a choreographed crowd scene from Glee than a football match. The Mexicans at LAFC love a sing-song; even had to ask a hombre what they were chanting, apparently it is “Dale, dale, dale, black and gold”
Apologies for the shaky camera work — it was an evening game, and I might’ve started my “warm-up” a bit early. Also fuck Giroud.

Well I’d say it’s more of an observation on our Uurguayan midfielders inability to differentiate faces of an Asian likeness.
And these people all look the same to me a lot of people.
Join the fight!!

Up to 9 goals (in 10 games) in the MLS, great to see him doing so well!

Really enjoying himself out there isn't he, the league is a piece of piss for him but it's nice to see him smile again.
that’s exactly where you want him to receive the ball in motion, not stuck out on the touchline.
Noticed from the games I've watched him - he no longer does his trademark 'Photo Celebration' much.
I maybe wrong as I've only seen 4 full 90's of his MLS matches.
Nearly scored a similar goal last season against arguably the best defence in the world. That was from an even harder position. So saying that this is just because the league is poor is incorrect. He could still do it if he was here.

Cheers for reminding us of that game, look forward to watching that back
So happy for him that he is having a whale of a time out there, but sad that he's no longer doing that for us.
He timed his departure to perfection and is now in a league where he can carry on playing at his best.

Son Heung-min’s legacy: Asian fans are Tottenham for life after trailblazing impact
South Korean may have moved on after a decade at Spurs but the Asian fans he drew to the club are staying put

What a fcuking legacy.
Without doubt our Asian advisor of the future
Legend.
That rather unpleasant opening with the nasty Villa fan is a strange way for a journalist to start a peice about the positive long lasting impact of Son at Spurs. We really are constantly catching strays. Racist gonna racist( despite how hard some pretend they dont exsist) not sure why it needs to be highlighted in such an otherwise positive relationship.Son Heung-min’s legacy: Asian fans are Tottenham for life after trailblazing impact

He’s probably a year too young for that league. He could still do a job in the PL for somebody.
Perhaps not to the level of his prime but he’d still be a squad player for many PL teams.

The fact that he somehow had 23 goal contributions in all competitions last season gives one pause as to whether he is really washed. But then if someone like Richarlison can have a season where he had 16, in significantly less minutes as well, then this simple bean counting may not be the surest way of measuring quality.
The biggest heads-up for me was this pattern where he regularly looked like his best self against much inferior opposition: Elfsborg, Hoffenheim, Leicester, Ipswich etc. It wasn't even a matter of inconsistency that also comes with aging.
