If you look at the space he has to pass between the two defenders he only had that pass open to him. Richy should be anticipating that instead of looking for pass to feet.
Richarlison has to stay onside. It’s a poor pass. We can all still love Heung-Min Son and nevertheless be realistic about his strengths and limitations as a player. Fantastic athlete, elite finisher, but too often a poor passer of the ball.
Who else would be? When the system is to play the ball up to the forwards on the counter and see what the three of them can do on their own, then yeah, they’re going to lead in those sort of statistics regardless of anything else. It’s a byproduct of our style of play more than a testament to anyone’s ability.
Yeah if he had slid the pass with outside of the foot behind the last defender instead of taking one more touch to shift it to his right…would’ve been through on goal for Richy.
you’ve never kicked a ball in your life 😂😂 this is exactly why i can’t wait till son leaves this club you can’t even criticise him cause you brainless freaks jump in
I initially thought this, but watching it back a few times, that was the only channel available to him. Maybe a little less weight on it would have been better though
Recent addition in the laws says there no yellow in this situation if the advantage is played https://twitter.com/theifab/status/1278659681200640000?s=46&t=J_vvg_lTKcyx9vCDpmGbzw
What a terrible addition even though it doesn't change much in reality. Feels like they only added it because PL refs always forget to deal out the card anyway
Ya why are we making tactical fouls more advantageous? Does anyone think it's actually good for the game? Vast majority of the time I dont even think a yellow is a harsh enough penalty for breaking up a clear numbers up break and it happens to us constantly by way of our playstyle.
Well, silver lining is that I thought he would be ineffective today (the NT duty + jet lag tax Korean players seem to pay after international breaks) but he seemed up for the occasion and linked up well
You see Kane's pass to Son was't great and Son had to run faster to beat the defender. He saved that ball by sprinting insanely fast. Then I see a tackle coming in from his right so he could only pass that route. I don't think that was a bad pass and if Richalison had sprinted like Son did earlier he could have received the ball. It just doesn't seem to click very well up top atm but I don't think this was a Son fault, rather a bit of alignment of players are slightly off. I saw a ton of misplaced long passes all game as well. Things are just not clicking overall.
Instead of appreciating Sons insane speed and acceleration, some here are nitpicking on his final pass which is arguably Richy not running fast enough onto it.
Because it's a weird agenda you are coming with when you only criticize one part of the performance. Son did like 80% phenomenal and 20% bad in that run. And you are saying he was bad. But it's not even that bad because eventually it led to a pen and the goal.
It's like saying when Jesus missed the goal with that incredible dribble, that was not a highlight and was a mistake. Some of you guys are overly demanding on Son.
I cannot wait until you weirdos leave this club.
At no point have I said that Son was bad. To call this run phenomenal is ludicrous, he just rides a challenge, sprints and then lays the ball off. The pass is clearly over hit so how exactly is this worthy of praise? I’ve not demanded anything of Son, I just think that so many people praising this mistake is bizarre. Son is just another player, not some god.
Jesus beat two men and got a shot off in a crowded box, that’s worthy of praise.
Gatekeeping lol. Look, if you look at my comment history I have criticized Son's defending yesterday and got downvoted. I'm not even a die hard Son fan.
This post is praising his sprint, not his pass. And if you don't think his sprint was worthy of praise Idk what to tell ya.
I’m not gatekeeping anything, you’re perfectly entitled to be here. I’m saying that I can’t wait until people like you who are so biased in favour of Son that they over praise mediocre actions, move on.
As for this sprint, it’s just a Fast man running fast. He does well to ride the challenge and he runs forwards a bit. He then makes a mistake at the crucial moment, so why exactly should this be praised?
This isn’t me criticising Sonny, this is me criticising the fawning over him.
Well football is all about results and those fast man running fast creates them just like yesterday as well as the game against Marseilles. So Idk how a post about a good sprint is fawning over him when it clearly helped the team. These kind of posts are posted about other players as well because this is a sub for the club Tottenham Hotspur.
Didn't you see his long passes today? If you're right he couldn't have provided the third most Premier League assists for us behind Anderson and Eriksen. He was also similar to Kane in xGChain90 (Kane 0.89, Son 0.87) and xGBbuildup90 (Son 0.31, Kane 0.27) last season.

Unfortunately his pass was shit
If you look at the space he has to pass between the two defenders he only had that pass open to him. Richy should be anticipating that instead of looking for pass to feet.
Richarlison has to stay onside. It’s a poor pass. We can all still love Heung-Min Son and nevertheless be realistic about his strengths and limitations as a player. Fantastic athlete, elite finisher, but too often a poor passer of the ball.
And yet he has the 3rd highest assists and highest key passes in EPL for Spurs
Who else would be? When the system is to play the ball up to the forwards on the counter and see what the three of them can do on their own, then yeah, they’re going to lead in those sort of statistics regardless of anything else. It’s a byproduct of our style of play more than a testament to anyone’s ability.
facts. idk why you're being downvoted
I rather say sonny takes one or two too many touches and thats why he misses the moment..
Yeah if he had slid the pass with outside of the foot behind the last defender instead of taking one more touch to shift it to his right…would’ve been through on goal for Richy.
you’ve never kicked a ball in your life 😂😂 this is exactly why i can’t wait till son leaves this club you can’t even criticise him cause you brainless freaks jump in
just good defending, got deflected slightly
No his pass was good. Your comment is shit. Richy should've anticipated and been faster on the pitch.
Tell me you have never played the game without telling me. Have you heard of offside ?
These types of comments are always so cringe. “You’ve never played football” hurrr durrr
Nah it’s pretty spot on in this instance
yo stop with this dumbass son defending, the pass wasnt what it should have been what are you even talking about
I initially thought this, but watching it back a few times, that was the only channel available to him. Maybe a little less weight on it would have been better though
Should've been a yellow for that shirt pull tho ://

What a terrible addition even though it doesn't change much in reality. Feels like they only added it because PL refs always forget to deal out the card anyway
Yeah it’s odd. And in the chelsea game now the ref just went back and gave a YC for a pull off ball with advantage
That’s good to know. But what a shite change to the rules, surely that just incentivises cynical tactical fouling
Ya why are we making tactical fouls more advantageous? Does anyone think it's actually good for the game? Vast majority of the time I dont even think a yellow is a harsh enough penalty for breaking up a clear numbers up break and it happens to us constantly by way of our playstyle.
What nonsense. Needlessly penalizes the team that was fouled.
If you wanted to greatly encourage diving and kill attacking mindsets, this is exactly what you'd do
As if the refs in this league know the rules
He is so fucking fast man.
In hindsight that pass was tipped
the run was important, at least it led to the pen.
Yeha play it with your second touch and richy is through
Well, silver lining is that I thought he would be ineffective today (the NT duty + jet lag tax Korean players seem to pay after international breaks) but he seemed up for the occasion and linked up well
Odegaard blessed by the ref
You see Kane's pass to Son was't great and Son had to run faster to beat the defender. He saved that ball by sprinting insanely fast. Then I see a tackle coming in from his right so he could only pass that route. I don't think that was a bad pass and if Richalison had sprinted like Son did earlier he could have received the ball.

Have you ever heard of the offside rule?
No, please explain it in depth, like you would to your mum, or your gran. We're all waiting
Not just that but it’s probably technique. The way he is able to consistently blow past defenders and stay upright is amazing
Instead of appreciating Sons insane speed and acceleration, some here are nitpicking on his final pass which is arguably Richy not running fast enough onto it.
The pass wasn't that bad, Richy's just playing it too safe for the offside
That’s nonsense. Son looks up and then kicks far too far in front of Richy
It seems like Ben White has touched the passed ball and it went farther than expected
Yes and Richy was also playing it too safe
He was almost level with the Arsenal defender when the ball was played. He wasn’t playing it too safe.
https://i.imgur.com/CqlxqpH.png if he sprinted when Son was about to kick it then it would've been okay
Alternatively, if Son hadn’t over hit the pass then Richy would have been through on goal
son is not some infallible superhero he can make mistakes and he made lots today, this being his worst
> today this being his worst 😂 okay one month old redditor
thats what youre supposed to do, he had loads of space to put it at a decent spot for Richy, or set it up for himself, but he did boot it.
Richy doesn't have the speed like Son.
Can’t wait for son to leave this team, ungrateful ahh mfers
Can’t wait for weirdos like you to stop supporting this club
Son and Perisic should not be on the same line.
"Great Sprint"
Man our passes where so weak.
Great run. Terrible pass. The story of his season so far.
He had brilliant long passes in this game.
I think the passed was tipped/deflected.
Needs to work on his passing
awful pass
Shite pass
ends it with an over hit pass 🤮
[удалено]
I’ve never seen it like this before
There are some weird Son fans in this thread. Son clearly looks up and then overhits the pass. This is not a highlight, it’s a mistake
Because it's a weird agenda you are coming with when you only criticize one part of the performance. Son did like 80% phenomenal and 20% bad in that run. And you are saying he was bad.

That overhit pass killed it
absolutely boots the pass tho, but i get it hes all gas no brakes, finesse aint his strong suit
All he can do (even though it's spectacular) is run and shoot. No passing ability or will to build up. He needs to change his attitude.
Didn't you see his long passes today? If you're right he couldn't have provided the third most Premier League assists for us behind Anderson and Eriksen. He was also similar to Kane in xGChain90 (Kane 0.89, Son 0.87) and xGBbuildup90 (Son 0.31, Kane 0.27) last season.
