Vaguely remember a son interview from last year where he basically said conte had told him not to shoot and to just get to the byline and cross. He was frustrated because shooting is probably the best part of his game - especially from the corner of the box. Just goes to show that allowing good attacking players a bit of freedom of expression as part of a proper tactical plan leads to good attacking football and goals. Who knew???
 
Kind of insane how good he is, just passed Drogba and Ronaldo for PL goal totals.

If he has pretty standard 15 goal season, he’ll pass Giggs, Scholes, Crouch, Wright, Heskey, Gerrard.

Yep. I don't think the Sonny of last season would have pulled off that cheeky dink. Conte's way stripped him of creativity and joy. It would have just gone straight at the goalie.
 
Son won't work as an option through the middle every week, but he's probably the best option we have in 70% of the games we'll play. Was a joy to watch the other day, love when he does well.
 
One of the best finishers of his generation. We're so lucky he stayed with us this whole time. I think the reason he's stayed with us is because we gave him a chance to play in the Premier league at a high level so he's grateful to the club and has stayed out of loyalty.

He could've easily gone to any other club if he wanted.

Don’t forget that we were also the only club wiling to deal with the issue of his military service. We often allowed him to leave during the season to play in international tournaments and put a lot of trust in him despite a scenario where he could have had to take a two year sabbatical from football.

The club showed him great loyalty and he is repaying us.

It is nice to see some loyalty left in football, especially on both ends. People talk about players like Gerrard,Totti and Maldini but it is easy to stay loyal when you've won a big trophy at your boyhood club. Son hasn't won at spurs and it isn't even his boyhood club either, he just genuinely wants to repay us for giving him a platform to succeed. He could've gone anywhere else and no one would begrudge him for it.
