I’d like to see more of him though!
son needs to be dropped it might raise his game with richy sttarting
fresh air when he came on
Yep , he gives defenders something to think about and works tirelesslyI wasn't sure about his signing or about how he'd fit in but he has to start the next game. His energy and workrate is top notch and the assist he provided today was class.
It’s small club mentality comparing Son and Richarlison, they are very different players offering different attacking dynamics and both will get plenty of minutes this season. The whole Son thing is getting so overblown, it’s a squad game plain and simple.
Changes the game every time he comes on. I’d like to see more of him though!
He wasn't far off getting one today. That curled shot from just outside the penalty area would have been a great goal if it had gone in.Sonny needs a goal but we need to win matches so Conte has to find the balance till then .
A rare breed of a (by all accounts) lovely bloke off the pitch, a supreme hard working talent, and an absolute prick to play against. I'm a huge fan of his now..Love him. Had doubts before we signed him but he’s a total cunt of the finest type. Can’t wait to see him winding up oppo week in, week out.
Scissor Sisters, Filthy/Gorgeous:The shithousing is getting the attention, but that cross in to Kane was absolutely filthy.
You have a point!That's not true. I think Conte sees something that a lot of people are not - Son commands a shitload of attention from defenses, opening up the game for others to exploit:
You take a look at our first goal scored today and Son makes the run that pulls defenders away from Kane, leaving him open
Then take a look at the Southampton game. He provide an assist to Dier but the other 3 goals scored, he was being double teamed and/or making dangerous runs, opening space for others. Here are the moments just before the 3 goals scored against SH:
Sess
Kulu
Own Goal
Then against Chelsea and Wolves, he had a part in a couple of the goals if I'm remembering correctly.
Yeah he's struggling and should be taken out to clear his head but to suggest that he doesn't offer anything is wrong. His presence along makes a big difference. If he continues to struggle then I'd imagine teams will be less concerned with him but for now, he's impacting how teams set up and play just by being on the pitch.
Perfect to use the outside of the foot and it undid the defense and keeper completely and was done with such perfection that Kane didn’t even have to move. Beautiful. For me it was the best cross I’ve seen in ages.The shithousing is getting the attention, but that cross in to Kane was absolutely filthy.
