Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
He's underrated in the sense he receives praise from the non-Spurs bubble only when he's bang in form and it's obvious to credit him. When has Son ever been mentioned among the best in the league, or indeed Europe?
Absolute gentleman humble kind honest and decent
The thing is you could say that to majority of the current Spurs players and its becoming.
Asian Cup mate, it's like the EUROs, every 4 years. Asian Games is like a mini-Olympics, also every 4 years but that was last summer.
Agreed, very well said!
The whole section looked just like that still pic as soon as Son caught the pass from Dele - like they knew exactly what was coming
AFC Asian Cup call-up for Sonny | Tottenham Hotspur
Son being away for the 2nd half of January is not ideal with the number of matches Spurs are playing as it leaves us with 3 AM's (Dele, Eriksen, Moura and Lamela) so they will all be playing a lot - and we could be very vulnerable if there are any injuries.
I can't see us buying an AM in January - there are other areas of the squad which are more urgent to invest in - so I wonder if Poch will look at using any of our youngsters during the 2 (or more likely 3 weeks away with travel, assuming South Korea play in the final on 1 February) week period.
I'd guess the most likely candidates would be speedy winger Anthony Georgious who has already made his first team debut of course or Dele lookalike (in playing style) goal and assist machine Jack Roles. Both could be useful at least coming off the bench to give our main AM's a bit of a rest, whilst giving useful experience to the youngsters. Georgiou is now 21 and a Cyprus international whilst Roles at 19 is a year older than the more physically developed Oliver Skipp.

wrote a good piece on Georgiou which might be a useful reminder to refresh memories as he was out injured for quite a time and only recently back.
Why I’m hoping that Anthony Georgiou can follow Danny Rose’s path into the first team:

Literally smiled like an idiot for the whole 3:26 of that video.
Thanks for posting. Loved it.
I was referring to the upcoming international tournament in January
Yes I know you were
Put him up there with the world class wing forwards
Like I always said, THE ASIAN MAESTRO!!!

With Vertonghen hopefully back to fitness we could revert to 3-4-3 so effectively we only have to play 3 of Eriksen, Kane, Lamela, Lucas and Alli utilising Trippier and Rose as wing backs
