If he plays it is probably from off the bench
I'll settle for that. I honestly didn't think we'd see him until after the international break.

Possibly I was born in Australia and have a Korean background?you seem to know an awful lot about korea for an "australian". you sure you don't work for the korean ministry of tourism or something?
Hope he comes off the bench for some minutes.I'll settle for that. I honestly didn't think we'd see him until after the international break.
He is really dangerously under-rated. His direct runs don't just help him get goals, but help other players find better positions and get goals too. It was not a coincidence we scored twice when he came on today even though he wasn't directly involved in anything and isn't up to full speed yet. He gave their back line another new dimension to think about and suddenly other players are available in another way.
English commentary
Manquillo's a c*nt, that Liverpool reject.Two things I noticed watching this:
1) Goddamn he deserved to get an assist for Kane. Fucking post.
2) Newcastle are snidey little cunts, aren't they? Needless little digs and shoves all over the shop, for example...
We have pace in the side. What Son brings is the ability to dribble past a player, because he can do this he can pull a defence with a low block out of shape, e.g, Beat a FB then CB has to come across. He can do this on either side of the pitch and through the middle too which makes him such an asset. Even if teams double up on him that means there is space somewhere else to find, over to Mr Dele or Kane to find it and Mr Eriksen to deliver it.He absolutely needs to start against Burnley. When he is off the field our offense looks slow and have no pace at all. Plus I think Eriksen really benefits with Son on the field.
Static football is so underrated these daysPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE.
TAKE OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONS.
People have caught the same disease Gibbs has.

"Poch is in trouble"...And?
Dier/Kane/Davies/Eriksen/Winks/Dembele/Alli? Slow. Dropped points. This is a repeat of Soldado/Townsend/Lennon abuse I got.
You all ignore people talking sense on Twitter etc regarding speed. Why? Just because a little TFC clique danced around my twitter posts about Poch not taking account of the lack of pace? What's funny is that happened after a win. You don't even realize we struggled against 10 men, to edge that win.
I'm sure as usual your "Dembele is poison" laugh's will get ever more hysterical as you mash that "Kane, Wanyama, Dier and Toby are beasts" bin button with every Gibbsy prediction.

Perhaps if all Spurs fans were jumping up and down for pace, and it trickled to the press/to Poch etc his job may be safe?
But what does Poch do? Brings on tiny slow Winks? Like I said. Don't hold your breath on Poch figuring out pace is his curse. Poch is in trouble. You don't know it. You think sentiment is protection. He has no idea how addicted Levy is to washing his hands of nearly men. I give him a year. He does not have a grasp of the fundamentals of the midfield game. Typical defender/bruiser. It's all very noble and lovable. But being a good judge of character and fitness isn't enough.
This is where you predictably melt because Poch is pressarific and untouchable.
