Son Heung-min played an outstanding role as the captain of Tottenham this season, scoring 17 goals and 10 assists in the regular league, ranking 8th in the EPL scoring rankings and tying for 3rd in assists.
In terms of team performance alone, he scored the most goals and tied for 1st with Brennan Jones for assists.
However, Football London did not give Son Heung-min the highest rating. It was evaluated that his results were somewhat disappointing compared to his skills.
The media pointed out that “Son Heung-min scored 27 goals (17 goals and 10 assists) in 36 official matches (35 regular league matches + 1 League Cup match), but he did not show his best performance this season.”
Then, they tried to find the cause in the Asian Cup held early this year. Football London said, “Son Heung-min played his role as captain with composure and was a true team leader both on and off the pitch.” “However, Son Heung-min did not have the best season due to the increased game schedule.
He looked tired and overdone a bit right after the Asian Cup.
However, Son Heung-min still contributed a lot at the front line.”
