ponsaelius Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Whenever I see Son he doesn't seem to get the plaudits that you'd expect. Really good player. He did cost around 30 million euros tbf. Might not seem a lot in modern football but it is when buying from the Bundesliga. He's absolutely shite for the national team considering how well he plays for Spurs. My Korean friends hate him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Every time I see Spurs play the pundits give him praise about how good he's been. Not sure how he's not getting the plaudits? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 He's never really singled out for it in analysis. Maybe I've just missed it, but it's usually Kane or Alli when I watch them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Well Kane and Alli (and Eriksen) have been more major players tbf. Son is more of a supporting role, with his buzzing around, good running and chipping in with goals. He's not quite as good if he's the player required to be running a game, hence why he's always pants for Korea. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Hmm, I disagree like, he's too regular a goal scorer to have not been singled out at least once, but as I say, maybe I've just missed it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 He generally gets praised by commentators. You think he's been as important to Tottenham's season as Kane, Eriksen or Alli? That's certainly not true. He's not as important as Alderweireld or Dembele either. And I'm a fan of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_NUFC Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Anyone actually following the PL this year? I could barely name realistic transfer targets as my entire footballing universe this season has been the Championship. I look to the more educated ones than I to suggest plausible names we can or should go after. I surely hope Carr's been watching the PL at least.

I don't think any of those things, no, I'm just surprised that I haven't seen any analysis of him all season despite him contributing a lot, particularly with goals.

Sir Toon Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Too many people are well off the mark for me and the papers are the worst culprits. It's well documented that Rafa wanted a project and it's well documented that Ashley used to like his 5 year plans. Im guessing that if any Ashley/Rafa meeting does actually go ahead that the kitty for Summer 2017 is way down the pecking order and whether Ashley meets Rafa's vision at certain points of his yearly plan is at the top. I'll also be surprised if the net spend is above £40m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Andrea Ranocchia available for under £10m apparently. Could probably get him and Maguire for around £25m combined. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_69 Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Watched Ajax last night and i'd take half of their team. Their little playmaker, Younes, was absolutely class. He's listed as a left winger/striker Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they looked pretty raw still. Both were OK but their positioning left a long to be desired at times. The two full back were both superb though although predominately from an attacking POV.

Sanchez made a couple of fantastic tackles to win the ball, hard but totally clean. He looks a really good prospect but it wasn't the game for him to shine as both teams basically threw defence out of the window. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Really hope we can get 2 playmakers (CM and a 10) and a winger If Rafa gets his way i can't see that not being the case tbh. The mere fact he wanted a CM and winger in January means he knows we need both, plus it's obvious to pretty much everyone we don't have a 10 fit for purpose.

He may have played well for Hull but i wouldn't touch the soft cunt with a bargepole. In Italy he always had spells of looking ok before having massive disasterous drops in form.
