It is an interesting read for sure, but I don't think Son is that often benched for Alli or Kane. Son has been an important player to us for a few years now. I think he scored like 22 goals for us last season!

That's what I thought - it was a good read overall, and it shows the journo did some homework for this article, but it ends on a very strange note. And what's up with all the unnecessary comparisons between him v. Kane/Dele as if he will be sent back to our bench after they come back from injury?

Poch figures out how to get our best players playing in a system that gives them a chance to excel. Before Dele/Kane were hurt, Dele was playing at the top of a 4 man midfield diamond behind Kane and Son. I expect the same of something similar once they are all fit.

I imagine its just seeing Son's big, posh digs and the life he leads... most of us would be envious of that.

I am not sure it's mentioned in the video but it's not his place, they rented the place to film the commercial - just saying in case. It's for a good cause anyway, so not regretting watching it.

It's a video that does not affect your life in any way. In fact, the more views, the more goes to charity. It's only a bit of fun for a good cause. Don't be such a grinch.

Reckon he's favorite at this point for Spurs player of the year as well, even if he's missed a lot of our season and wasn't performing until November when the international break came.

He needs a rest now. He's been absolutely superb this season but he's starting every game and given the amount of international travel he's also had to do he must be knackered. Two poor performances in a row where the spark seems to have gone.

Annoyingly, the next two games at Dortmund and Liverpool so we ideally want our best players on the pitch though. But if he burns out then we could be kicking ourselves.

Huge gap after southampton game until the Liv game, if he goes to internationals with Korea I'll be so fucking irritated.

Tbf he’s looked rubbish after having that 10 day break
