Really is diabolical that we didn't win anything when these two were in their prime for us as a strike partnership.

'Our club, our fans'. I absolutely love Son

'Our club, our fans'. I absolutely love Son

And some say he isn't captain material

 

[Kendrick]

There's no player in our current squad who bleeds lilywhite more than this man. He's world class, the captain of his national team, adored and respected by many. When we signed Nuno as our manager, Harry was possibly on his way out, he signed up for another stint. Make it happen Ange!

He loves the club more than Kane ever did, can tell by the way he talks compared to the way Harry does.

There's no need for this kind of crap.

There's no need for this kind of crap.

I'm not insulting Kane or criticising him, just saying when you listen to them talk, Son seems to have much more love and affiliation for the club. Was the case before the move as well

Some people are more expressive and extroverted than others. It doesn't mean they love the club any more or less.

 

[Shanks]

No pressure Sonny, go get em lad!

 

[mattstev2000]

Nothing would make me happier than Sonny having a blistering season. Really hope he does.

Son Heung-min, he's one of our own.

Stand on your opinion man and don't worry about others bitching or disagreeing with it.

[Now it's Spursonal]

Brilliant, very happy with that trio

 

[Guntz]

Deserved

 

[Danfunkel]

Perfect all round. Madders is our next leader, and Romero is a shithouse. Exactly what you need.

 

[Kendrick]

Well-deserved!

 

[Hazelton]

Well deserved. Hope it lights a fire under him this season, he'll want to improve on last year and he should also want to show that he wasn't just Kane's sidekick, as was often portrayed by the media.

 

[Bluto Blutarsky]

Worth the double post;

 

[Flobadob]

Makes me happy that this man is our new captain. He’s an incredible person and incredible player, what better person for our less experienced players to look up to? Perfect choice.

Son said: “It’s such a big honour to captain this huge club.

“It was big surprise and a very proud moment. I’ve already said to the players that everyone should feel like a captain, on and off the pitch.

“It’s a new season, a fresh start and I will give everything for this shirt and this armband.”

Head Coach Ange Postecoglou said: “Sonny has great leadership qualities, both on and off the pitch, and is the ideal choice to become our new captain.

"Everyone knows he is a world class player, and he has enormous respect from everyone in the dressing room.

“He transcends groups within the squad. That's not just because he's popular - it's because of what he has achieved in the game, both here and as captain of South Korea.”
