There was a moment tonight where Ndombele gave him a pass was just off and he just stopped stood there and Dele ended up running 10m past him to close the ball. Was hoping he got subbed for that alone

Very bad game from him last night, its like he wants to try too much and ignore the simple options. A couple times he should have played it to Kane who was in a better position but didn't.

Probably go and bang 2 in against Burnley, hopefully anyway.

Son just doesn't see a pass especially to Kane. The Bournemouth game he made two assist and I was so excited that maybe Son has finally seen the matrix but he and Moura are both very individual players Messi and Ronaldo come to mind but a trillion light years off

I do believe that Mourinho wants Son and Lucas to be more traditional wingers. Hug the line - stretch them opponents back four - help the wing back in defence. But both of them have basically been deployed as strikers or CF's the last couple of years and it shows. They are always looking to cut in and they drift towards the center of the pitch.

It's really basic stuff but it will take more than a couple of weeks to get right.

That was poor, he could have definitely made that ball

'Give him man of the match'
Tottenham 5-0 Burnley
Tottenham's Son Heung-min, speaking to Sky Sports: "When I got the ball and tried to pass it to Dele but I couldn't find him so I just kept going. I am happy to score this goal.
"It was brilliant today. We created chances and were clinical. We deserved the three points. An unbelievable performance."
Ps. While the interview was happening, Jose Mourinho was shouting in the background for Son to be given man of the match.

Really reminded me of Giggs today when he scored that goal. Amazing. What a player he is. If we can build a solid defence and midfield, our attacking players are as good as anybody.
