"A week's rest should restore the captain's vitality and energy ahead of the big match."
Will Tottenham Hotspur's 'Captain' Son Heung-min be able to erase the growing arrow of criticism with his skills. The time for solid proof is just around the corner.
The stage of the showdown is Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England, which is its home stadium at 1:30 a.m. on the 17th (Korea time). It is a home game in the 25th round of the English Premier League (EPL) against Manchester United in the 2024-2025 season. Through this match, Son can neutralize all the criticism that has been pouring on him recently at once. On the contrary, it could further amplify the criticism of the malicious British local media.
It is an important big match for both Son Heung-min and Tottenham. Tottenham ranks 15th in the league (27 points, 8 wins, 3 draws and 13 losses) and is at risk of relegation. Manchester United ranks 14th in the league (29 points, 8 wins, 5 draws, 11 losses). If Tottenham wins at home, it will push out Manchester United and become 14th in the league. The rankings are still terrible, but there is a symbolic meaning of bringing down and rising United. If Son Heung-min plays a central role by scoring a goal, he can neutralize the criticism pouring on him. It's a crisis and a chance.
Son Heung-min has been quite sluggish this season due to the aftermath of his injury and poor physical strength. He has scored six points and seven assists in 21 league games. However, if Tottenham expands its scope to all games this season, including the EPL, it is still performing like a star of the team. He scored multiple goals in the 2024-2025 UEFA Europa League (UEL) League phase 7 against Hoffenheim at Preezero Arene in Jinsheim, Germany, on the 24th of last month, setting a double-digit score record in official games for nine consecutive seasons from the 2016-2017 season. It is the only record among active EPL players.
However, all the criticism is focused on Son Heung-min as Tottenham has been mired in a slump due to a number of injuries to players this season. His poor performance in the league also played a part. Criticism is mounting that "it is not a claim." The British team talk on the 15th "Tottenham native Jamie O'Hara is no longer a suitable captain for Son Heung-min. He criticized that he is not a player who can step up when he has to bring his team together in a difficult time," he reported.
Football 365 is also 'Son Heung-min is past his prime. Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Barcelona or Paris Saint-Germain, who want to hunt trophies, might take him, but they need a pay cut, he said.
Nevertheless, Son Heung-min is still a key player for Tottenham. He also plans to take the lead in winning the match against Manchester United.
Football London predicted Son Heung-min will take over the left wing, making an expected best 11 ahead of the match against Manchester United. The media reported that coach Enze Postecoglou has an option for the return of the injured, saying, "'Tottenham had a rare week without a game during the week, and finally the injured returned to training. Postecoglou told Football London that James Maddison could potentially start as well"Midfield options have diversified"
Football London expected Guglielmo Vicario (goalkeeper) to return for the first time in a long time as a starting keeper against Manchester United. It then formed a four-back line of Pedro Porro-Kevin Danso-Ben Davies-Jed Spence.
Midfielders are expected to include Rodrigo Bentancourt, Yves Bissouma and Lucas Beribal. The attacking three-top players are Dejan Kulusevski, Matisse Tel and Son Heung-min. It's a 4-3-3 formation.
The media outlet said 'Tell started as a wing against Aston Villa and scored a goal in the middle. Postecoglou also mentioned the possibility of Son being placed at the center, saying, "We have to decide whether to swap Tel's position with Son Heung-min." Regarding Son Heung-min, he predicted that Son Heung-min should have restored Son's vitality and energy.
