Tottenham manager Enze Postecoglou had no choice but to acknowledge the value of Son Heung-min 'Captain'.
Son Heung-min left the ground due to two injuries in the 2024-2025 season. However, the time was not long. At present, 'injury bomb' has fallen. In the main defense line, only Pedro Porro is in good shape.
Guglielmo Vicario, Christian Romero, Mickey van der Penn, Radu Dragusin and Destiny Udoji were out of power due to injuries. Van der Penn recently returned, but it's a question mark again. James Maddison in the midfield and Dominic Solanke, Brennan Johnson, Wilson O'Dowbert and Timo Werner in the offense are injured.
In the worst case, Son Heung-min is carrying it with a corpse. In the English Premier League (EPL), he fell to 14th place, so there is no high hope. However, he stood aside from the relegation crisis. The Europa League (UEL), FA Cup, and Carabao Cup (League Cup) are completely different.
In the UEL League phase, he ranked fourth and went straight to the round of 16, and the FA Cup will play Aston Villa in the round of 32 on the 10th (Korea time). In the case of the Carabao Cup, it is one step away from advancing to the final.

Tottenham will play the second leg of the English Carabao Cup (League Cup) semifinals at 5 a.m. on the 7th at Anfield in Liverpool. Son Heung-min and Mohamed Salah have a real match left. Tottenham, which won 1-0 in the first round, dominated the advantage of advancing to the finals.
Son Heung-min, who joined Tottenham in August 2015, is in his 10th season. He is also crying at 'Official'. Tottenham has not won in 17 years since the 2007-2008 season. The last competition to lift the trophy was the League Cup.
If they reach the final, the opponent has been decided. 'North London Rivals' avoided Arsenal. Newcastle United won 2-0 in the second leg of the semifinals against Arsenal on the 6th. Newcastle, which won 2-0 in the first leg away on the 8th of last month, won 4-0 in total in the first and second legs and came first to the finals.
Coach Postecoglou delivered Son Heung-min's desire to win at a press conference against Liverpool. He said, `Son Heung-min has been outstanding in our team. Especially this season, his burden has been really extreme. The weight Son Heung-min had to bear physically and mentally must have been too much for anyone."
He continued "As the current season approaches its end, Son Heung-min clearly has a clear goal. It's not just a personal goal, it's hoping for the success of the whole team. The same goes for Ben Davies. The two players are well aware of what the club's success means to them."

Postecoglou also said, `Considering everything Son has done for the club, it is only natural for him to lift the trophy.' `He has a huge presence at the club. If the trophy is added, it will shine even more."
And "Son Heung-min puts the team's success first. It will continue to play a key role in the team. Son Heung-min or Davis are not worried about failing. remain more optimistic and positive than anyone elseexpected "
Son Heung-min also hit Bae Soo-jin. In the 24th round of the EPL against Brentford on the 3rd, he was involved in both goals and led the team to a 2-0 victory. After escaping from four consecutive EPL losses, Tottenham also escaped seven consecutive games (one draw and six losses).
Son Heung-min said, `I keep saying this, but every game is very precious to me and it's the final. I'm playing with that kind of mind. Liverpool away game is even more special. It is only one step away from the League Cup final. I hope you prepare well and get good results to make a situation where you can go to Wembley," he said.
