“Son Heung-min’s poor form, the best contract for Richalisong” British media criticize

[스포츠조선 한동훈 기자] British media have picked three players in need of action at Tottenham Hotspur. Heung-min Son, who had not scored until round 6, was also included.

British ‘Express’ selected ‘This season’s Conte Tottenham’s best 4 players and disappointing 3 players’ on the 11th (Korean time).

Conte’s Fantastic Four consists of star Harry Kane, new striker Richalisson, central midfielder Pierre Emil Hoybjerg and centre-back Christian Romero.

On the other hand, the disappointing three are Heung-Min Son, central midfielder Yves Bisuma and wing-back Emerson Royal.

In particular, Son Heung-min’s goal is late this season to the extent that he is the top scorer last season. Up to 6 rounds, one attack point is one assist.

Richalisson, who Tottenham signed a huge sum of £50 million (regarding 80 billion won), has an impressive performance and is even more comparable.

‘Richalisson was Tottenham’s best summer contract,’ Express said. He has already become a fan favorite at the club. His passionate play across the front line caught the eye of his fans. £50m will feel very cheap if he continues to play with Kane,’ he praised.

He pointed out that Son Heung-min needs more luck.

Express said, ‘Heung-min Son tore the Premier League last season. But now his form is bad. Thanks to this, Richalisson also benefited. Heung-Min Son has yet to score a goal until the sixth round. He really needs luck to start the season.”

Heung-Min Son is still showing signs of improving his performance. In the recent game, bad luck overlapped, such as a shot hitting the post or the goal being minimized by a teammate offside.

Kane’s performance continues. He has already scored 5 goals. “He’s been one of the most impressive stars in the Premier League so far this season,” Express said. He is also likely to compete once morest Manchester City’s Elling Haaland for the Golden Boot.’

On the other hand, Spurs performed well at the beginning of the season regardless of Son Heung-min’s sluggishness. A draw was achieved in a difficult Chelsea away. 3rd place with 4 wins and 2 draws. The only team other than Tottenham Hotspur that has not lost until the sixth round is Manchester City.
