When a reporter asked about Son Heung-min's performance as captain this season, he responded that he was not surprised at all.

The reason was simple. "I have known Son for a long time in the first place. Anyone who watches PL and world soccer will know about his talent," Postecoglou said. "What's surprising is that he is showing his best performance as a captain this season. I didn't expect him to be good at that."

Indeed, Son has an absolute influence over Tottenham this season. He is leading young players such as Pape Sarr, Brennan Johnson, and Hishalisson to blend the mood of his team. He is now transforming into a completely new team with past captaincy teams (Hugo Lloris, Harry Kane, and Eric Dier).토토사이트 순위

However, Son Heung-min is set to leave the Asian Cup in January. For Tottenham, which is aiming for fourth or higher this season, Son's absence is fatal. If Korea advances to the finals, it will have to play most of the games in January without Son Heung-min.

Regarding the absence of such an ace, Postecoglou said, "He is showing responsibility not only on the field but also on the inside. It is a big loss for Son to leave for the Asian Cup in January, but we have no choice. We have to overcome it."
