Tottenham captain Son Heung-min has been selected as the official English Premier League (EPL) team.

On the 26th (Korea time), the EPL secretariat announced the second round of the league on its official website. On the list selected by EPL legend Alan Shearer, Son Heung-min was selected as the left winger along with Elling Holan and João Pedru.

As for the reason for the selection, Shearer played centre-forward in Dominic Solanke's absence and scored twice against Everton," he praised.

Son Heung-min started in the second round of the English Premier League (EPL) against Everton at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on the 25th and scored two goals, contributing to his team's 4-0 victory.

Son Heung-min had to return to the front-line striker position after Dominic Solanke left the game due to injury. Son Heung-min was expected to play as a winger this season due to a flood of claims at the end of last season that Son Heung-min should be returned as a left winger, but Son Heung-min had to take charge of the front line as Solanke left.

Tottenham led in the 14th minute with Yves Bissouma's strong mid-range shot score, and Son Heung-min proved his worth with a goal that widened the gap. In the 26th minute of the first half, Son Heung-min stole the ball from opposing goalkeeper Jordan Pickford with strong pressure and scored a goal based on concentration by pushing it into an empty goal. Later, Christian Romero's third score was scored, and Tottenham led the game with Son Heung-min. In the 32nd minute of the second half, Panderpen advanced to the front of the penalty box and gave the ball to Son Heung-min on the left. Son Heung-min calmly tried to shoot deep into the box and the ball pierced Pickford and shook the net.

In addition to the EPL, he has already been selected for the BBC's team of migration and recognized for his performance. The BBC, a British public broadcaster, unveiled the team of Lee Ju in the second round of the EPL on the 26th. The list is selected and announced by Troy Deeney, a former EPL striker.

Son Heung-min is also listed. Deeney picked David Raya (Arnall) as goalkeeper and Christian Romero, Mickey Panderpen (Tottenham) and Max Kilman (West Ham) as defenders, while Noni Madueke (Chelsea), Kevin De Bruyne (Man City) and Emile Smithlow (Fullam) were named in the midfield along with Son Heung-min. The attackers included Cole Palmer (Chelsea), Elling Holan (Man City) and João Pedru (Brighton).

As for the reason for Son's selection, Deeney said, `He was the best player in the stadium,' starting from the center and moving to the left, scoring two goals. He was constantly threatening, and he seemed to enjoy Kane's challenge as a starting player to replace all of his goals."

In addition, the soccer statistics media Huscoord Dotcom placed Son Heung-min on the front line along with Elling Holan, who scored a hat trick in the EPL's top 11 striker position. He got a 9.05 rating. He scored two of his three shots and praised the state for being named best player with one key pass and one successful dribble.

For Son Heung-min, it was a game that clearly erased criticism from the British media, which doubted his qualification as a starting player. Some British media said of Son Heung-min 'Son Heung-min, 'It is clear that he is a great player for Tottenham, but now he needs to express it in the past tense. He can no longer be regarded as a person who cannot be excluded. He also dismissed the performance as a story of the past.

England's Football 365 said Son should be treated as one of the many options. The media reported that `Son Heung-min is the perfect option for Tottenham's attack, but now it should be seen as just one of many options. Now he doesn't deserve a starting position against every situation, every opponent. There is no question about this either. Already, we have included Son Heung-min on the list of players Tottenham should sell this summer. He also evaluated that Son Heung-min is not unconditionally a starter and should be on the release list.

There was even an assessment that it was arrogant. Craig Burley, a former member of the Scotland national team, also pointed out Son Heung-min. Burley "Tottenham saw Leicester City as too much of a pushover. I felt that way as I watched the pass and shot finish. That's what Tottenham's strikers, including Son Heung-min and Madison, looked like. It felt like they thought they could never get enough of this game. This attitude came from the arrogance of 'Since we are dominating the game, the second goal will soon be scored.' It's really embarrassing. He criticized Son Heung-min, saying, "It's an action that only stronger teams than Tottenham do."

However, Son Heung-min shook off the sluggish performance against Leicester and immediately played a great role in the match against Everton, dominating the team of Lee Ju-yi in various media. One game was enough to turn criticism of himself into a compliment.
