Tottenham striker Son Heung-min already has one of the best records in the English Premier League (EPL) this season.

The British newspaper Hotspur HQ reported on the 28th (Korea time) 'Son Heung-min's new record shows that he is the core of Tottenham.

Son Heung-min is actively playing as Tottenham's captain again this season. It wasn't perfect from the start. During the opening match against Leicester City, Son Heung-min was sluggish as he failed to prevent Tottenham's 1-1 draw, and criticism poured in.

At the time, some British media reported that `Son Heung-min is clearly a great player for Tottenham, but now he needs to express it in the past tense`Son Heung-min is the perfect option for Tottenham's attack, but now it should be considered 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, adding that Son Heung-min should be placed on the release list.

However, Son Heung-min reversed his assessment after one game. Son Heung-min, who started in the second round of the English Premier League (EPL) against Everton in the 2024-2024 season, led his team to a 4-0 victory with a multi-goal performance.

He shook the opponent by moving between the center one-top and the left side. The pressure as a one-top stood out in the first scoring scene. In the 26th minute of the first half, opposing goalkeeper Jordan Pickford seized the ball by pressing it in the process of catching it, and he scored his team's second goal by pushing it into an empty goal. In the next scoring scene, his goal-scoring ability and penetration stood out. In the 32nd minute of the second half, fellow Mickey Panderpen stole the ball and advanced to the front of the penalty box and gave the ball to Son Heung-min on the left side, and Son Heung-min calmly shook the net again, aiming between Pickford's legs on the left side.

Along with this performance, one-top Son Heung-min's remarkable record also drew attention. Hotspur HQ said 'Son Heung-min does not need to be introduced to Tottenham fans. No doubt he is a Tottenham legend. He has already scored 122 goals in 305 EPL matches for Tottenham. He supported Tottenham in Harry Kane's place. He also got off to an impressive start in the 2024-2025 season. He scored two goals against Everton.

Son Heung-min is the most EPL player to win back possession of the ball in the Final Third region so far this season, according to Huscoard. This shows how important he is at Tottenham and how Tottenham want to play in Enze Postecoglou's tactics. What differentiates Son Heung-min from other players with a high energy level is the efficiency of getting the ball back. He typically doesn't look overwhelmed, but he overwhelms his opponents with his excellent soccer intelligence. If Tottenham makes a big success this season, we should thank Son Heung-min for it. He explained that Son's record of forward pressure is an important record that can lead Tottenham to success.

Meanwhile, in addition to this record, Son Heung-min has already proved his true value by being selected for various teams of migration after this second round. The BBC, a British public broadcaster, unveiled Lee Ju's best 11 in the second round of the English Premier League (EPL) on the 26th, and Son Heung-min was also named. 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."

The EPL secretariat also announced the team of Lee Ju-yi in the second round of the league in the 2024-2025 season on its official website, including Son Heung-min. Legendary striker Alan Shearer, the selector, played centre-forward in Dominic Solanke's absence and scored twice against Everton," he said, explaining the reason for the selection. In addition, soccer statistics media Huscoord Dotcom has been listed on various teams of migration, including the EPL's Best 11.

Son Heung-min, who wants to continue his performance against Everton, will try to score for the second consecutive league game against Newcastle on September 1.
