The British media 『HITC" introduced O'Hara's response to the question of Eberechi Eze (Crystal Palace) as Son's replacement on the 25th.
Eze is a multi-attack resource that participated in the Euro 2024 as an English national team. They can play attacking midfielders and flankers. There were rumors that Tottenham was aiming for Eze in the summer transfer market, but it ended in rumors.
Ohara criticized Son Heung-min by appearing on Talk Sports.
Host Abiy Summers recommended Eze as a replacement. Summers said `I don't mean Son was not a great player, I'm talking about the reality now,' `That's why I said about Eze earlier.'
However, O'Hara responded that Eze was not good enough.
O'Hara says "I don't know much about Eze. I think he's just a wanderer," he replied.
Eze was selected for England Euro 2024 although he was a bench member.
O'Hara seems to want at least a key player for the English national team.

Eze is an all-round offensive midfielder who can play left wing forward and midfielder. In the 2023-2024 Premier League, he scored 11 goals and four assists to reach the star-studded ranks.
According to TransferMarkt, Eze's current market value is valued at about 46 million pounds (KRW 82 billion). The buyout is reported to be worth 68 million pounds (about 120 billion won).
Striker Dominic Solanke, who Tottenham brought while setting a new club transfer record in the summer transfer market, is worth 65 million pounds (about 113 billion won). Solanke was also a member of the Euro 2024 England bench. It is not unreasonable to say that Eze is at least a Solanke-class player.
According to O'Hara's point of view, it is necessary to bring at least 70 million pounds of players, which is quite far from reality.
In the first place, Tottenham Chairman Daniel Levy, famous for his cheapness, is unlikely to spend such a large amount of money on recruiting players, and more crucially, there is no reason for a player of that level to come to Tottenham. Tottenham is not a guaranteed team to play in the Champions League because it is difficult to finish in the top four, let alone win the Premier League.
If you are a key player in England's national team, there is no reason to choose Tottenham to go to a big club. England star Harry Kane (Bayern Munich) from Tottenham was only at Tottenham because he started his professional career at Tottenham, but even he eventually moved to a big club.

O'Hara says "I think he's past his high point now. Fans, of course, seem to think Son Heung-min is done. That's especially true for real fans. He is not what he used to be."
O'Hara says "The quality has disappeared from the final method. Son is 33 years old. Can he break through? He was a great, incredible player. He was a hero for Tottenham. But not now."
Does O'Hara "Does he show a sharp, flashy appearance? I have a different opinion. He made a clean break through one-on-one. The former Son Heung-min was a guaranteed goal player."
The host asked O'Hara if that meant Son should be excluded from the starting lineup.
Ohara said, `We cannot exclude Son because there is no better player than Son Heung-min. Not in Brennan Johnson's case, but on the left. We need to find a new left winger" he raised his voice.
Ohara also admitted that there is virtually no better alternative than Son Heung-min at this point.
