On the 26th (Korea time), Tim Sherwood of the 'Tottenham Senior' mentioned the 12th round of the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2024-2025 season against Manchester City, where Tottenham won 4-0 at Etihad Stadium in Manchester, England on the 24th (Korea time).
Sherwood, who played midfielder for Tottenham from 1999 to 2003 and coached Tottenham from 2013 to 2014, said a total of three players in the current squad have the ability to play for big club Manchester City.
He added: "Dejan Kulusevski is currently the most 'fit' in the Tottenham squad. Son Heung-min can also play for Manchester City. "James Maddison could also be in the Man City squad. There won't be many teams that can go to Manchester City with three players like this."
Kulusevski, Son Heung-min and Madison are the main players in the four-goal victory over Manchester City. Kulusevski assisted Madison's first goal in the 12th minute with a breakthrough ability, vigorous activity, and a sharp cross. Son Heung-min helped Madison score an additional goal with a sensational penetration pass in the 20th minute of the first half. Madison stood tall as the winning hero on his 28th birthday, shooting multiple goals.

Manchester City is recruiting proven star players at a high price after owner Sheikh Mansour took over. Sherwood believes Son Heung-min, Kulusevski and Madison are showing their ability to play even if they go to Manchester City as of this season.
Tottenham jumped four places from 10th to 6th with a 4-0 victory in the 6th minute of the second half and 3rd minute of extra time in the second half with consecutive goals from Pedro Porro and Johnson. Son Heung-min, who played 63 minutes, proved himself to be a "Pep killer" by scoring the second double-digit attack point (five goals and five assists) against Pep Guardiola-led Manchester City with his fourth help of the season.
