On the 18th (Korea time), the EPL Secretariat unveiled the 16th round of the EPL in the 2024-2025 season selected by legend Alan Shearer. Son Heung-min was named the best left wing.
Tottenham won 5-0 in an away match against Southampton on the 16th with Son Heung-min's one-man show, which involved in four goals, including one goal and two assists. Son Heung-min has opened up a new history for Tottenham. Beyond Darren Anderton (67 assists), he has recorded a total of 67 and 68 assists, ranking No. 1 in Tottenham's history. Tottenham congratulated Son Heung-min, who became the new king of assistance, by revealing the process of making a special uniform commemorating '68' on social media.
My steps were light from the start. Tottenham's Madison, who received a through pass from Jed Spence, scored the first goal 36 seconds into the game. Son Heung-min scored his second goal in the 12th minute of the first half.
Two minutes later, Son Heung-min served as the starting point and led Dejan Kulusevski's third goal. Son Heung-min assisted Sarr in the 25th minute of the first half and Madison's additional goal in the 45th minute of the first half. After playing only the first half, Son Heung-min was replaced at half-time with his team leading 5-0. There was no need to overdo it.

Shearer's 'Team of this state' is a 3-4-3 formation. Along with Son Heung-min, Allensander Isaac and Jacob Murphy (Newcastle) were in the three-top. Midfield was led by Madison, with Ahmad Diallo (Manchester United), Ismaila Sarr (Crystal Palace) and Moises Caicedo (Chelsea). Three-backs included Nikola Milenkovic (Nottingham), Maxens Lacroix (Crystal Palace) and Lewis Hall (Newcastle), while the best goalkeeper was Jordan Pickford (Everton).
Tottenham floundered in a winless swamp (three draws and two losses) in five consecutive games before their match against Southampton. It had one draw and two losses in the EPL and two draws in the Europa League (UEL). After escaping from a winless game, Totum jumped to 10th place with 23 points (7 wins, 2 draws and 7 losses).
In the case of 'BBC', Tottenham produced the most three 'Best 11', but Son Heung-min and Madison were not present. Sarr, Spence and Archie Gray were named the best 11. In the 4-2-3-1 formation, Sar is the best central midfielder, Spence is listed at right fullback, and Gray is listed at centre-back.

The reason for choosing Spence is because it's a question for coach Enze Postecoglou, but I don't understand why he's not playing. I didn't think it would work out last year, but I came back in the summer and worked hard, and showed patience. 'Again, he was great and solid, and he looked like he'd been playing all season'
Eighteen-year-old Gray also 'I think he did a really good job in the way he controlled himself. It was impressive as he was put in the center back against Southampton. He also finished brilliantly against Rangers during the week.
Allensander Isaac was named in the 'Team of the week" one-top, while Ahmad Diallo, Ismaila Sarr and Jacob Murphy were named in the second term. Sarr and Manuel Agarte (Manchester United) were paired in the midfield. Spence, Gray, Nikola Milenkovic and Mark Cucurella (Chelsea) lined the four backs, with Jordan Pickford as the best goalkeeper.

And "It's because the team will be revived only when these players do better in the future. Obviously, they are young players and it can be a burden, but that's why they become Premier League players. I think it's right to praise the performances of the players who did better than my personal record," he said.
