One goal, two assists Son Heung-min + two goals It's okay without Madison. BBC Lee Ju's exclusion from the team is shocking...Tottenham produced the largest number of 3 players
There was no Tottenham 'Captain'Son Heung-min who scored one goal and two assists, and James Madison who scored multiple goals (two goals). However, Tottenham produced the most 'Best 11'.
England's 'BBC' unveiled the 16th round of the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2024-2025 season selected by football expert Troy Deeney on the 17th (Korea time). The keyword was Tottenham.
Tottenham won 5-0 in an away match against Southampton on the 16th. Before the game, he was struggling in a swamp of winless wins (three draws and two losses) in five consecutive games. 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).
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, Dejan Kulusevski scored his 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.
At Tottenham, Sarr, Spence and Archie Gray were selected as 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.
Deeney said of Sarr: "'He's been in good form for a few weeks and he's scored in this game, he's shown quality class and composure. Even if the opponent is Southampton, I will put him in this time around.'"
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.
The "Team of the week" one-top featured Alensander Isaac (Newcastle) and Ahmad Diallo (Manchester United), Ismaila Sarr (Crystal Palace) and Jacob Murphy (Newcastle) in the second line. Sarr and Manuel Agarte (Manchester United) were paired in the midfield.
Spence and Gray, Nikola Milenkovic (Nottingham) and Mark Cucurella (Chelsea) lined the four backs, and the best goalkeeper was Jordan Pickford (Everton).
Son Heung-min gave credit to young players even with Tottenham's most help. He said "I'm so proud and so proud. Such records were possible because of the help of all the players. But as things stand now, I think it's more important than my personal records that these players, such as Veribal or Spence and Gray, who started today's game for the first time, get more attention," he stressed.
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.
