TITLE: “I can play in the center, but Hishali Song did a good job.”

Tottenham’s Son Heung-min showed consideration for his teammate Richellison.

Tottenham won 2-0 in the second round of the 2023-24 Premier League against Manchester United (hereinafter referred to as Manchester United) at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on the 20th (Korea Standard Time). Son Heung-min led the team to victory by playing full-time as a captain against Manchester United.

Tottenham, which was worried about Kane’s lack of offense after moving to Bayern Munich, scored four goals in two early games this season, beating Manchester United to win its first victory of the season. Son Heung-min energized the team’s offense with three successful dribbles and four key passes against Manchester United.

Son Heung-min expressed his feelings about the match against Manchester United in an interview with Sky Sports in England on the 21st. Redknapp Sky Sports commentator asked Son Heung-min for his preferred position between the center and the side, and Son Heung-min said, “Honestly, I think he can play in any position. I can play left, right, and center,” he replied. 

Richellison played as a front-line striker against Manchester United but fell short of expectations. Richardson, who was substituted in the 25th minute of the second half and played for 70 minutes, failed to record a single shot. The dribble breakthrough attempt was only successful once out of three times, and 14 passes were also attempted, with only nine successful attempts, recording a low pass success rate of 64%. Richellison showed a lethargic performance, never winning a single five over-the-air tournament.

Tottenham recruited Richalisson from Everton last season for a transfer fee of £60 million (about KRW 99.9 billion), but Richalison only scored one goal in the Premier League after moving to Tottenham. Amid mounting criticism of Richeli Song, Tottenham captain Son Heung-min praised Richeli Song’s performance against Manchester United and showed his protection for his teammates.

He is a player who can bring a lot for Tottenham. We work hard. We He expressed a positive attitude toward his teammates, commenting that he is a player with something special that is missing.”

Son Heung-min also expressed satisfaction with the style of Postecoglu. Son Heung-min said, “As a striker, it’s good to play and press in the opponent’s camp. If you win the ball, you will be closer to the opponent’s goal than if you stay in our camp. I prefer to play in the opponent’s camp. I am very happy about it,” he said, expressing his satisfaction. “All managers are different and I always respect them. I will fulfill any role given to me. Pressing from the front shortens the distance from the goal,” he said. Pressing from the front also helps create scoring opportunities. did.
