"He shows real leadership qualities. I look at him and he’s pretty much a conduit for the whole squad. He mixes in all groups. I don’t think it’s just because he’s popular. What he’s done, he has a certain standing in the game."

The training session lasted around 50 mins in this intense heat. Some great finishes from Sarr, Son was struggling at one point but carried on, Postecoglou stopped the training session on a number of occasions, told the players what he wanted and expected - straight after it had great effect, ending in a good attacking move and a goal.
This was another (the same as before) attacking session.

"When you’re wearing this shirt you should know you’re playing for #Tottenham, playing in the Premier League and it is not enough to give 99 per cent is not enough when the time comes. If we think like this and stick together like a family we can go back up the mountain and with no mess, this is very very important for us as a club."
🎙️| Heung-Min Son on why he chose to play through injury last season:
“I didn’t want to let the people down. I didn’t want to let the players and the staff down because that means a lot to me, and then the fans supporting me, I take the responsibility whether I played good or bad, with pain or not.”
“You could probably see against West Ham it’s still a lot to improve and yet to change in the way we play but we want to have the ball, we want to be attacking more, play in their half, which I think is really important for us as a team and a club. The club has a style of playing football. You could see against West Ham it has been changed from last season. It’s a good thing obviously. You want to play in their half of the pitch, it’s always good, the way to score goals, it’s a shorter distance than if you have 60-70 metres in front of you.”
🎙️| Heung-Min Son on Conte and his infamous press conference rant:
“Urmmm… it is a bit painful [Conte’s comments about the group] but I think people see it in different ways. I don’t think he meant it. He was just in an aggressive way, an emotional way after the game.”
“I’m grateful to him. I can’t say anything bad about him because I take the blame. I should have done much, much better. Two years ago I won the Golden Boot and the expectation was high. The team needed me in a different way in the difficult moments and, for any reasons, pain or whatever, I couldn’t perform so I still feel sorry for him.”
"It is how I used to play, on the touchline, one-vs-one with the full-backs and creating problems for the defensive line.
When I stay wide, we will have more space inside and running into the space also, obviously we didn’t talk about any individual roles but you could see when I was not even playing against West Ham I could literally see what my role will be.
It’s simple. Everyone in his position knows now what to do and how to manage their game."

🎙️ Sonny on the pain he played through last season:
"They were really tough moments. I’m the type who is always hiding the pain. I really didn’t want it to come out officially that I had an operation but I feel good, feel fresh. I feel a new man.”
"Last season, the whole season in pain. It was incredible. I can’t even think about the pain, you know. Now I feel really good, fresh. The physios are still working on it because it has only been a week, 10 days so I’m looking forward to being in good shape. I’m ready to rock 'n' roll."
"Probably people are thinking why didn’t I do the surgery as early as possible but for me it felt like for the club during the season every single moment felt like a difficult moment. I didn’t want to let the people down. I didn’t want to let the players and the staff down because that means a lot to me, and then the fans supporting me, I take the responsibility whether I played good or bad, with pain or not.”
"One thing was clear, I didn’t want people to be let down by just going away in a tough moment because of the pain."

"I was good with him. the season before was fantastic. I won the Golden Boot with him. I can’t say anything bad about him. I’m grateful to have worked with him. Obviously, the end was not ideal, not what we wanted but I’m grateful and I’ve learned lots of things about football and being a human being, and about being more passionate."
Son Heung-Min pidió que se respete la decisión de Harry Kane.
Aunque el futbolista surcoreano espera que su amigo se quede en #Tottenham, respetará y pide al club y los fans, respetar a Harry si se decide a irse. 👏
