[OSEN=이인환 기자] “Son Heung-min will take care of his physical condition well.”
Tottenham will travel to Luton Town FC in the 8th round of the 2023-2024 English Premier League (PL) to be held at Kenilworth Road in Luton, England, on the 7th (Korean time).
Prior to this game, Tottenham is on an undefeated streak of 5 wins, 2 draws, and 7 games, and has 17 points, ranking 2nd in the league after Manchester City (18 points). The only undefeated team in the league is North London rival Arsenal, who shared a friendly 2-2 draw in the 6th round.
Tottenham showed a completely different appearance last season. He is showing off his improved firepower by scoring 17 goals in 7 league games. A completely different look from Antonio Conte’s Tottenham last season, which was evaluated as defensive and boring.
The secret to showing even more firepower in the absence of Harry Kane was Son Heung-min’s conversion to a frontline striker. He is in charge of Tottenham’s front line, scoring two goals against Arsenal and one goal against Liverpool, including a hat trick against Burnley. With Richarlison coming out to the left wing, the effect of SON’s top is being maximized.
The problem is Son Heung-min’s physical condition. Previously, British media reported that Son Heung-min has been playing with a groin injury throughout September. In this situation, Son Heung-min is leading Tottenham by scoring 6 goals in September alone, so coach Angie Postekoglou is doing his best to save him.
Coach Postekoglou used Son Heung-min, who was selected as a starter in both the Arsenal and Liverpool games, to score a goal, but he made an effort to prevent injuries by substituting him in the middle of the game. Even under such thorough management, Son Heung-min is known to be unable to train with his team full-time.
When asked about Son Heung-min’s selection to the national team at a press conference held ahead of the Luton Town match, coach Postekoglou said, “He is as valuable to the national team (Korea) as he is to us (Tottenham). I believe coach Jurgen Klinsmann will take good care of Son Heung-min. “He opened his mouth.
Coach Postekoglou said, “I’m not giving instructions to Coach Klinsmann. I also used to be the coach of the national team (Australia national team), so I know the hardships. As the national team coach at the time, I also thoroughly managed the players who would return to the club. Coach Klinsmann did a good job. “I believe he will do it,” he expressed his trust.
He added, “There is no need for extreme measures. Son Heung-min himself is the person who knows the state of his body best. He has not missed a single game this season and is still contributing greatly to the team. It is so surprising.” . /[email protected]
