I told you to sell Son Heung-min. Now I have to take out the starting line

Tottenham tied Leicester City 1-1 in the first round of the 2024-25 Premier League at King Power Stadium in Leicester, England, at 4 a.m. on the 20th (Korea time).

"Tottenham had to earn three points here. They are not acting rudely to Leicester but they are thinking that they are a newly promoted team. They had to win unconditionally. It was frustrating to lose the point. The media must be concerned about losing the point in our winning position, but it is all outside noise," Medison said on the British Evening Standard on Sunday.

As Madison said, the local media went overboard. In particular, Son was fiercely criticized. It was in contrast to his praise of Son before the opening. "Give Me Sports" in the U.K. picked Son Heung-min as the best No. 7 player in Tottenham history, saying, "It took time to adjust early on, but he became the best winger in the Premier League. He is the fifth-highest scorer in Tottenham history and received the Puskas Award in 2020 and the top scorer in 2021-22. He ranked second in all-time high ranking, saying, "His decision not to leave Tottenham in 2016 was the best decision in his career. He became the most important player in the history of the Premier League. Son's ability to play both as a winger and striker was indispensable to Tottenham. His loyalty to Tottenham is also great. He showed his love for Tottenham even though he had a chance to leave."

It was rather far-fetched and lacked grounds. England's Football 365 was the most over-the-top critic. "Son Heung-min was the most worried about Tottenham's strikers. Now it seems like they are not drawing an upward curve anymore. Son must have been a great player for Tottenham, but I feel like the time has come to speak in the past tense. Son's versatility is a valid option for Tottenham, but now it makes sense to see him as one of many other options. He claimed that he can no longer be guaranteed an unconditional starting position for every situation and every opponent."

He continued, "In fact, this comment may be a reaction to the disappointing outcome of a game, but not entirely. Already this summer, our media have included Son on the list of players each club should sell. Son scored 17 goals in the Premier League last season, but nearly half of those came from the first 10 games of the season when everything seemed possible. Since the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Qatar Asian Cup, he has scored only five goals in 15 games, with only two goals and two assists in his last 10 games."

Football 365's Son Heung-min's criticism was not over there. "Can Postecoglou be bold enough to keep Son Heung-min, his captain, out of the starting lineup for the next few weeks? Son's recent form alone has plenty of reasons to enforce it, but there are many more when considering his next opponent. Tottenham will face Everton in their first home game of the season, who were in shock after losing 0-3 to Brighton in their season opener. So this could be a great opportunity for Son to regain form. But even more interestingly, isn't it worth considering shaking up his opponent with a new fast and skillful dribbler winger in this match? The sentence 'Son Heung-min needs to be excluded and Wilson O'Dowbert' would have sounded crazy a week ago. However, there is no denying that this opinion is completely valid at the moment," he made a difficult argument to admit.

Craig Burley, a former midfielder for the Scottish national team and former players for Chelsea and Celtic, also said, "Son and Medison saw Leicester too easily. Tottenham was overwhelmed at the thought that it could not lose to Leicester but remained arrogant that they could score a goal. They turned the ball leisurely and did not tell them to come to their senses when they made a bad pass. They had to do so at least three to four times at half-time. It was embarrassing. Big clubs do that often," singling out Son and Medison as the culprits for the draw against Leicester.

"Son Heung-min did not perform well enough. We needed to finish the game in the first half," said Jamie O'Hara from Tottenham. "What did Christian Romero do when Leicester scored again? I just saw him lose. His score in the body header was great, but Romero, who led the team to the World Cup, was a mess," Romero also criticized.

As Madison said, the media's bombing was remarkable. Coach Enze Postecoglou's leadership has also come under fire. This happened after just one game. Son Heung-min is the main culprit among the main culprits, and Tottenham under Postecoglou are portrayed as a team that has already failed. Again, they have only played one game.
