hes just a streaky player. this season is nothing different to any other.

when on form one of the best in the world, but lack of consistency holds him back from being truly world class. hes just a player with world class ability which he displays in streaks.

Spot on

if he comes back into form until the end of the season then we would actually have a chance against city, and would probably win the majority of our games... when on form hes that good... almost unplayable.

wouldnt surprise me if his next goal for us is that game

His pressing against Newcastle when he came on was a joke. He runs at defenders at full speed, they see him coming a mile away and just side stepped him with ease. This happened at least 4 times. He has to do better. He is very weak in a shoulder to shoulder challenge hence why the likes if Sterling, Mane, Salah, a few others are better than him.

I think his streaks of good form have become longer in more recent times. But yes he's having one of his quieter periods right now. Still been one of our better players this season.

Completely agree Spurtle. His purple patches are certainly more prolonged as he develops. I feel at times his covering runs for the team, are perhaps hindering his ability to receive the ball where he is most lethal, to the left corner of the 18.

Son is instantly class because of his pace, finishing and both footedness, what makes him harder to replace despite not having the all round game to be world class imo, depends in what context. he is still, in bad form, top class and our 2nd best player.

You could be right Toby. Certainly the dynamics in the team have changed. We're no longer seeing the link up play with him and Kane like we used to and noticeably Kane's assists have dropped off as well as Son's goals.

Heung-min Son's new #thfc contract is expected to be sealed before the start of next season, with the club awaiting a set date for the return of income streams. | @AlasdairGold

with 2 years left on his contract in the summer its important to get done, as hes important off the pitch as well for us is Son. but also doesnt rule out being able to get a good fee for him still at an older age.
