“Soccer is a goal-scoring sport. If he scores, Tottenham wins. If he doesn’t, it will be difficult. Madsen doesn’t score those goals,” he added.
Son has been the team’s talisman up front this season. His first goal of the season came against Burnley. He scored a hat trick in a three-goal blitz to put an end to a promising start.
