Son Heung-min. yunhap newsHeung-min Son (30, Tottenham Hotspur) is also a problem for Manchester United.
Manchester United manager Ralph Langnick said at a press conference ahead of their home match against Tottenham Hotspur in the English Premier League round 29 for the 2021-2022 season on the 11th (local time), “Tottenham plays a very simple game with a three-back. Instead, thanks to Son Heung-min and Harry Kane They are the team with the fastest transition.”
One of Tottenham’s strengths is the counterattack that utilizes Son Heung-min’s speed, as assessed by coach Langnick. Both Manchester City and Everton collapsed at Heung-Min Son’s speed.
Rather, weak teams such as Middlesbrough (2nd Division) controlled Son’s speed thanks to lowering the defensive line.
“Tottenham have also lost to Middlesbrough, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Burnley. It is not an impossible team to win if they play at the highest level,” said Langnick. If there is, we can win.”
The defender on the right flank to stop Son Heung-min is still struggling. Rangnick is thinking about Diogo Dalot and Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
Meanwhile, the possibility of Cristiano Ronaldo (Man Utd), who was not able to play due to an injury, was raised. Coach Langnik explained, “Ronaldo has completed all training and is ready to play against Tottenham.” If Ronaldo participates, he will face Heung-Min Son for the second time in the Premier League.
