“Tottenham urged to bench Son Heung-min after dismal Man United display – ‘His time is running out!’”

“Tottenham pressured to drop Son Heung-min after Man United incident – ‘His days are numbered!’”

Ange Postecoglou has struggled to depend on Son Heung-min this season, as the forward has largely underperformed and managed just six Premier League goals.

Tottenham’s injury struggles have likely kept Son Heung-min in Postecoglou’s starting XI in recent weeks. However, with Brennan Johnson returning, the Australian may explore other options.

Following his underwhelming display in Spurs’ 1-0 victory over Manchester United on February 16, frustration among fans appears to be growing.

Could Tottenham drop Son Heung-min?

Despite being trusted to start against United, Son once again fell short of expectations, raising questions about his place in the lineup.

However, there was one key moment in the game when Spurs had the chance to double their lead, and it highlighted that Son was simply not on his game.

The forward collected the ball on the edge of the box following a sharp counter-attack, dribbled past a couple of defenders, but then fired his shot directly into the feet of Matthijs de Ligt.

Tottenham fans vented their frustration on social media, with one even suggesting that Son’s “days are numbered” at the club.

 

Son Heung-min’s future at Tottenham may be uncertain, but his legacy at the club is undeniable. Despite struggling for form this season, the South Korean forward has been a key figure since joining in 2015, cementing his status as a Tottenham legend over the past decade.

 

As Son enters the latter stages of his career, it seems his effectiveness for Postecoglou is diminishing, with noticeable decline compared to last season.

 

When Harry Kane was still at Tottenham, Son flourished, but he’s struggled to reach the same heights since Kane’s high-profile move to Bayern Munich.

 

Despite attempts to strengthen the squad with players like Dominic Solanke, Spurs don’t appear to be on track to revisit their Champions League final days anytime soon.

 

If Son can’t return to his best form and reclaim his role as Postecoglou’s standout player, it’s difficult to see how he can justify a continued spot in the starting li
