Heung-min Son has admitted he is lost for words when talking about Tottenham teammate Harry Kane after the pair set a new Premier League record in the 4-0 win over Leeds United.
Kane assisted Son for the final Spurs goal at Elland Road on Saturday which set a new league record for most goals combined between two players.
It was the 37th time the Spurs duo have combined in the English top-flight, which was enough to eclipse the previous number held by Chelsea icons Frank Lampard and Didier Drogba (Premier League).
But despite it being Son’s seventh season in North London alongside Kane, he admits that he still struggles to find the words to describe the performances of the England captain.
Son said (via Football.London): “What can I say more about Harry? I think any compliment, I’m gone. I can’t say any more words about him.
“You can say ‘superb’. You can say ‘phenomenal’. It’s not enough for me. I’ve played together with him for a long time and I’m still looking at him and thinking, ‘Wow, this is unbelievable’, you know?
“So I think the words are not enough for me. He’s just an unreal player. I’m really happy to work with him every day and playing together is a big honour.”
Son then took the time to praise Kane’s all-round ability aside from scoring goals, but explained that the team needed to provide support for him as well going forward.
He added: “When you think a striker is always scoring goals and a number 10 is also making assists, he can do both for two or three seasons.
“He wants to improve for himself. This is his ability, he’s so good to watch. He can play number 10, number nine. Whatever we need. To have a striker like this is massive.
“What can I say? What I can about Harry? He’s doing so well, we’re glad to have him and we can still help him as well to get many goals.
“He’s a striker and he’s still hungry for goals and big things as a team. We need to help him as well, work for him, create chances for him. This is a team thing.”
Spurs Web Opinion
Son and Kane have had this telepathic partnership for the last few seasons and it has allowed them to become one of the most fearsome duos in the world. Kane’s finishing is obviously a big help, but his range of passing allows Son to latch on in behind defenders, which has been so difficult to stop recently.
