Son Heung-min:

No penalties either

I said in terms of to the club, not that actual team itself.

To the team it doesn't make a difference of his ethnicity or nationality but to the club being Korean brings extra money in and boosts the brand Tottenham.

There's massive interest in Tottenham from South Koreans just cos of him.

He is the superstar of Asian football isnt he? Their Beckham.

100% a factor.

I'd be interested to know if a Korean star like Son is popular in other parts of Asia like China and Japan or just in South Korea.

It makes a big difference in terms of merchandise if he only/ mainly has fans in S. Korea.

No. He plays some horrible football at times but come on, 16 goals this term and seems to pop up when you least expect it to score. I got to thinking he does it on purpose, plays like a donkey so defenders don't pay him enough attention then pow, he strikes. There is also a reason Poch keeps banging on about the team. Son is a team player, low on ego high on the work ethic. We need him in the squad as much as most other players. Sissoko on the other hand just keeps getting worse. I hate to pick out a bum player but bum is all that springs to mind when I think about his contribution. I would bite their hand off if someone offered half that for Sissoko in his current form.

Clown shoes is a proven goal scorer with the ability to change games. He doing well and selling him would be an act of madness.

Amazing that someone nicknamed clown shoes is such an important player.

For the life of me I'll never know what they saw in him. He's an athlete not a footballer.

I actually can't believe this is a discussion

A squad player that has scored 16 goals, its not so long ago our main striker couldn't score as many.

Ridiculous notion to even consider selling him, most clubs would kill for a squad player to do what he does

Couldn't agree more.

Certain fan favourites contribute far less but get praised higher.

He's got 2 great feet, can score from any angle, takes on players, creates chances, works his absolute socks off in every game, and is one of the reasons we are having the season of our lives.

He was an absolute snip & I wouldn't sell him for £100m .
