  1. Action speaks louder than words. This is absolute commitment and discipline which few, if any, can rival. There are many so-called professional players who could learn from Sonny and his dad what true professionalism is. If the rest of the Spurs team has the same attitude, it'll strike fear in the other Premier League teams, bar none. Bielsa would love to have someone like Sonny play his kind of football.

  3. Some people will say his father is too strict and a disciplinarian, but all the hard work pays off in the end in some shape or form. I see so many kids that obviously grew up without any discipline or guidance by their fathers.

  4. Ruling your child with an iron fist has big disadvantages that this father is too myopic to notice. As the saying goes, "When the cat is away, the mice will play." Look what happened when Son was at his first Asian Cup tournament: he gained 4 kg, because without his father instructing him, he couldn't control his own appetite. Maybe he was enjoying the night life a bit too much as well, because there was once a scandal in the Asian Cup held in Indonesia that emerged when stories emerged of the players going out many nights during this tournament when they were eliminated early. So the poor lifestyle discipline seems to be a sort of cultural symptom of too much external discipline and strictness from an early age. A far better approach would be to nurture intrinsic motivation to follow a disciplined lifestyle rather than make the young player dependent on strict father figures.

  5. There's a lot of parents who act like strict disciplinarians but dont actually put in the work to help them like Sonnys dad. They just yell at their kids to do better without actually giving them the tools to do so. Theres a difference.

  6. Wow, Sonny! Even your dad looks good! πŸ˜πŸ‘ŒπŸ‘ŒπŸ‘Œ All the hard work certainly pays off! πŸ˜πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘βš½οΈπŸ₯‡πŸ₯‡πŸ₯‡πŸ†πŸ†πŸ†πŸ’Ÿ Hats off to your dad! ν™§νŒ…! πŸ™‚

  7. y a pesar de que su padre es muy estricto sonny es el tipo mas feliz, siempre sonriendo y haciendo sentir a todos bien! es tan cΓ‘lido y estoy segura que su padre tambiΓ©n lo es en la intimidad

  8. You can tell his father's strictness and training really did pay off a lot. Sonny literally has no weak foot, his goals with both his left and right foot are just so amazing!!

  9. I am TELLING you… from both sides of the spectrum… You kind of need a father/mother pushing you or else you will never succeed. I would say the compromise with modern day parenting is you should PRAISE more… in a HOORRRAHHH sort of fashion… but still… you need to push…
