      Son we 🇮🇩 never forget your supports for convincing Mr Shin Tae-yong became our natonal headcoach football team 4 years ago. Now his coaching made us the only SE Asia team going to 3rd round WC qualification at zone Asia.

      Already a legend, indeed. We don’t deserve you, maestro. I hope that trophy soon finds it way into your hands – you deserve it, thank you for sticking with us 💙

      Why do I respect Son?
      **********************

      When Son scores, Spurs fans say he scored because the assist was so good. When somebody else fails to score, Spurs fans say he failed because Son’s pass to him was not good enough.

      In the game between Leicester and Spurs, Son played as a bait, and he did that magnificiently, but Spurs fans were busy blaming Son for the result. Many of them demanded the ‘old’ Son to be sold, to my contentment.

      In the game between Spurs and Everton, Son played as a striker and scored a brace. I heard Spurs fans shouting ‘Nice one Sonny bla bla’. They do not know how rubbish, blatant, and disgusting they are.

      When Spurs fans are asked who the most important player is, they say it’s Maddison, not Son. That Maddison did nothing but stealing somebody else’s freekick to waste it, and playing as if he is the best player in the world who should deserve respect and worship from all the low class people in the world, including Spurs fans who think it’s their honor to serve him. But I have no idea what he is doing in the pitch. Neither do I know why he is in the starting lineup anyway.

      The reason why Spurs can’t win a title and why Spurs can’t be even in top 4, is the abominable attitude of Spurs fans, of which some English media who don’t like the asian captain love to escalate it.

      Son didn’t get the contract renewal yet, thanks to Levy’s business oriented brain. So it’s time for Son to leave and let Spurs fans and Levy see Spurs disappear from the list of the teams in EPL. Son wouldn’t do that. His DNA is that of a saint. I hear Spurs fans singing ‘Oh when the Saints (not Spurs) go marching in …’ . I might have been hallucinated but that’s why I respect Son.

      He had NUMBERS of offers from TOP teams, but still stayed in Tottenham. If there is one guy who should win a trophy at Spurs, it should be Sonny.

      It’s okay. it’s unfortunate he’s playing for a team that’s always finishing no higher than fourth or fifth but staying at that kind of level for one of the top 10 teams in the world for 10 years is a big achievement he should be happy and proud of becoming a legend and such a club
