Son Heung-min has shown leadership worthy of being the Tottenham captain.
Son Heung-min has served as the captain of Tottenham as a foreign player.
They don't make a player captain simply because they've played for a long time or have talent if their leadership is terrible.
Since the UK isn't a place that obsesses over "age" as much as our country does,
the fact that Son became captain based solely on his skill and leadership is truly remarkable.
A captain must be someone whom everyone can agree upon when they wear the armband.
When Zidane crushed Brazil in the World Cup at age 35, who do you think the captain was?
Even when he came back after retiring to captain the team again, no one complained.
Son Heung-min is that kind of presence.
For the record, while Son's form has declined significantly, he still has explosive short-burst speed,
so it might be good to use him explosively for about 60 minutes.
