Son wins Player of Month award

The South Korean has been in sensational form for Spurs of late and enjoyed a successful September, scoring four goals.

The Spurs man's goals were made up of two braces, firstly in a 4-0 win over Stoke City and then in Tottenham's 2-1 victory over Middlesbrough.

Upon winning the award, Son said it was a "dream" and that he wants to win it repeatedly.

"This is my dream, to get the award," he said. "I want to get it a second time, a third time. When I take the award home my family will be crazy like you can't believe; they will be really happy. 

"I'm very thankful for the support. They support every day, every weekend, every game".

One of the most encouraging aspects of Son's performances for Spurs is that they have coincided with the injury to Harry Kane - their top goalscorer in the past two seasons - meaning Pochettino and Co have not missed the England man.

Son beat the likes of Theo Walcott, Adam Lallana, Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku to the award.
