Obviously, Son is irreplaceable - but every team has someone who is the emotional heartbeat of the team and Son most definitely was that for Tottenham, fortunately over the span of 10 years, too. Interesting to see who becomes that in this new era.

Fans should have expected that things may have been a bit rocky as Spurs undergo yet another reset, so as frustrating as a home loss is this early on it is an opportunity to learn from rather than a serious setback. New and returning players would also help in a similar scenario. #COYS

Interesting fact: if Djed Spence gets a cap for England, he will likely be the first Muslim to ever play for the national team. Contrast this with France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Spain, and other major European footballing countries that all regularly feature Muslims.

Similar incident occured at Wimbledon in semi-final between Anisimova and Sabalenka when the American celebrated a winning net cord, rather than offering the traditional hands-up apology wave. Sabalenka was miffed but didn't confront her, though. Is it an American thing? 'Never apologise!'?
Christian Radnedge (@christianrad.com)
On the one hand, I can understand that it is indeed polite to your opponent to acknowledge in some way that you won a point through the good fortune of a net cord - however, it's not something to confront someone over or get that mad about. www.reuters.com/sports/tenni...

A consequence of VAR I really hate is now broadcasters put up constant replays saying "Is THAT a penalty?" "Is THAT a red card?" "Is THAT a free kick?" All long after the fact. It's not about making the game better, it's just a charade to generate even more content for football's greedy paymasters.

I once caught & admonished myself for haggling over what turned out to be £1 in a difference of taxi fee in Nepal. It's all relative, and that's what Levy is doing. It's an instinct.

Apart from obvious, Sonny's goal v City in QF first leg. Also, in terms of excitement, walking down the High Road before the 3-0 against Arsenal in May 2022.
