It would be a staggering achievement if they can make it.
Tottenham’s Son Heung-min celebrates scoring their second goal with Jan Vertonghen
Heung-Min Son and Dele Alli both netted in Tottenham Hotspur’s impressive win against Swansea City, helping Mauricio Pochettino’s side pile the pressure on league leaders Chelsea.
Yet lost amid the team success was another step towards a fantastic individual achievement.
Tottenham have three separate players each on course to score 20 goals or more this season, a quite staggering feat.
Top scorer Harry Kane is of course already there. He has 19 goals in the Premier League alone, plus two in the Champions League and three in the FA Cup, making it 24 in total.
Tottenham’s Dele Alli celebrates scoring their first goal
Dele Alli’s equaliser against Swansea took his tally to 18 in all competitions. He has 15 in the league, one in the Champions League and two in the FA Cup. It is inevitable that he will surely get two more to reach the 20 mark. It’s even conceivable he could do so this weekend against Watford.
The third player bidding to reach 20 goals is South Korean star Heung-Min Son.
His goal at the Liberty Stadium was his 16th goal for Tottenham this campaign.
He has nine in the Premier League, one in the Champions League, and six in the FA Cup.
There is a strong chance he will net four more before the season ends to join Harry Kane and potentially Dele Alli on 20 goals.
Having three players on 20 goals plus will represent a superb achievement for Spurs. Some clubs go entire campaigns without getting even one player at the milestone.
The way the team is playing, you would be hard pushed to bet against Alli or Son reaching the figure.
