Tottenham Hotspur striker Heung-Min Son scored yesterday against Watford.
Son has generally been used as a rotational option during his time at Spurs, but the South Korean has shown his scoring talents time and time again.
Son notched 21 goals for Tottenham last season, and he was on the scoresheet yesterday as Pochettino’s side picked up a 1-1 draw with Watford.
Son scored Spurs’ leveller with a close-range finish, to ensure his side got a point at Vicarage Road.
And Sherwood feels that Pochettino should be giving Son the chance to start far more often.
“He’s not had a run, but he has scored again today. He has to play every week,” Sherwood said. “He scores goals. I would find a place in that team ahead of Sissoko, all day long.”
Son now has five goals to his name for Spurs this season, and has enjoyed regular game time recently.
The 25-year-old has started six of Tottenham’s last eight Premier League matches, but he is still far from a permanent fixture in Pochettino’s first choice line-up.
In total, Son has started 13 matches in all competitions this season, with a further seven appearances coming as a substitute.
