Former Arsenal striker John Hartson has told BBC Sport that Son Heung-min was sensational for Tottenham Hotspur against Watford on Saturday afternoon.

Son featured for Tottenham in the Premier League game against Watford at White Hart Lane in the Premier League.

The 24-year-old forward started the game and played for 88 minutes, as Tottenham won 4-0.

The South Korea international was the star of the show for Spurs, as he scored two goals.

Former Arsenal striker Hartson was impressed with the performance of Son and has praised him.

“I would use the word sensational for Son,” Hartson told BBC Sport. “Every time he’s had the ball, other than his miss from that Harry Kane pass, he’s been really, really good. A top class player and he gets a big bear hug from his manager.”

Son is a very good player, and he has played well for Tottenham this season and has established themselves as a key figure in the team.

The former Bayer Leverkusen star has scored 11 goals and created 32 chances in 27 Premier League appearances for Spurs so far this season.

Tottenham’s win against Watford keeps up the pressure on London rivals and league leaders Chelsea.

Spurs will return to action next weekend when they take on Bournemouth at White Hart Lane in the Premier League.
