Clinton Morrison has said on BBC Sport that Tottenham Hotspur forward Son Heung-min played better in the second half than he did in the first against Nottingham Forest away from home at the City Ground in the Premier League on Sunday.
The former Crystal Palace forward believes that Tottenham forward Son was not very good in the first half, but the South Korea international stepped up his game after the interval.
The £22 million South Korean star (Guardian) started the match and was substituted in the 74th minute.
Son took two shots and one was on target, played three key passes, had a pass accuracy of 73.3%, took 25 touches, and put in one cross.

Morrison said about Son on BBC Sport: “Son in the first half didn’t look like the one we know but in this half he’s looked really good and lively.”
Need to do better
In our view, Tottenham Hotspur forward Son Heung-min needs to do better and step up his game.
Yes, Son did well in the second half, but there was a reason why Tottenham head coach Antonio Conte decided to take hm off.
Again.
We should not panic over the South Korean star now, as we know that he is a superb footballer.
Son is just going through a below-par spell at the moment.
He will get back to his best.
Eventually.
