Richard Keys has praised Tottenham Hotspur forward Son Heung-min on his personal website, but he does not think that Antonio Conte’s side will win any major silverware this season.

The beIN SPORT presenter is pleased to see Son get back to form for Tottenham with a stunning hat-trick against Leicester City this past weekend.

The £192,000-a-week (SalarySport) South Korea international forward scored three goals against Leicester at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the Premier League.

Son came on as a substitute in the second half.

Keys wrote on his personal website: “It was great to see Son back to his best with that 13-minute hat-trick v Leicester.

“I can’t think of a more popular footballer than him right now. He’s a charmer – all smiles and so humble with it.

“It would be great for him and Kane if Spurs could finally land silverware this season, but don’t count on it.

“I still get the feeling that when it really matters they’ll do what Spurs always do, but the start has been encouraging.”

Staying positive

In our view, Tottenham Hotspur could win a trophy under head coach Antonio Conte this season.

Now, of course, no one expects Tottenham to win the Premier League or the UEFA Champions League.

However, if Spurs drop to the UEFA Europa League, then they could be aim to win it.

There is also the FA Cup and the Carabao Cup to play for.

With Son back in form and Kane banging in the goals like always, Tottenham fans should feel confident about being successful this season.
