#4 Heung-min Son

Tottenham Hotspur v Borussia Dortmund - UEFA Champions League Round of 16: First Leg
Tottenham Hotspur v Borussia Dortmund - UEFA Champions League Round of 16: First Leg

Heung-min Son has finally emerged out of the shadows of his strike partner Harry Kane, becoming as important - if not more - a member of the Spurs side.

Son kept the Lilywhites competitive in Kane's absence, scoring a goal apiece against Newcastle and Leicester to take his tally for the season to 11.

Son has enjoyed a lot more creative freedom this season and that has reflected in his performances. He was the proverbial pain in the ar** for Borussia Dortmund in the first leg of their Champions League encounter, keeping the likes of Zagadou and Toprak on their toes.

He scored Spurs' first goal in the game which opened the floodgates for the Londoners to take a whopping 3-0 lead to Germany and they are expected to come through unscathed.

While Spurs have gone off the boil somewhat of late, it's up to Son to lift them again and if he can inspire them to a semifinal berth in the Champions League and a top-two finish in the Premier League, he could find himself a lot higher in the rankings.
