Son Heung-min is ready to pick Tottenham up off the canvas once again - despite claiming Spurs have sunk to an all-time low during his decade at the club. Their worrying season plunged to new depths of despair on Wednesday night when they were beaten in the north London derby at Arsenal, meaning Tottenham have lost 11 of their 21 Premier League matches this term.
But Son is convinced all hope is not lost, particularly with a crucial Carabao Cup semi-final second leg on the horizon against Liverpool, stating: "It’s a big pain. The game means a lot for the club and the fans, it was a very frustrating and painful night.
"I am in there every single day taking responsibility and I just want to lift them as much as I can. But sometimes, when the results are not there, with a young group they are really down. "I've been here almost 10 years and have never been in this position, this kind of situation. We are where we are, so I need to be stronger and to lead the group in a positive way.".
Spurs travel to Everton today and in previous years, Goodison Park is a ground that has brought them great joy. The Toffees have not beaten Tottenham on home soil in the top-flight in over 12 years and are six matches without a win in the Premier League.
Ange Postecoglou retains the full backing of the Spurs hierarchy and also his captain, who is adamant the players must take responsibility for their inconsistent displays. Son, who struck the opener against the Gunners, continued: "It’s not only the manager, it’s also the players and everybody. The results are not something someone should take all the responsibility and blame for. Sometimes it is unlucky that you don’t get the results.
