Son will have his chance to close the gap on Thursday night in a huge North London Derby clash with Arsenal in the race for the top four and given how highly Antonio Conte rates his star man, it would be an enormous shock were he not to start.
Antonio Conte said: “In this team, for sure Sonny we are talking one of the best players in this team. To score goals and have a good performance, only one player can change the life of the team and for this reason, I think Sonny is giving a lot to the team and the team is giving a lot to him to support him and score goals. We are talking about a really good guy, I see him every day and he is a humble guy and is always with a smile on his face. To be his coach is a great pleasure and honour but it is important personal target but the most important thing is to try and match a personal target with a great achievement for the team.”
