Son has won September 2023's award putting him in good company:
7: Sergio Aguero; Harry Kane
6: Steven Gerrard; Cristiano Ronaldo
5: Wayne Rooney; Robin van Persie
4: Son Heung-min; Dennis Bergkamp; Bruno Fernandes; Thierry Henry; Frank Lampard; Marcus Rashford; Mohamed Salah; Paul Scholes; Alan Shearer; Jamie Vardy
Son is one of the most underrated players in the Premier League. And one of the most hard working too - did you know he endured all last season carrying an agonising sports hernia? He didn't get the operation he needed until the season ended because he didn't want to let the side down, even though it was very clearly affecting his form. Incredibly well deserved. A true Prem hero. Whoever downvoted this: you know nothing about football. Miserable gits.
He's proved to be a great captain too. A great leader.
