SON RALLYING CRY

- RYAN TAYLOR

HEUNG-MIN SON is ready to pick Tottenham up off the canvas once again - despite claiming they have sunk to an all-time low in his decade at the club.

"The Arsenal 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.
