Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho clearly believes Son Heung-min was his team’s best player during their 5-0 thrashing of Burnley. The South Korean scored a brilliant individual goal during the rout with Harry Kane netting twice in north London.

Spurs star Son goal hailed as 'one of the greatest individual goals'

Lucas Moura and Moussa Sissoko were also on the scoresheet as Tottenham moved into the top five of the Premier League.

But it was Son who was getting the plaudits for his solo effort having picked the ball up on the edge of his own box before running clear and slotting home.

And manager Mourinho could be heard shouting to give Son the man of the match award while the forward was being interviewed by Sky Sports.

Explaining his goal, Son said: "When I got the ball and tried to pass it to Dele [Alli] but I couldn't find him so I just kept going. I am happy to score this goal.
