Twitter Tuesday: Son scores and Eriksen closes in on extension
By Gary Pearson
Son Heung-Min scored a cracker on international duty, while Christian Eriksen is on the verge of signing a contract extension with Spurs.
Spurs only team Real Madrid couldn’t beat
Real Madrid won their third consecutive Champions League on Saturday after defeating Liverpool 3-1. Spurs, with a win and a draw versus the champs, were the only side to avoid defeat against the Galacticos in Europe.

Wherever he plays, Son scores
Son Heung-Min is up to his old tricks again, this time on the international stage. The South Korean scored a cracker from outside of the box, helping his country to a 2-0 win over Honduras yesterday.

Sketching the gaffer
We’ve featured Amanda’s sketches before, and this certainly won’t be the last time her work appears on our Twitter roundup. Mauricio Pochettino, with his wavy locks, is sketched below, showcasing Amanda’s abundant talent.
Pochettino bids Toby adieu
Pochettino has given Toby Alderweireld his blessing to leave Tottenham in the coming weeks or months. The Belgian stalwart is most likely heading north to play under the tutelage of Jose Mourinho at Manchester United. Spurs are asking for £75 million or Martial in return as part of a high-profile swap. Let’s hope Martial is coming the other way, as Alderweireld will be an influential part of United’s title hopes.

Eriksen set to sign contract extension
As expected Christian Eriksen, as reported by Football London, is on the verge of signing a contract extension with Spurs. Pochettino signed a five-year extension last week, a move expected to motivate Tottenham’s top assets, including Eric Dier, Jan Vertonghen, Harry Kane, Dele Alli, to follow suit.
