Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou has likened Heung-min Son to Cristiano Ronaldo.

Son was again on the scoresheet for last night's 2-1 win at Crystal Palace.

Postecoglou is delighted with the way Son has adjusted to a central role this season: "I don't want to make a similar comparison.

"But you had him at Manchester United, Cristiano [Ronaldo].

"He started off as a winger, but I always felt with Sonny [Heung-min] he's such a great finisher, his movement is outstanding and I think he's clever enough to play in that central area.

"I always like his work ethic, you see his press and that's what initiates the press from a defensive point of view and I knew he had that in him. It's an idea I had in my mind and it worked out."
