Heung-min Son discovers Champions League ban for Tottenham’s semi-final against Ajax during TV interview
Heung-min Son did not know he was banned from the first leg of Tottenham’s Champions League semi-final against Ajax until he was informed during a TV interview.In an incident which mirrors Geoff Shreeves’ infamous conversation with Branislav Ivanovic after Chelsea made the 2012 Champions League Final, the interviewer asks Son how he feels about his suspension, to which the South Korean replies, ‘I didn’t know!’1Tottenham edged out City in a seven-goal thriller on Wednesday night, advancing on away goals after City’s dramatic 4-3 victory.Son played his part in the Champions League triumph, netting twice inside the opening ten minutes.However, he received his third European booking of the season after tugging Kevin De Bruyne’s shirt just after half-time. The 26-year-old will subsequently miss the first leg of the semi-final against Ajax at the new White Hart Lane in two weeks’ time.Spurs have relied heavily on Son for goals in the absence of the injured Harry Kane – and the South Korean could prove a huge miss.Rio Ferdinand, speaking as a pundit on BT Sport, was full of praise for Son following the thriller against City.

Son takes that on the chin and says: ‘Yeah, give it to me. I’ll take all that responsibility. I’ll shoulder that now.’“The way he played, especially in the first-half, was beautiful.”

Alternative Premier League table after 12 matches, based on expected goals
Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho said he ‘doesn’t go for stats’ following his side’s 3-1 derby defeat to Man City on Sunday.It’s probably a good thing too as all the numbers point to a below-par season for the Red Devils, who have a negative goal difference with almost one third of the campaign gone.8It’s not looking good when you consider their expected goals figures too, which suggest they’re actually over-performing at this current time.Here at talkSPORT.com were always keeping an eye onUnderstat.comto see how players and clubs are performing based on their xG stats.Find out how the stats believe the Premier League SHOULD be shaping up below

What is expected goals?

• Expected goals (xG) is a statistic used to work out how many goals should be scored in a match.
• Every single shot is awarded an xG value based on the difficulty of the attempt, with factors including distance from goal, type of shot and number of defenders present affecting the value.
• The higher the xG of a particular shot, the more likely a goal should be scored from that shot.
• The xG valueof every shot in a game is then used to calculate the expected goals in a particular match.

David De Gea made another error leading to a goal to allow Chelsea to equalise against Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday.The goalkeeper has come under fire of late after a string of uncharacteristic mistakes in big matches.Getty2The Spain international was at fault for a Barcelona goal as they were dumped out of the Champions League.He then should have done better with a Leroy Sane shot in the Manchester derby midweek as they were beaten 2-0.Getty2Against Chelsea, he palmed Antonio Rudigers shot straight into the path of Marcos Alonso who was able to then finish from a tight angle.United had taken the lead when Juan Mata scored against his old club but De Geas error allowed the Blues back into the game. Some Manchester United fans on social media were left wondering what has happened to the goalkeeper after another error.
