Tottenham hero Ledley King has hailed the instant impact of Heung-Min Son.

The South Korean scored the winner against Crystal Palace on Sunday.

“I did not know too much about him before he joined but I have been very impressed," said former Spurs captain King to the London Evening Standard. “He is very confident, his energy levels are high, he wants to make things happen and the fans love players like that.

“He does not seem to be fazed by playing in front of the crowd at White Hart Lane and that is always a good sign. It is about him progressing now and if he keeps scoring goals it will be great for Tottenham. This is just the start but there is no better way to introduce yourself to the fans than to score against Arsenal."
