Son Heung-min gives glowing early verdict on Ange Postecoglou

Son Heung-min has described his relationship with Ange Postecoglou, revealing the new Tottenham manager has won the squad over with his down-to-earth manner.

Postecoglou and Spurs have proved to be a good fit so far, taking 26 points from their first ten Premier League Games of the season before disappointing losses to Chelsea and Wolves. The Greek-Australian became the first head coach to win the league's Manager of the Month award for the first three months of a single season.

With Harry Kane gone and Hugo Lloris out of the first-team picture, Son was made Tottenham captain before the start of the 2023/24 campaign and has scored eight league goals so far, just two shy of his tally for the previous term.

"It's crazy actually the way he [Postecoglou] speaks...the way he talks is fantastic as a human being, as a coach, it's nothing more than that. It's amazing," Son told Men in Blazers.

"I'm 31 years old, I learned many things before and I felt as a human I felt that I had enough, but then since he arrived I feel like 'wow! I'm still a child'.

"The way he speaks, I feel like my heart is bouncing. I just want to go out and play for him and play for the club. It feels like he's just part of my family."

Spurs' squad depth has been tested by suspensions and injuries in their last two Games, leading to defeats to Chelsea and Wolves. However, Son says his side still have new heights to hit despite their best ever start to a Premier League campaign.

"I think you still haven't seen our best," he added. "We don't want to be the best, we want to be special. To be special you have to work hard and be a comPetitor. You can always dream for yourself, but we are living in the present, looking day by day, Game by Game and then we'll see where we are at the end of the season. I don't like to talk about the past or the future.

"There are so many better teams in the Premier League, we have to work harder than them."

S29. The Enigmatic Divide: Exploring Why the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans Don’t Mix. S29

The world’s oceaпs, vast aпd mysterioυs, hold maпy secrets withiп their depths. Amoпg their eпigmatic woпders is the pecυliar pheпomeпoп of the Atlaпtic aпd Pacific Oceaпs steadfastly maiпtaiпiпg their boυпdaries, resistiпg the υrge to iпtermiпgle oп a graпd scale. Iп this article, we delve iпto the captivatiпg reasoпs behiпd the distiпctiveпess of these two mighty bodies of water. Oпe crυcial aspect that keeps the Atlaпtic aпd Pacific Oceaпs apart lies iп the disparity of their water deпsities. Seawater deпsity is iпflυeпced by variables like temperatυre, saliпity, aпd pressυre. The Atlaпtic Oceaп boasts higher saliпity levels, primarily dυe to its sigпificaпt freshwater iпflυx from rivers. Coпversely, the Pacific Oceaп hosts larger areas of lower saliпity waters, coυrtesy of factors like raiпfall aпd meltiпg ice.

A Mysterious Object 570 billion times brighter than the sun has been found by astronomers

Image
There is a massive ball of hot gas billions of light-years distant that is brighter than hundreds of billions of suns. [ This is an updated version of the previous article. ] It’s difficult to envision anything so bright. So, what exactly is it? Astronomers aren’t sure, but they do have a few theories. They believe it is a magnetar, a kind of supernova that is so strong that it pushes the energy boundaries of physics, or the most powerful supernova ever witnessed as of today. Astronomers are struggling to find a way to characterize this object since it is so bright . “If it’s a magnetar, it’s as if nature took everything we know about magnetars and turned it up to 11,” said Krzysztof Stanek, professor of Astronomy at Ohio State University and the team’s co-principal investigator. The All-Sky Automated Survey of Supernovae (ASAS-SN or “assassin”), a compact network of telescopes meant to locate luminous things in the cosmo...
