Comparing Erling Haaland to Son is completely out of the question because there is a substantial distinction between a player who is spoonfed hundreds of passes just for him to score and players who hustle their way out for this goals ranking. What I'm trying to comprehend completely is Son is more effective with footings on the ball than Erling Haaland who is only in it for the goals. Son Heung-Min's performance has improved since Harry Kane's departure from Tottenham this summer. All the weights that have circulated the Englishman have turned out to face Son, and he is ready to lead his squad to glory. Angelos Postecoglou, the new manager, is also an amazing piece of creativity that supports his players in competing for the EPL crown this season.
I'm glad you have same observation as mine, few weeks back before the international break, I watch one of the games Manchester city played in the premier league and I observed erling haaland carefully and came to a conclusion that he was typically a goal scorer but some other person's argued vhemently with me saying he is rather creative, but I still maintained my stands.

Haaland is a good play no doubts but on thing is sure if he were to be placed in such position as son, where he has to make the play, create the chances and score a goal, I don't think he will do better, son is a play maker, creative and hustles for his ball mean while haaland on the other hand as good good team mates up on which he is some how dependent upon, so the comparison doesn't have matching points.

Agree, that Son is a hard worker and independent and even his individual abilities have been tested over several seasons. It is difficult to compare him with Haaland because in this case Haaland is only a goal machine who still relies on assists from other people, namely Kevin De Bruyne. Meanwhile, Son is able to create his own float, can move independently and has individual skills both as an assist and as a goal scorer. Haaland currently does not have the ability to supply the ball. It is clear that this season without Kevin De Bruyne, his productivity in scoring goals has dropped drastically.

At the end of October we will see Manchester City face Manchester United. If you are still without Kevin De Bruyne, it will make you wonder whether Haaland can score more than 2 goals. I will not underestimate Manchester United because for them playing at home this match will be very important.
