Heung-min Son was handed the prestigious Puskas award this week for his solo goal against Burnley last season.
The winger picked up the ball on the edge of his own box before proceeding to run past five or six Burnley defenders, slotting coolly past a helpless Nick Pope.
However, Arsenal legend, Martin Keown has now claimed that Son did not deserve to win the Puskas award for his effort.
The pundit told TalkSPORT that Son merely ran in a straight line and that there were other goals that surpassed his over the course of the year.
Check out the full interview below:
