All he needed was a week of rest.
Son Heung-min returned to action for Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday following a hamstring injury that many assumed would see him sidelined for a number of weeks.
Taking on Manchester United,... Son scored twice in the first half,... once in the 7th minute and again in the 37th minute.
Son also provided an assist for Harry Kane to slot home in the 30th minute,... to help Tottenham thrash Manchester United 6-1 at Old Trafford.
The resounding victory gives Spurs their second win of the EPL season.
They have seven points from four matches,... putting Spurs in sixth place.
After his four goal performance against Southampton last month,... Son's brace bumps him to six goals so far this season,... sharing the top of the EPL's top scorer list with Everton's Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
The two goal performance also set a new milestone for the South Korean international.
During his five seasons in Germany's Bundesliga,... Son scored 41 league goals in 135 matches.
Since arriving in England, Son has 59 EPL goals in 164 matches,... bringing his total league goal tally to 100.
Not only does he become the highest scoring South Korean footballer to play in Europe,... but he also surpasses South Korean legend Cha Bum-kun,... who scored 98 goals in 308 matches in the Bundesliga in the 1970s and 80s.
