For those sneering at Solanke, who is the alternative? We can only sign players who want to come to Tottenham. Not being in the CL and being miles away from a trophy is a major handicap. Aside from unproven talents from outside the PL, who else could we get that would bring a reasonable guarantee of goals?
Solanke is no guarantee for goals, having had 1 good season despite turning 27 soon.
Not saying that we should snub him for that, but claiming that he is player that guarantees goals is extremely misleading.
