Yes. Very technically capable player, was captain of French U21s. Needs to take a step up in his career now.

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
Solanke has 38 PL goals in 161 games...so circa 1 goal every 4.2 games.
Jackson got 24 in 65...that's a goal every 2.7 games.
Obviously stats ain't everything, but Solanke being criminally underrated is a myth. And he ain't better than Jackson, he just runs more.
Let's be honest, Dom is West Ham or Everton level and we'd all be mocking him if he wasn't Spurs.
Don’t think this one is on.

Been there, done it...was alright to be fair
Shame I think if we didn't faff around with mgw and went for simons instead before chelsea we may of got him hopefully we get Enzo millot

Millot has been played in a ton of different places for Stuttgart. Seems to just pop up all over the place fulfilling different roles in each position. We definitely need a player like that.
Whatever all that means....
I believe Jackson would score more than Solanke, but I'm not so sure he would be better for us as a group.
Jackson and Solanke wiuod be better than Rucharlison and Solanke, but it ain't getting us top 5.
They don't enjoy the truth, pal. So naturally that makes us gooners, c****s etc.
Harsh and unfair to be using stats of when he clearly was still developing. This includes 21 appearances for Liverpool which were probably all substitute appearances. A better statistical metric would be the last 2 prem seasons as then its an even playing field.
Solanke 28 goals in 62 appearances.
Jackson 24 goals in 59 appearances.
He is definitely better than Jackson. I don't know how this has become a debate.
This is a player that I actively want us to avoid.
If we sign him he'd be forcing his way out next summer based on his current form. He refuses to settle. Leipzig rolled out the red carpet for him and he's still forcing his way out a year after being signed in full just because they had a bad season.
I haven’t boiled anything down to a binary. I’ve asked questions. Socratic method.
"Harsh and unfair to be using stats that don't fit my narrative"
Reminds me fucking Anelka with this whole jumping from one club to another
Perhaps no player in world football is more fit for chelsea than him. Brilliant talent, to be fair, but some players are just very Chelsea, and he is one.

Monitoring means they're watching YouTube videos while trying to make their mind up just how little to first bid to not appear insulting.
In Spain it's fuck all to do with the clubs name on the shit, it's just the size of the cheque.
