For the last 2 games having Solanke available would be a good thing. The rest is for the end of season.
Agree.
I think he was a horrible signing - but we have no other options in the bench - so better that nothing.

He said last Thursday that he could be back for the game at the Bridge.De Zerbi has been silent ro date, so maybe he will reveal more at his next press conference.
Hopefully.
Reports emerged suggesting the injury would be a season-ender, but De Zerbi seems cautiously optimistic that he could return in time for Tottenham’s penultimate match of the season against Chelsea.
"About Solanke, he's improving very quickly. I don't know, for this game, I don't know if he can be available," he said. "We hope for the next game in Stamford Bridge."

Spurs injury update: Simons, Solanke and Vicario latest return dates
Spurs spurned huge opportunity to propel themselves away from relegation troublewww.standard.co.uk
Yes, so let's hope Solake is not just fit for that game,but also wanting to give his all for the cause.
We need something from the bloke.
I think he's stuck in a silly trap.
Doesn't want to get stuck in in case he gets injured before the world cup.
But won't get a call up to the world cup because he's playing at under 50%
Think that is harsh. He presses far better than the other 2 and is better at shielding the ball and connecting forward players.I think his hold up play is over rated.
He does no better than Muani in that he keeps it for 5-10 seconds then loses it.

The problem with Solanke is that his ceiling is so low. He just isn't a top player and never will be. Muani and Richarlison can have magic monets, Solanke (bar that one nice back heel goal against City), doesn't produce those moments.
For me Solanke has a higher floor. Reliable work rate, presses well, puts in a shift and connects the team with some good hold up play. But thats all he gives. Richarlison and Muani can play absolute stinkers and become liabilities, but they have some magic moments in them and can score a goal out of nothing.
I'd rather the hard working Solabke way to Chelsea. I'd rather one of the other 2 at home to Everton.
He's been a total flop for us. I don't know how he was ever a 90m rated player
Not sure, he cut himself while shaving.
He started off injured, then played like he made a mistake coming here when he got fit.He's been a total flop for us. I don't know how he was ever a 90m rated player

By the time he pulled his finger out of his arse hole and started putting a shift in, we were in the bottom 5 and headed out of the league.
I think it was his early injury and attitude that left us with a dud.
It was definitely attitude. The fact his stand out performance came against his former club PSG tells you everything you need to know. His heart was never in this challenge for us.He started off injured, then played like he made a mistake coming here when he got fit.

Some of his performances under Frank should have resulted in docked wages.It was definitely attitude. The fact his stand out performance came against his former club PSG tells you everything you need to know. His heart was never in this challenge for us.
TBF it was an awful move for him. Frank is not the coach you want if you are a player like him. His heart was never in it
Frank is not a manager for any player.It was definitely attitude. The fact his stand out performance came against his former club PSG tells you everything you need to know. His heart was never in this challenge for us.
