Player Dominic Solanke

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

No it's not you categorically said that Solanke is 'dog shit' you then tried to move the goalposts by saying we cant rely on him because he's injury prone (even though he isn't) and then you tried to move the goalposts again by making out this is now your argument, you're full of absolute shit and now you're trying to deflect because people are mocking your original comment.

Stop being a dickhead and take the L, it's ok to get things wrong mate, it's not that deep man...Christ.
He is. A couple of games of him scoring won't make me change my opinion, because I'm not a kneejerk idiot.

He's missed probably 35-40% of last season up to now. Actually, you're right, that's not injury prone at all.

Take the L. God above my guy. You are pathetic. I'm not here trying to win anything. I'm expressing my views on a forum. You have your God awful opinions, I have mine.

What goal posts did I move? My stance is that A) he's not good enough. That is the most important one. B) he's missed a stupendous amount of games since he's got here, so if we wheel him out as our number 1 option next year, and he goes down, we're left with a repeat of this.

You've confused yourself. Bless.
 
Yeah? Now name the ones who we can sign realistically and who will move the needle for us...
Hey, that's your favourite term. That's a strawman argument. Fun fact. A football team employs people who watch and analyse player performances to see if they'd be a good match for their club. They're called scouts. I'm not a scout.

But are there better strikers between Dom Solanke, who is at best a starting calibre forward for a midtable team, and the likes of the Mbappe's and Haaland's of this world (another strawman argument from yourself), yes, Unequivocally.

Absolute waffle

The classic 'I'm not employed by the club even though I'm adamant we can do better' retort fucking hell 😆
 
That's you down to a T. Sweeping nonsense insults, no argument, run away.

Pointless arguing with someone who's gonna deflect and move the goalposts, like it's actually pointless.

And also Insults yeah? Lmao

If i knew you would be this precious then I wouldn't have engaged with you in the first place, you're an emotional fella aren't you.
 
Bitch fight in progress.

No backup required.

What goal posts have I moved, pray tell? I've said, and maintained he's not good enough. I've said he can't be relied upon because he's missed injuries.

You keep adding in new arguments, moving goal posts.

Go on, of you're going to say that someone does two things, like strawman and goal posts moving, which is your specialty, you have to give specific examples. Not these sweeping statements that make you look right.

I already told you literally a couple of posts ago, if you can't see how you have tried to re-engineer your argument and reframe it then you really lack sele awareness skills.

Funny how you are the only one that says this these are my favourite terms well perhaps if you don't constantly do it then I wouldn't keep saying it :porrohands:

No, just because you keep shouting something doesn't make it true. You called my last post moving goal posts. If you want to keeping making these sweeping statements, go ahead. Show me, because obviously I'm missing something.

You have nothing to show me, because all you do is rage bait. Personally I think it's pathetic behavior from people not equipped to have a debate with someone and it gives the impression that you've gained the upper hand; or rinsed, or schooled or burned me, whatever word you used. When you just shout louder.

Show me where I reframed it, and what from to what to.

Edit: Thought as much

Jesus Christ. Some morons here today. You and shady giving eachother the old reach arounds. Where am I throwing my toys out the pram? Because he's not good enough?

He's a player that is fine. Not good enough to be starting at any top half club. Two seasons in a row now with injuries where he's missed good chunks.

You boys love being mediocre, Shady in particular gets off on it in particular, so he can spam Levy posts, as usual.

Anyway, what a weird thing to write. If you're happy with sub par shite at the club, be my guest, that's on you.

MOOOMMM... LOOK. I DO NOT HAVE THE SHINIEST TOYYYY.

MOOOOOMMM... DOOO SOMETHING ABOUT IIIITTT.
 
I would be more than happy about Solanke playing as one of our strikers, if only he didnt suffer from so many injuries, severe at that.

If his injuries dry up, great! But we should look to offload Richarlison and bring a striker regarded as higher quality than Solanke.

That is how a big club needs to act, whether we are that recently is up for debate.
 
I like him. He holds the ball up well. He can score goals. His movement is good. He presses very well. He has high football I.Q. he seems a good lad. If he can stay fit, he's a very good fit for us. Just my opinion of course. I know that I know fuck all about football.
 
I've always liked dom as a team player got a great work ethic , decent pace, good with his feet and has sufficient strength for a 9 to hold his own against prem monster CBS... Injuries... Unfortunately That's just pot luc... My ONLY issue was/is his delivery of goals and him as a goal threat..my guts telling me the way Frank has us playing will suit Dom a lot more than under ange... But early doors ... Lets hope he can carry on the way he's started his return...
 
Good catch, engaging with someone with 2,5 braincells, such as you does feel like having a stroke over and over again :thumbup:
Sorry to have to do this, but it's 2.5* not 2,5. Unless this is for some number puzzle asking for what comes next in the sequence. But that makes little sense, given the context. There should also be a full stop instead of a comma after good catch.

I guess my 2.5 brain cells are better than your 2,0 😉

You don't have to engage with me. You did so of your own free volition, I wasn't talking to you. So feel free to take your odd baby fetish nonsense somewhere else.

Cheers.
