We didn't pay 65 and based on the add ons (you know winning stuff) we will never pay 65

I understand you mah dude - Solanke can be a baller but not in this current Spurs & yeah Richaliosis has fallen off a cliff...
We've seen lately players that have played for their clubs that were 'shit' but move to another club & perform well.
I'm done criticising Spurs players in this current setup as I don't know if they're coached to play this shit or are just this shit...
Scored 19 league goals last season, didn't miss a game. Coached by Iraola.
Coached by Ange, gets no service and has injuries.
None of these players can be properly judged under this coach.

Agree I'm holding off any criticism now till change comes in - it's not the 'Ange out' fans shutting it down but they have a point that Ange *could* be the issue & I can't discount it unless there's specific injuries etc outside of the scope if that makes sense - like a player getting arrested, getting divorced etc
That means no player can be judged properly under Ange..
The likes of Richardson have been here awhile and been shit the whole time, and never had any standout seasons in the Premier League. So I'd probably judge him, for example.
Solanke has had one season here coming off of an excellent season at Bournemouth. I would reserve judgement, as his only experience of Spurs is this car crash Ange.
I'm convinced there's a very good player in there , trouble is the " system " completely negates playing to his strengths .
Get a proper coach in to sort the mess out and I'm sure he will come good

He's probably better than what Postecoglou is getting from him, however he's never been very good anywhere apart from one fairly good season before he joined.
The Bounemouth replacement for Solanke, who of course we couldn't ever scout or develop has scored as many PL goals.
Solanke is okay but he may not survive a new manager who wants his strikers to score goals.

Evanilson? The guy who, so far, hasn't even reached half of Solanke's tally for Bournemouth last season under the same manager?
And Solanke for us?
The point I am making is that Solanke is nothing special.
To that logic how many goals do you think Evanilson scores for us this season?
Hypothetical, so unanswerable. No less than Solanke however.
Right ok then
Like too many of our players, better by perception than reality.
What do I mean - when Solanke isn't playing,it's he would have scored there, and when he plays, it's quite different.
Will need to either find something for the first leg against Frankfurt or risk losing his starting spot to Richarlison (if he stays fit for 2 weeks) in the second leg at least.
Needs to be doing better.

Part of the truth.
It can never just be on that basis.
That's the basis saved for all our players so why not Solanke?
