Player Dominic Solanke

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I know Iraola's all about hard running too but I struggle to imagine Solanke running more than he did under Ange last season. Maybe he did more outright sprints for Bournemouth but last season it was Forrest Gump shit all game every game.

Just found this:

He led the entire league for double pressures per 90 last season. Very unsurprising.

EDIT: The fact he was doing this while we were in Europe is even more insane. Bruno's the only regular starter playing in Europe that comes close (Jota was always rotated) and Solanke had almost 50% more than him. Pretty much all the others are playing for teams with 1 game per week.


Great graphic to illustrate why he’s now crippled with injury!
 
Our record signing. Says quite a lot, doesn't it? Can't say I rate him. If you contract his name you get Tony Adams. I mean Sanctuare. I mean Donke
 
Did Solanke take a flight across the Bermuda triangle a few months ago as seems to have disappeared?
Do we have any hypothesis who might have killed big Dom yet :D ?

And why are we pretending that he is injured? some kind of insurance scam :D ?

"Slight knock" - 4 months passed and no signs of him being alive...
Absolutely odd how this has been handled.

Club should be more transparent about his injury now.

Frank needs to explain why there's no update.
Yeah he needs to come out and give updates, he's being vague and short because he's getting pissed off but he needs to rise above it otherwise the support (what's left of it) is going to dwindle.

I HATE to be this guy...
But has anyone else heard the rather odd, unsettling thing about the real THING with Dom?

Its all a bit "He said he said" but I just spoke to another Spurs fan at work (who wouldn't wanna spread that kinda thing) who has heard summit...

It doesn't put the club in very good light .. but it kinda makes sense ...
💉☣️

Anyone else heard whispers of this... Or is it all just straw clutching rumour???

lol what have you heard?
 
Strangest injury situation I’ve ever heard of. He never broke his ankle,there’s no updates,no videos of him training. If I was Solanke I’d be letting people know because the silence is not helping him.

Or he might be having a serious personal problem and it’s not our business.

I mean you don't know what's going on, but he looked alright at the Stranger Things 5 premiere. 😅

People can go out and what have you when struggling etc., but that's a pretty high profile and unnecessary thing to attend if you aren't right.

But THAT'S the problem ..
People are now speculating wildly about what is ACTUALLY wrong...
From what I've heard, it's nothing personal, no addiction, no trauma, no hidden mental issues....
But if what I heard IS true, it's not only embarrassing for the club, it could get us into hot water with the FA/Authorities etc...

Like what then? Mismanagement of treatment - like something that shouldn't have been used?
 
Did I imagine this fella ?
