Player Dominic Solanke

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

He scored like 19league goals for Bournemouth one year. Still crap.

Him scoring a couple of goals doesn't change the fact that he's nowhere near the standard we should be looking to as our number 9.

I guess lots of people are happy with mediocrity.

No one is denying that we could improve on him.

But a CF that deliveres a goal or assist for every ~130 minutes across 2 poor seasons is not in top 5 biggest issues that this squad has right now. We could use a GK that could use his legs for more than standing up. We could use a starting LW that would actually contribute. And then one more winger. We desperately need a deeper midfielder for who could play very cleaver passes upfield. And with Davies out and Souza in - we still desperately need another fullback.

But that is ofc an adult take.
You can go on to be a laughable 6 yo kid in candy store with your mom who wants ALL THE CANDIES... AND RIGHT NOW, MOOOOOM!!! :D
 
I squirm when I have to engage with you.

If big Dom is the standard of player you want leading the line for you, great. I'd prefer a bit above midtable standard players, but each to their own, gents.

This is such a Papafeels strawman response when your original argument is defeated and you have nowhere else to turn, hilarious 😂

He's a child, he thinks we can legit entice Mbappe to play for us or perhaps give Haaland a ring, lets see if he wants to leave City snd come to Spurs :D
 
Another intelligent, well reasoned, balanced retort.

Hes a good premer league player

Strong

Can hold up

Can play people in

Presses really well

When given opportunities will score goals

Theres a lot to like about him, and he is the least of our worries right now

My argument is that we should be doing better than fuckign Solanke.

I maintain my argument. Come back to me at the end of the season if he keeps this up, I'm sure he won't, but if he does, fair enough.
You being a sarcy dick after a good game, very on brand for you. I'll make sure to come back to you.

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.
 
This was posted in the Xavi thread, that 2nd touch, no other striker in our squad is capable of that sort of composure - Rich would have swung his left foot at that.

He has been playing with a little magic dust in his boots lately, really impressed with his work rate to, he has started to settle now and his confidence is there to see, exciting times for him and us, love watching him, if and when our players are fit especially bergvill/kulu we will be some team !

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.
