You think someone will pay transfer fee and give him 8-10M per season?

Nope.... Free trf is the best we can hope for.

It’s clear that lot of fans don’t rate him because he’s old/etc whatever. But he’s better than any of our backup wingers by a mile.

Can he roll back the years and have a good game? Int. appearances say yes; but be fair; he struggled last season the longer it went on.......

We have Son, Gil, Richy & now Solomon that can all play LW

On the bright side, he barely played as a winger last season. He’s capable still. I have zero faith in Gill honestly. His only real value is that he’s still young and could improve. Paratici made the worst transfer ever by giving Lamela and 25M for him.

Gil has great football intelligence which is hard to train into a player, he needs to fill out his frame and gain some dynamism, he is too easily bullied off the ball in the PL and not an especially gifted dribbler from what I've seen but if he gets stronger and a bit bigger it could completely change him as a player. We paid 25+Lamela for that potential, just a question of it panning out (or not).
 
I would prefer Solomon over Harvey Barnes, he fits Ange's system better.

Barnes is a poor dribbler and in the bottom 2 percentile for successful dribble % vs Solomon who was in the top 87th percentile.

I don't think Solomon will displace anyone in the 1st 11, but could be an amazing super sub with his dribbling ability, speed, quick feet and he is also in the 99th percentile for both tackles made and % of dribblers tackled, which is handy for a high press. He can also play LW & RW and considering Ange subbed both wingers in all but 5 league games last year, could be a very important player from the bench.

Son turns 31 next Saturday, and needs to hit the ground running next season.

Good cover, but i think Ange sees Solomon as a good left sided option for Son?
 
No qualms with Solomon

Pacey, direct, 2 footed

Something this squad needs desperately

Oh and Jewish, representing my man dem
I couldn't give a fuck if he was Jewish , being in Israel a few times and 99.99% of the population don't give a monkeys about Spurs , all glory boys loving Franco's Madrid, Nazi Chavs , Arab PSG and anyone that can win a trophy. Most of them haven't even heard of us .
Personally this sort of squad cheap punt sign-in rarely works and just packs the squad with mainly miss players , rarely a hit .
Madison was a triumph but this sort of signing is why we can't offload players in the future or win fuck all.
I do hope l'm wrong but our present history is littered with transfer incompetence.
 
I think it's pretty clear the window will end with

Vicario
Maddison
Solomon
One of Tapsoba or Van de Ven
Lenglet

Not sure if that ticks a lot of boxes tbh

Well, given that none of our ITK knew anything about Vicario and Solomon; I'd take a guess that we cannot really be sure what the club is working on behind the scenes.

I'd expect outgoings of Sanchez and Perisic to be wrapped up b4 the pre season tour; and hopefully a new CB in.

The challenge that the club and Ange has is to establish if Kane, Romero, RIcharlison and Hojbjerg want to be part of this new project.
 
If we get Tapsoba and VDV then that would be a great window. I doubt we will get both though but we should try. I’m pretty sure we’ll see quite a few go and there will be a freshness to it all. Regarding the Solomon signing he is such an Ange style winger. I think a lot on here think he might just be a back up but I wouldn’t be surprised to see him start left of the 3 up top. Saw him play against Scotland a few times and he was outstanding. Had an injury which disrupted his season last season. Everyone wants big names that is a statement signing but there’s loads of players and that just need that opportunity at a big club to show how good they are. Solomon will show he is better than the likes of Mudryk,Anthony and Sancho.
 
I'm not sure mate.

Our priority signings are centre backs.

The transfer noises were that we might go for a younger wide player and apparently Postecoglou likes his wingers to be quick and good 1vs1 dribblers. Solomon seems to fit that profile.

He missed the 1st half of the season too so that probably derailed his season.

I think he might be a good impact player without any real risk while also adding squad depth since moura and Danjuma have left.

Ok sure that makes sense. If the manager wants him then fine.
