Player Watch Player Watch: Dominic Solanke

[matthew.absurdum]

can't fault his effort tbh. At least he kept fighting til the end.

 

[hughy]

The one only consistent positive of our season so far.

 

[Tucker]

I hope we don't run him into the ground in the next few weeks.

I don’t see that we have any other choice tbh. Richarlison isn’t going to be fit for months, and Lankshear isn’t ready.

 

[walton]

Kane aside (obvs), we haven't had as effective a number 9 as Dom for a long time. Such a brilliant team player.

 

[keithtighe93]

The ball sticks to him in a way that it just doesn’t with Richi.

I remember being really impressed with that aspect of his game when he joined, and now I just don’t give it a second thought. Close to H in that area.

His pressing and pace is obvious too.

He fits this team like a glove

 

[bubble07]

Worked his nuts off but only had 1 chance which he did OK with

I have to admit I expected him to have a lorry load of chances for us but that isn't proving the case which is OK as we are scoring plenty

 

[spurs mental]

Heavily involved in everything we do.

Still confident he'll get goals but my god he gives the team so much with his pressing, hold up play and ball carrying ability.

He is insanely unselfish for a striker.

 

[gibbospurs]

Dom Solanke!

 

[markt]

Solid goalscoring and assist record so far, but offers so much in hold up play and pressing.

One of our most consistent performers this season.

 

[allatsea]

I thought he looked knackered around the 70 minute mark but he found some energy from somewhere to keep his pressing up. Excellent performance for the team once again

 

[chas vs dave]

I heard a rumour that Dom decided to run back from manchester.

Hes like forrest gump.

 

[CookieYiddo]

Love everything he is about. A few more goals and this signing will be a superb decision

 

[Danny1]

Joint most G/A this season for us. Excellent all round striker. Quick, intelligent, strong, holds the ball up and presses unlike anyone I’ve seen before.
He is a big reason we score so many goals.

Keep it up big man!

 

[fishhhandaricecake]

Another fantastic all round performance!

Just need to find/buy a reliable back-up for him so we don’t burn him out too much.

 

[Ron Burgundy]

Love everything he is about. A few more goals and this signing will be a superb decision

A few more goals would be great, but he just adds so much, I’m just really happy with him

So strong and quick, such great work rate, and a better passer than I thought.

Honestly can’t think of that many players I’d rather have in his position

 

[sparx100]

He has really surprised me. I was very underwhelmed when he signed but he has really impressed.

Running, pressing, strength, passing and awareness. Shame he didn't get in the scoresheet yesterday but he genuinely occupies the centre backs to allow others to score.

 

[sparx100]

Another fantastic all round performance!

Just need to find/buy a reliable back-up for him so we don’t burn him out too much.

Richarlison and Lankshear are probably our options. I would much rather invest in other areas of the team.

Richarlison is rarely fit, thats the problem.

 

[sparx100]

Richarlison is rarely fit, thats the problem.

Could block Lankshears route in.

 

[spurs mental]

Rewatching the game and my god he is a bully against opposition centre halves with his back to goal.
