OMT ** Tottenham Hotspur v Wolves ** 29 December 2024.

A lot of running and pressing from Solanke, BUT it is hard to find him in the pen area. I guess we were spoiled by Kane for so many years and he was great finding space for himself in front of goal.

 

[Bedfordspurs]

I think if we played to his strengths he's still got something to contribute. If we're not then he's pointless.

Guess the other factor in that equation is how long the manager is gonna last. If Ange goes the new guy may play him off Solanke, all of a sudden he looks useful.

What’s the strengths? He can’t even run now
It’s horrible to see live because you see a legend disintegrate

Score haha

You’re a lucky charm, you need to come back more often

 

[Jurgen the German]

Nobody has ever come in for Son because he doesn’t do anything other than score goals.

Nope, he’s always in the top 10-20 for assists and chances created too. Not many forwards in world football get 20+ goals per season. If he had downed tools like Kane did under Nuno then I think clubs would have started sniffing around Son.

'Cutting us apart'? Please.

Don't feed the troll. The ignore function is beautiful

 

[thfcsteff]

100%
They want to play
Even son who is having a mare again.. he is trying

Yes mate.
On another note, I cannot take some criticisms on this forum seriously because they are baked in a lack of perspective and 'real time'.

 

[Jurgen the German]

Johnson is fighting
It’s right in front of me
Getting kicked
Running
All the basics
Sonny is like a kid changing everything but offering nothing
Scarily different

Think we’re setting the bar too low if we’re content with a forward just working hard. I’d also like a forward who can beat a man, take people on, create etc. none of which Johnson ever does.

This is what hurts the most. Like I alluded to in the Forest thread. Its almost like watching a Boxer you have loved having two fights too many

 

[SpurMeUp]

Solanke needs to be on pen duty from now.

Off the last man I'd still back him to bend it in the corner. You want him on the ball as little as possible. Everything played in front of him to run onto.

Or Porro

 

[Mikey10]

Can’t help but think a battling, gritty win is just what we need. Halfway there.

I wouldn’t anymore
He is hitting everything so weakly
It’s like he can’t play anymore
He was the best finisher I’ve seen. I wouldn’t back him to finish a toss now

Yep
Saw it last year but his numbers were still good
I do hope that it’s an injury but I’m not sure

Will you take one who scores? Starts goalscoring moves? Assists? Wins pens? Try looking at what he DOES do not what he doesn't; much easier, especially because he does do stuff for us!

 

[Outrance]

I will never understand the flimflam xG stats. 0.33? We have had several large chances

 

[SteveAWOL]

Daria Gavrilova,eat your heart out!! No Aussie is as good from behind as Postcoglou

 

[ricky2tricky4city]

[paxtonwolf]

[Legohamster]
