Maybe.
F.R. usually dishes out more information if there's something happening. Think Solanke is ok, if Ange wants him then fine. It's over what he's worth though, probably double.

It is another Sissoko type signing, not a bad player but by well over paying for him it stops us buying someone useful.

Not sure it’s great business even if we do sell Richy. Is he an upgrade? Not for me, Clive.
I'm actually intrigued by this one.
A lot of people would have us sign Gyokeres this summer but Solanke outscored him in the Championship and has performed very well in the PL, which obviously a fair bit of higher a standard than the Portuguese league - looking at his play/goals for Bournemouth I can see how he'd potentially suit an Ange team

I remember Liverpool fans being delirious when they mugged Bournemouth for £19m for, as they called him, 'So tossy'.

I’d take Gyokeres over him as he is physical specimen that bosses CBS
But solanke presses better than any striker so that’s a huge strength in Ange ball

He does improve us because it gives us 2 striking options now instead of just richy

You know when we put the ball in the box and constantly moan that there is no one there and no one is gambling? Well Solanke gets into those positions and takes those gambles. I’m not worried about how much someone costs, it isn’t my money, if he is the guy our coach and our scouts are saying will do the job, then i have faith in them.

That’s exactly it
He will work the box better than what we saw anyone do last season

Surprised people are so down on him, seems like whenever we get linked with an English player 70% of people are calling him trash. He has an all round game from what I've seen which Richarlison lacks. Would prefer Toney but much better Solanke than nothing.

Looke like we will be getting rinsed next
I get that but it’s a lot of money for him. We’ve overpaid for Richy and Johnson. 165m for them three ouch.

I think Gyokeres is partly potential, what can be of he steps up and develops further.
Agree with you that for now there's no real reason to think that Gyokeres would be significantly better than Solanke. Solanke doesn't have that "what may be" excitement as much.
Home grown, PL proven. Getting to his prime, good profile fit. A lot to like.
Gyokeres is the same age as Solanke?
