Manor Solomon

[P.D.]

Pointless signing, feels like we only got him because he was available on a free. Not an awful player but was never going to get regular gametime.

Of course. Get him free. Pay him £1m wages. Sell him for £4m. It was pure financial

Ended up being pointless because he was injured almost all of the season.

A year later and we've been able to add other players that makes him less useful to us so we loan him out not getting any suitable bids to sell him.

Sounds like he's fudged Leeds off with all his IDF propaganda too

What's this based on?

You'd have got slated for saying this at the time with people saying you've judged it too soon and to give him time, but it has been exactly what it looked like it would be.

Added with the rumblings from Shaktar's chairman, the deal doesn't paint the club in a good light and it's not like we've even benefited from it. The saving grace is that it's not been a huge misplacement of funds a la GLC / Tanguy but still seems super odd - If Ivan had been fit Manor wouldn't have ever seen game time.

🚨MANOR SOLOMON UPDATE:

The move to Leeds United is not certain! Solomon has completed the medical tests but there are quite significant financial differences between the clubs. Talks continue between the parties.

The player's camp also does not rule out additional options… pic.twitter.com/Sw4gSnfE7d

I suspect he was on significantly more than £20k a week.

There have been some Leeds fan spouting off online TBF to GB

He should get some game time I'd imagine. Hopefully he can get through a tough season without getting injured.

 

[Yiddo]

If he doesn’t regularly start and isn’t one of the best players in the championship then he was never good enough for us.

 

[Gutter Boy]

Good riddance to the genocide sympathiser.

We should get him back*. Particularly in view of our current circumstances. He is really shining at Leeds!

* This will go down like a lead balloon in our house

 

[Baleforce]

Unsurprisingly smashing it down there.

Good luck to him.

Good luck to him.

Thought he looked decent for us before his injury, can take a while to get your confidence back after a fairly long time out. Decent loan for him, Leeds play good football....

 

[parklane1]

He only played in a handful of games for us so its hard to say what he could have done.
