I watched all his goals from last season. It's mostly poaching. Couple of decent headers.

Less than thrilled. Hope he proves me wrong.

Our wide players smash a lot of low crosses into the box we havnt had really anyone to slot them home,maybe he might be the one

Movement and finishing might be all we need from our striker, and he may get to eat until he's had his fill.
Means we need more control in the middle. All the midfielders will need to step up. Here's hoping a second round of Ange preseason gets them there. Players who can execute the system might be better than new acquisitions in that regard.
Anyway, I've decided to be excited. What else can we do?

I believe we were 4th in the number of crosses we had into the box. Having someone able to steer them in will improve our goal & ultimately our win percentage.

Apparently he completed his medical and signed officially overnight so I suppose the official announcement will come at some point today.
I have to confess he's a player I never paid any attention to but he was supposedly Ange's primary transfer target so that's good enough for me. I'd better hit YouTube and catch up .. heh.

I've already said he gives me Darren Bent vibes, but if his numbers are anything close to what they were last season, he'll be worth more than what we spent on him. At the very least he's a lot better than nothing, which is what I thought we'd buy in that position this summer.

Why didn't we just get Toney? And my son will be passed. Huge Cherries fan and loves Solanke. I've been mocking him for 2 years and now he's at Spurs.

RE: Toney
i wonder how other players would react to bringing in a player who was banned for betting on games. Would they trust him. Or would they think every time he missed a goal it is because he has money on it.
Considering Ange wants a certain character, I can’t see us going anywhere need him.

I was just thinking this the other day, it would definitely make sense, because lots of teams near the top of the table could use a proper #9 yet there's been very little movement on him.

I dont think Richie offers much tbh. Definitely consider Solanke an upgrade. He can finish. The worry I have is out wide and the service in to him.
Sonny's 32, Kulo's limited with little pace and Brennan has pace but limited in his final ball. Alot will depend on Madders finding him which is a concern imo. Cos he can be brilliant but he can also go missing alot.
I'm feeling weird about this season. I'm not at all optimistic. And I'm usually upbeat and positive but I'm just not this summer.
Maybe it's years of Levy keeping his wallet closed and watching Arsenal get better and the manager be allowed to go out and the likes of Rice while we try and find bargains. Anyway, on we go.
That's my whinge done.

Good breakdown of Solanke's game from a mildly annoying nerd from FourFourTwo. Basically argues that he's a perfect fit:

Definitely! We saw in the pre-season games balls were arrowed across the 6 yard box and the likes of Johnson, Werner, even Sonny were caught on their heels.

I have a feeling, and I hope I'm right, Solanke will be a success at The Lane. Quoating Ange, he has had his problems, Chelsea, Liverpool at big clubs now he's got an opportunity to prove people wrong at another big club and theres no better motivation than that. Solanke will also be very aware that Richy is sitting on the bench waiting for his chance, So as long as the boy doesn't become a victim of trying to hard which will "tighten" him up, and just controls him self and his game, I think we will see plenty of goals and positive contributions.

Lankshear out for two weeks and Bentancur unlikely to feature although he’s recovered well from the concussion injury suffered on Monday

I just hope AP plays Kulu trough the middle and not Richy or Son.
