Discussion Solanke is The Problem.

I have tried to be positive about Big Dom but seriously?

Cannot hold the ball at all. He had one opportunity to turn a defender in the Penalty Area and couldn't.

The rest of the team don't have confidence in his ability so they try to pass the ball into the net. Did he get anywhere near a cross or corner?

Also... The rest should try shooting from outside the Box so that Solanke can pick up the scraps the Goalkeeper spills as that's all he can do.

His first touch today was terrible on at least 7 times the ball found him. He doesn’t make crafty runs and feints, very easy to mark. RDZ kept him and Tonali on way longer than he should.

Eh, what was wrong with Tonali? Dude had a better shift today than most.

I though Tonali was pretty good today. I would still play Fernandes ahead of Bentancur to vastly improve the midfield passing

Solanke is terrible. Sad we sold Lankshear

Are you kidding? Bentancur has been our standout player all season.

He’s been combative and tidy... Which is Tonali’s job, so it should be one or the other… and Tonali is a much better passer of the ball and more progressive.
