Dominic Solanke is enjoying playing alongside ‘elite’ Tottenham star
Dominic Solanke admits that he is particularly enjoying playing alongside one Tottenham star, who is every bit as good as he thought he would be.
Tottenham attackers yet to hit expected heights this season
Dominic Solanke has had a decent start to his time at Tottenham, with the striker particularly receiving a lot of praise for his contributions off the ball.
However, the centre-forward has not found the back of the net as often as he would have wanted, having scored just six times across all competitions so far, out of which only four have come in the Premier League.
To make matters worse for Ange Postecoglou‘s men, captain Heung-min Son has also not hit his usual heights, with just four goals to his name so far.
Dominic Solanke speaks on playing alongside Son
The Tottenham fans will be hoping that the Solanke-Son partnership, which has shown some promise at times, will deliver over the coming months.
The Englishman is certainly loving playing alongside the South Korean, admitting that the Tottenham captain’s attributes are ‘elite’.
When asked about playing with Son, Solanke told The Premier League’s official channel: “Yeah, incredible, it’s everything you see, to be honest. His talent, both feet, his confidence, dribbling ability there, his leadership, he has everything.
“It’s a joy to be around him and I’m looking forward to carrying on playing with him. His finishing is elite, so I think we’ll see more of these for sure.”
Tottenham desperately need a Son purple patch
Son tends to score most of his goals in patches rather than consistently throughout the season.
The 32-year-old will be disappointed with his own performances, but one should certainly not be writing off a player with his ability.
Tottenham certainly could use Son hitting one of his purple patches and going on an amazing run right about now as they look to climb out of midtable.
