I presume this article is a wind up. Soldado is a decent finisher who relies on decent service - he is not getting this at spurs. He does not run around a lot and is not much of a physical presence.

Heskey "the balsa wood battering ram", is a terrible finisher, who runs arounds a lot with little purpose and virtually no end product.

Sounds like Townsend and Lennon to me

Doesn't score?

4 goals in 10 games say different.

I compare the Soldado situation with the Giroud situation in his first season. Soldado surely has to adapt to the PL League with bigger, stronger defenders against him. Spurs bought 8 new players all have to fit together. It takes time. Fans not being patient enough. The expectations are too high.

Soldado = Carroll

Carroll at Newcastle was decent, Llori

And at the end of his Liverpool time he played some good games as well.

Most of fans dislike these kind of strikers like Carroll, Giroud because they are not easy on the eye, hard workers....They didnt get that recognition they actually deserve.

What a muppet

Carroll cost 9m more than Soldado and is a completely different type of striker

"With all the hype surrounding the purchase of your £26 million striker that doesn't score"

No

His 126 league & 20 International goals suggest otherwise

Soldado Spurs record...

12 games. 6 goals.

= 1 in 2

posted on 12/11/13

Soldado scoring one goal in every 2 games over his career, compares very favourably with most of the top prem strikers over their careers. RVP hardly scored a goal when he first arrived at Arsenal. Don`t know what all the fuss is about. I will judge Soldado, like all the other new players at the end of the season, and not a game before.

Who are you referring to? (I dont happen to know Heskey's and Soldado's stats off the top of my head)

If it's soldado, I'm not saying he is bad at all, he just needs service. If it's heskey, well he just isnt a good finisher, I don't see how you can say anything to the contrary. Using his goals record is one thing, but his strike rate is poor, and I don't believe he has scored more than 10 senior england goals after a lot of appearances.

Next year we will win the league when Soldado scores 20 and all our new signings click.
