Another lovely endorsement of Spurs social media, its a pit

He received the same at Leeds and Villarreal too

A couple of the YTrs have been massively over zealous.

What’s Solomon done to receive that abuse other than be Israeli?

It's much more than that. He's been a vocal apologist for the genocide. Posting repeatedly that Palestinians bomb their own hospitals and all that nonsense. He's not just kept his head down, he's been an active cheerleader for the genocide.

Even Sheffield United and Crystal Palace fans mobilised last summer to protest, simply because there were rumours they were interested in him

Social media doesn’t accurately reflect real life. Leeds is a fan group that booed the Ramadan breaks. Similarly, fan protests are often taken out of context, for example, our fans mobilised online against RDZ but in reality they represented a very small minority of the actual fan base.

I hope Solomun impresses and earns a spot in the squad - seeing GB having to keep up this level of virtue signalling throughout the season would be entertaining

In what passes as their brain they are the voice of millions.

Would you still listen to Eric Clapton after his black repatriation speech?

And it’s exacerbated because the likes of the BBC and Sky will start reporting on their protests.

This is funny, but I do agree with GB (may the diety help me),I wish the guy no harm, should not be at the club though.

Moore is 18, got a huge ceiling, and already made 12 EPL appearances. Solomon is 27, is technically quite limited, and only made 5 appearances. If we need a fill-in for 6 months to cover Odobert's injury, its a very easy call to make

Not if it costs Moore some really important development. Keeping him around as a 'fill-in' would be poor. He has the chance to develop into an excellent player, and he needs another really good loan for that.

'An active cheerleader for genocide'?
Where?

My primary reason for not listening much to Clapton is that I don't like him that much. His somewhat pathetic 'I'm with Enoch' era seemed to coincide with extreme alcohol and drug issues. I don't think Clapton is a racist. Do you listen to Bowie? He once rode through (Kings X I believe) simulating a Nazi rally (cocaine doubtless coarsing through his system). People do regrettable things. The real skill is to determine who is being stupid and who is actually the egregious action they demonstrated. If we reacted the way you're suggesting to every action, then no-one woud be allowed a mistake, no-one would be forgiven, and we'd all be stuck listening to Wet Wet Wet forever.

I watched the match, and he tried really hard and ran around alot so he got a run on the ball alot. He was playing in an attack full of kids, so he should look better than them, and also the opposition weren't very good to put it kindly.

But you could see that he's bang average in the way he contols and moves with the ball. I think he is probably a very high level championship wide player at best, or a very low level premier League player.

When Tel came on for last 30 minutes you could see the difference very clearly. I would have made Tel Motm in Auckland just for that cameo performance.

If Solomon is in the squad for the new season he'll be taking a place away from a youngster or a new purchase....we definitely need to sell him this summer or release him.

I think Tel is a really exciting prospect. Happy he had that last 30 or so yesterday and hope he get plenty of minutes this season.

I agree that Tel is a very exciting player. I also feel he will be an asset to Tottenham's forward group. Now his pathway is cloudy at the moment mostly because we just don't know exactly what the forward group will look like. If Tottenham stand pat, which I feel they will not , Tel will get a lot of opportunity to showoff his skills this up coming season. If they do add one of two forwards to the group his playing minutes could be effected , but I still see him getting plenty of playing time and producing when he is on the pitch.

His social media has had a scrub but post Oct 7 he was posting a lot of IDF propaganda. You can find more if your bothered to look. But for a period of time it was regular tweets and instagram posts that have since been removed.
