Ange must unleash “world-class” Spurs talent to make Solanke unplayable vs Ipswich

Tottenham Hotspur is set to host Ipswich Town this afternoon, eager to regain momentum after a narrow 3-2 Europa League defeat to Galatasaray on Thursday.

Despite goals from young talent Will Lankshear and record-signing Dominic Solanke, Spurs fell short in Turkey. Yet, their recent 4-1 Premier League win over Aston Villa provides optimism, with the team keen to secure back-to-back league victories and close in on a top-four spot.

Fans will be looking to Solanke to continue his strong goal-scoring form and drive Spurs towards another notable league win.

Solanke’s arrival this season came with high expectations due to his impressive 19-goal Premier League tally last year, which prompted Spurs to invest significantly.

The 27-year-old has not disappointed, netting six goals across all competitions, including four in eight league games. His standout performance in the 4-1 win over Aston Villa showcased his ability to capitalize in the final third.

Although he started from the bench against Galatasaray, Solanke managed to score a clever flick inside the box. As he aims to find the net for a third consecutive game today, Solanke will rely on strong midfield support—particularly from Dejan Kulusevski, who is expected to return to the starting lineup after being rested midweek.
