Solanke admits Tottenham ‘not quite clinical enough’ against Leicester
NEW signing Dominic Solanke acknowledged Tottenham were “not quite clinical enough” in the 1-1 draw at Leicester, but vowed they would put things right at the weekend when he makes his home debut.
Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou handed the £65 million forward a first start on Monday night and, despite an overall strong performance, Solanke squandered three chances, including a close-range first-half header.
A goal would have capped a fine debut, but Tottenham were punished for their profligacy in their Premier League opener when Jamie Vardy levelled in the 57th minute to cancel out Pedro Porro’s opener.
