Reckon this thread will end up like the Sturridge one in 13/14 season.

Or it could end up like the Borini one, with people going conveniently silent when their agenda doesn't play out as expected.

He's been urged to go on loan, not quite the same. Still, you can't make it up

They should of nicknamed him So-longy.

Can't help but think he and Ox made at the very best sideways moves. Both would have played more for us so far this season.

Not that I'd like to have either play large roles for us.

Has he scored for Liverpool yet? Or done anything for that matter?

No. He's made 16 appearances so far though, which is 16 more than he would have if he'd stayed.

And the same amount of meaningful contribution's.

Looks like this is what happened, solanke apparently being let out on loan by Liverpool after 0 appearances this season. 

On loan you say? I await the criticism that says Liverpool are killing football, buying success, never developing their own players and are a bunch of rent boys. 

I reckon I'll be waiting a while. 

Its a funny old world, Solanke is one of those strikers I think Sarri would have tried to use.

Hes going to Bournemouth for 20 mill !

Michael Edwards is really something.

Double standards from the media as usual. He leaves us to go to Liverpool because we won't give him a chance, aren't Liverpool amazing they are giving a young English player a chance...

He leaves Liverpool because he's barely played,aren't Liverpool amazing getting all that money for him.....no mention of him but getting game time.

The ego has landed....at his true level

Dom Solanke goes to Liverpool because they give youngsters a chance. First time in decades when Pool is close to a title they have absolutely no room for young players. Double standards. 

Apparently we agreed compensation outside of a tribunal with Liverpool when he moved, I wandered if their was a sell on clause and if we’re due a percentage of that £20mil?

I know they say £20m is nothing in today's game......but for somebody who has achieved nothing and has barely kicked a ball in top flight football, that is a ridiculous amount of money. 

If this was around 10 years ago, that would have still been around £10m, and even then that would have been seen as ridiculous.

Football is broken.

Apparently he’s got a hamstring injury and won’t play until Feburary.

Guardian reported that we are - but I haven’t seen any reported amount. 

Amusing snippet on BBC website this evening :

Dominic Solanke has netted only one goal in 57 Premier League appearances. As a Bournemouth player, he has failed to score from all 30 shot attempts.
