Mukasa shines but Solomon flops: How would YOU rate our summer signings so far? 💬

kyle.dimond22h ago

I think it’s probably hard to judge some of them given how bad the side was under Nuno so I still think some of these will come good. Mukasa is great though. A real shining light

shamanth.jayaram23h ago

Really like the look of Mukasa. Austbo looks really good from whatever I’ve seen. Majorly disappointed by Solomon though, thought he would fare so much better than he has

Arne Engels is a mystery. Superficially no better than JWP or Potts, but watch him closely and you see the value. Hardly ever gives the ball away, works hard in the press but must add goals to his game.

I think Engels was a victim of Nuno’s tactics to be honest. He’s best as a box-to-box midfielder, as we saw when he scored at Cardiff Played too deep under Nuno

Has created 26 chances. Is a regular starter. I think he is one of the best new signings.

Mukasa and Kante , both v good and some lovely technique but tend to fade after 70 minutes. Solomon and Ausbo both clever but lack real pace to get past any quick fullback. I’d forgotten about Boiro…. but if he’s not better than Scarles and Morato, he’s toast. Its a low LB bar this season, he be given a chance?

dantowen8195122h ago

Boiro is behind Mayers now too, so I wouldn’t hold out much hope for him. Apparently the other club who wanted him was Sabadell, in spains second division. A weird signing all round really

antonymmartin841d ago

Mukasa has been very good and Austbo impressive spurts. I have honestly been so underwhelmed by everyone else, especially Solomon

dantowen8195123h ago

Mukasa’s had a bit of a downturn recently - like all of them - but my god he’s got so much ability. You can see he worked with Pep

chillout23h ago

He has easily been the best of the new signings - 4 goals and an assist. Age is also on his side - I’m hoping for a lot more from him.

dantowen819511d ago

I’ve been so underwhelmed by Solomon. Just hasn’t got going at all. Austbo looks like decent value though, and the sort of rough diamond i expected from Koppen

chillout23h ago

He has scored two goals and got 2 assists. Created 28 chances. He offers pace and an attacking threat, but his lack of end product is an issue for me.

@dantowen81951 No wonder spurs got rid of him !
