“I think the international break will be the big decider and we have two weeks to push [Solanke] for the next steps. It is going forward. It was clear he was not ready before the international break. After is what we’re aiming for and you always want to get it right.”
“[He needs] sharpness because fitness wise he is fit to start and play, but to do it at the highest possible intensity throughout the 90 mins, I don’t think he is there yet. But I think it was a very promising game against Copenhagen and I think he is on the right track.
“I think he has a little bit, Solanke is also good to run in behind, but that pace to go on outside. I like his combination play, link-up play and I just think he’s a good player.”
“I think he is a fantastic finisher. His finishing is at a very high level and probably he needs what every player needs and to play games. That is the biggest thing and right now the competition is tough here. It’s difficult to give him four or five games in a row. It’s not impossible but it’s difficult. He needs to play games.”
