Spurs player told he is too good for the Championship after just one game on loan

Former Leeds United manager Neil Redfearn believes that Manor Solomon is too good for the Championship, with the 59-year-old left mightily impressed by the on-loan Tottenham man’s debut.

Manor Solomon joins Leeds United on loan

Solomon might have hoped to impress Ange Postecoglou this summer after missing almost the whole of last season with an injury.

However, it was clear that chances at Spurs were going to prove few and far between for the attacker, with the Australian having an embarrassment of riches in the wide areas.

The Israel international thus decided to make a temporary move to Elland Road and he has made an impressive start to life at the Yorkshire club, announcing himself in fine fashion to the home fans on his debut against Hull City on Saturday.

Solomon is better than the Championship

Solomon was one of the best players on the pitch and he set up the opener for Daniel Farke’s men with a lovely jinking run followed by a cross which was turned in at the near post.

Following Leeds’ 2-0 win over the Tigers, Redfearn told BBC Radio Leeds: “I thought Manor Solomon was probably the man of the match.

“He has got a quality that’s better than this level, you can obviously say that. Initially, in the first 20 minutes, it was like tackling smoke and he was unplayable at times.”

Many might have been surprised by Solomon’s decision to step down the Championship but the move to Leeds works well on many levels for the winger.

Firstly, he is assured regular stars and will thus have a chance to prove his fitness. Secondly, he will be playing for a side which plays possession-based football and tends to dominate territorially, thus allowing the 25-year-old to showcase his qualities in the final third.
