Manor Solomon did score his fifth goal in a row last night (Monday), but Fulham lost 3:2 to Brentford. The Cottagers are winless in their last two league games and are out of Europe just before a game against Arsenal. The team itself is far from its best, but it’s hard to say the same about Solomon who is in great shape and scored 5 of his team’s last 7 goals.
In Solomon’s 75 minutes on the field, the team had one threat on goal, the Israeli’s own goal. Solomon struck completely free after a free kick and temporarily equalized, when he went down 2:1 to the quality Brentford. The world media, as expected, was enthusiastic about the Israeli this time as well.
“The hot Solomon temporarily equalized against the quality Brentford”, they wrote on NBC, while the “Daily Mail” complimented Solomon who played in the attacking trio alongside Willian and central striker Aleksandar Mitrovic who had not scored in the league since January 3. “Solomon, at the moment, is perhaps the best of the Fulham players,” it said.
“He is a goal machine who works hard in every game,” said the British media, referring to the fact that Solomon is the fourth to score 4 consecutive goals for Fulham in the Premier League: an impressive achievement considering the club’s history of swinging between the first two leagues. “At 1.67 m tall, it’s quite amazing that he scored, he is perhaps the shortest player to hit the net this season. Solomon is one of the ten shortest players to hit the net in the Premier League,” they continued in the Guardian.
Manor received the highest score of the Fulham players on the statistics website “Sofascore“, no less than 7.4, after completing two dribbles from 3 attempts, won 7 of 10 battles for the ball and completed 23 of 26 passes. Solomon played 75 minutes, more than any other game, and showed good tactical play in addition to the goal himself.
“Solomon scored in his first team game in the Premier League many minis, and was one of the changes in Fulham’s team. He was in the right place at the right time,” it was written in “Sky Sports” In which they emphasized that the only one in the top 5 leagues in Europe with a longer active streak than Solomon’s is Leo Messi, who scored in each of PSG’s last 5 games. Solomon received a score of 7 from Sky.
The interest that attracted Solomon led to that as well Fabrizio Romanoone of the most prominent transfer writers in the world, commented on the Israeli’s future: “Many clubs are following Solomon who will return to Shakhtar at the end of the season. He scored 5 goals in the last 5 games.”
In any case, Solomon and the Cottagers are currently preparing for the rest of the season and will meet the leader of the table, Arsenal, later this week for another London derby against one of the leading teams in the Premier League. The red-hot Solomon will try to get his team back on the winning track, knowing that a goal against Mikel Arteta’s Gunners will put them on the world map once more.
