Solomon Shines Despite West Ham's Draw, Earning High Marks
Israeli footballer Manor Solomon is in exceptional form, contributing significantly to West Ham United's recent performances. Although the team was held to a 2-2 draw against Millwall on Saturday, Solomon's assist for Konstantinos Mavropanos' goal helped West Ham come back from a double deficit to secure a point away from home. English journalist Tom Garrett praised Solomon, exclaiming, "Manor Solomon is not normal."
Solomon himself expressed disappointment with the team's initial performance, stating, "We opened very badly, we didn't do anything in principle, we were sloppy in attack and defense." He added that the team expected a difficult atmosphere but believed in their quality to come back. "We wanted the third goal too, but at least we got a point," he concluded, noting that even after a red card, he thought they might snatch a win on a counter-attack.
Media outlets recognized Solomon's impact. Sky Sports highlighted his assist, describing how he "got all the way to the byline on the right and crossed for Konstantinos Mavropanos to head home his fourth goal of the season." Despite this, his rating from WestHamZone was a modest 5. However, other platforms lauded his performance: Flashscore gave him West Ham's highest rating of 7.6, 365 awarded him a team-high 7.2, and SofaScore rated him 7.5, the second-best score on the team.
Solomon's recent contributions include a goal against Burnley in the Championship and a goal and assist against Wrexham in the previous round. In total, he has scored 2 goals and provided 2 assists in 707 minutes for West Ham, contributing to a goal every 176 minutes. In his last 180 minutes of play, his involvement in goals has increased to once every 60 minutes.
