Liverpool fans hail Solanke after first goal for club

It would be fair to say that the majority of Liverpool supporters were not overwhelmed by the arrival of Dominic Solanke on a free transfer from Chelsea this summer.

Whilst Romelu Lukaku and Alexandre Lacazette were joining Manchester United and Arsenal respectively in big-money moves, Liverpool brought Solanke to Anfield following his release from Chelsea.

It seems that the Liverpool fans feel different about the 19-year-old at the moment, however, after he scored an excellent goal against fellow Premier League side Crystal Palace on Wednesday.

Liverpool are currently facing Palace in the semi-finals of the Premier League Asia Trophy, and the clash had been goalless until Solanke came up with a brilliant strike in the second period.

Solanke’s arrival at Anfield did not catch the attention of the majority of the supporters, but there is no question that the Englishman has a point to prove at Anfield, and Liverpool fans will be hoping to see more goals from the forward in the coming season.
