Dominic Solanke makes bold declaration about Spurs trophy hopes

Spurs fans will love Dominic Solanke’s answer when asked if the Carabao Cup offers Tottenham their best chance of winning silverware this season.

One step closer to the elusive trophy

The win over Manchester City last week was not only huge for the morale of the players but was also a significant step towards Spurs’ ambitions of breaking their 16-year trophy drought.

Ange Postecoglou has boldly declared that he will have failed if he does not lead Tottenham to a trophy this season (Mirror). With his side now just one game away from a semi-final, he will be smelling a big opportunity.

Dominic Solanke’s confession

Solanke has now declared that he and his teammates are not focussing their efforts on any particular trophy, insisting that they want to go as far as possible in every competition. The centre-forward echoed his manager’s words, suggesting that they want to win every competition they are involved in.

When asked if the Carabao Cup represents Tottenham‘s best chance of winning silverware, Solanke told Sky Sports: “At a club like Tottenham, you want to aim to win everything, to be honest.

“Like you mention, staying in all the competitions as long as you can is key and that is what we want to do in all of them. Every competition is an opportunity for us to win.”

Ange Postecoglou has instilled the right mentality

A host of Spurs players this season have spoken publicly about the fact that the team’s ambition is to try to win every competition that they are in.

Some Tottenham fans would prefer to see the players not making these declarations and instead doing their talking on the pitch. However, establishing this kind of belief among the squad is the first step towards evolving into a top team and competing for the biggest trophies in the game.
