To answer your last question Stats aren’t good enough. Interesting had his best PL season under CH with five assists.
There seems to be almost a weekly Solly March thread debating his skill as a footballer, I’m not sure why the player needs this much attention are posters convincing themselves he’s great
Or going overboard because he’s from Sussex

Bloody hell Solly, your intermediary can't even spell your name correctly, or get your birthdate right, on his website. Are you sure you really want this bloke representing you?

I was given a ticking off a while back by another poster for suggesting lack of crowds may be behind him having found his best form consistently, I am hoping it isn't that though and Potters magic wand has given him his confidence on a consistent basis.

Clickbait headline.
Really no idea why one of our most adaptable players would feel undermined by the club signing a player in the position he has made his own last season.
All managers he has played under have used him in multiple positions.
More of a threat to Dan Burn's game time than Solly's IMO.

Strange if true that it’s only a 2 year deal. Especially amid reported interest from elsewhere.

Not seen such Bravery!
Very strange as Solly has 1 year left on his current deal and we have a further option on another year.
So not sure what the benefit of a 2 year deal really would be

A good player most certainly, but not sure l would call him "great". Does well for us, particularly in his new position of wing back, but for me flatters to decieve, and with a touch more confidence could do better on a more consistent basis, particularly when it comes to beating his full back and pinging in more crosses.
Even more strange as it goes completely against the clubs policy of protecting the yoof.
When he grows up, develops and matures he's going to be an impressive player.
It always amazes me how much he's grown at the start of each season.
Bless lil Solly.

Always had the look of a 6th form lad playing football for the school team.
That's the point we need to give him a chance he's only 19 or 20 years old, bless him.
Solly March
Last season prior to his injury was one of his best seasons in the PL IMO.
Hopefully he can get back to those levels again.

Apparently he was being considered by a few clubs last summer. West Ham I think was one.

Maybe there's an option in this new 2 year contract of a further year? Tied down until 2024 if so. They could have now inserted various other clauses that weren't deemed necessary before, so it's doubtful that the term of the contract is the only change.
His current weekly wage may have been well below others who have contributed less, so although there would be no contractual obligation to increase his money, doing so could be good management in order to keep him motivated & engaged.
Also, aren't players also able to buy out their contracts if they REALLY want out? If he's not on a great deal of money (relative to decent EPL footballers), with not so long left on his deal, it might make financial sense for him to do that if some other club taps him up and offers to double his money...
Ben White's rumoured £120k pw deal at Arsenal has probably set the tongues wagging in the squad!

Maybe a season's loan to North Horsham Cloggers FC would hold him in good stead, as long as it doesn't interfere with his GCSE's of course. Maybe he needs to check with his teacher.

Perfect summary of Solly. I think the confidence thing is of particular importance. This season is pivotal and we need to see him kick on.
