That's what I was hoping from Soldado to be honest. He had a great reputation in Spain and a lot of his goals were with 1 or 2 touches inside the box (all instincts without thinking too much on the ball). It has frustrated me these 2 past seasons that we haven't played to his strengths. We don't get the ball into the box quickly enough and it allows the opposition to get into position. A lot comes down to our slow and predictable wing play.
I think it's too late for Soldado now, 2 seasons and still not getting the job done. Plus we never look comfortable with 2 up front. In the summer I would be looking for 2 wide attackers, players who when the ball is on one wing the other wide attacker has the attacking instincts to join Kane in the box.
