Penalty blunder in draw Solanke generated three shots (one on goal) and created three chances in Saturday's 2-2 draw with Sheffield United.

Impact Solanke contributed his usual high work rate Saturday making breaking runs to create attacking opportunities. He missed a penalty when his left foot slipped under him to fire the ball way over the bar. Given his scoring success rate this year he is now heavily marked by defenders and this is impacting his effectiveness. It has been four EPL matches since his last goal or assist.

Not training Solanke isn't in training ahead of Saturday's clash with Sheffield United, according to manager Andoni Iraola."He's been playing through pain, sometimes its better, sometimes it's...

Impact Solanke has been playing, and starting, through this injury in recent weeks, so he should be available Saturday once more. If he's unable to go it would be Enes Unal in the starting XI. It seems as though this is an injury that will linger for the remainder of the season, so Solanke will be at least a minor doubt from here on out.

Only one on goal effort in victory Solanke had one shot (on goal) and one created a chance in Sunday's 2-0 win over Burnley.

His one on goal effort was an assertive strike that was denied only by sharp goalkeeping from James Trafford. He was subbed after 89 minutes. He has accrued two goals and two assists from his last six matches.

MRI comes back clear Solanke (knee) hasn't trained before Sunday's trip to Burnley, but his MRI came back clear, according to manager Andoni Iraola. "It's true he has pain in the knee, at least with th...

Impact Solanke will still be in doubt for Sunday's trip while he struggles with the knee injury. Barring a major turnaround it's not likely he returns to a full 90 role in the starting XI. Enes Unal got the start last time out with Solanke sidelined, and could be in line for his full Premier League debut if Solanke isn't ready to go.

Injury not serious Solanke (knee) could play against Burnley on Saturday, as his injury is not as bad as originally feared, according to Jack Rosser of The Sun.

Still this update is a positive one for Solanke, who is still third in the Premier League in goals. If Solanke can't go Saturday it would be either Enes Unal or Antoine Semenyo that leads the line.

Impact This doesn't sound overly serious for Solanke, but it's serious enough that he needed to get an MRI on his knee earlier in the week. The expectation is that he'll start and go 90 against Burnley on Sunday, but an update later in the week should have more info on that possibility.

The Cherries number nine has scored twice and created two assists from the last five outings.

Assist in loss at Fulham Solanke created an assist, placed five shots (none on goal) and created two chances in Saturday's 3-1 loss to Fulham. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 62nd minute.

Impact Solanke had three efforts blocked Saturday. He was unlucky not to get on the scoresheet when he met a corner kick and placed the ball over the crossbar. He did deliver the Cherries only goal assist, finished by Marcos Senesi. He has created two assists and found the net six times in the Cherries last eight games. He has a good chance of building on that form in Bournemouth's next at Newcastle. The Magpies have not kept a clean sheet in their last eight matches.
