Can anyone else see a resemblance between Diego Costa and Solanke or is it just me. There is something about the eyes and the stare!

Hopefully Solanke will be more successful than Costa and that's where the resemblance stops.

I see what you mean, but Diego is quite short and Dominic is so-lanky.

It's not often I post and first time posting on this page.
But the second part of the above post made me laugh

I understand you can dislike Costa and I dislike certain parts of his personality and how he acts, however how can you claim 2 prem titles in 3 years isn't successful? Yes he's not been the top scorer in the prem but his goals and all round contribution have helped Chelsea achieve what they have over the past 3 seasons.

I can see where your coming from, similar style of play in terms of how he holds the ball up, similar pace, stature and movement.

If Solanke replicates his goal record I'd be happy, just hope he foregoes the horrendous personality.

I don't think so. Costa looks like a pug. Solanke, not so much.

Solanke looks good for his age. Good first touch and a strikers instinct! Firmino would have passed that ball without a doubt while Solanke took the chance! If he keeps the same progress he is third in the pecking order ahead of both Origi and Ings! Who knows a couple of goals and you could well see him play a lot more than what you have thought!

Yep. Good eyes lad.

Very similar. If I was Chelsea he would of been earmarked as a ready made replacement for me.

Big and strong but nimble quick feet. Strength and good running. Score all sorts of goals. Just a bit young. Got more confidence in him than any of our others though.

King Drogba. Actually I admire Costa's success. I'm hoping Solanke (and Liverpool) outshine it!

It's true though I can't stand the fella on the pitch.
