Cornish Steve Posted January 23, 2021 Report Share Posted January 23, 2021 A proven striker, yes, but he'd be expensive and an injury risk. I'd rather see someone younger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiggytop Posted January 23, 2021 Report Share Posted January 23, 2021 Always poses a threat IMO but too injury prone, he will want big wages so can’t see it happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1982 Posted January 23, 2021 Report Share Posted January 23, 2021 He’s an absolute menace - I’d have him here in a heart beat on ability alone... but, as said, age + cost + injury record would all be factors. If we did sign him, he’d definitely improve us. I just think this has got Leicester written all over it. He’s the perfect replacement for Vardy and can play as a strike partnership.

Zoo 2.0 Posted January 23, 2021 Report Share Posted January 23, 2021 It probably won't happen, but City should take him and bin off Jesus. Ings is more than good enough for a Champions League side he just hasn't got the great injury record to back it up, if someone is happy with him as the 2nd striker then he's a great option - Leicester would be another team that I can see him playing for with Vardy coming to the end of his career. Wouldn't be surprised to see him return to Liverpool either, he was loved by Klopp and was only sold because he couldn't stay fit. As you'd gather from the above I'd snap your hand off for him, but it won't happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncanmckenzieismagic Posted January 23, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2021 I think people are making too much of his injury record , since he left The Shite he has been pretty much injury free apart from a hamstring problem 2 years ago https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/danny-ings/verletzungen/spieler/134294 I also don’t think his price would be as much as people seem to think given he will be into the last 12 months of his contract come the summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s played almost every game for Southampton since he’s gone there. Maybe he’s over the injuries he had earlier on. Id have him in a heartbeat, at 28 he’s in his prime, scored 36 goals in 75 league games for Southampton. He’d be a great option to have. The chance to play him and DCL together could be really interesting, can’t see many defenders fancying it. That said, I just don’t see us signing him.

Matt Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 Usually wouldn’t consider an ex-red but it’d be great if he came here and was a success. Certainly shown he has the quality. StevO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James injuries are nothing on Ings. I think ings spent a whole year out the sport. Before we signed James someone went through his injury record and it’s really not bad at all, just kinda a myth about him. Everyone misses a little time here and there.

Same was true of McCarthy - very few injuries before he signed for Everton. I don't understand your opinion of McCarthy. He was injured because (i) he was rushed back and (ii) he gave 110% when others appeared not to give a toss. StevO and Matt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
