I’m going to start to have to catch up on what’s going on. I don't think he rates their coach, plus the way Soton finished last season they'll be amongst the relegation spots for this one on form. I believe it's the reason why Bertrand jumped ship too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I got that one wrong. I thought he was like Ings and wasn't interested in signing another contract with the club. Seems an odd piece of business to let go of your starting left back if it was Soton's choice, but I guess that's the post-covid landscape we live in.

It could be that’s how it was, I just don’t remember hearing about them offering him a new deal. But, obviously, I wouldn’t be following their news all that much!

Shukes Posted January 4 Report Share Posted January 4 Said in the other thread. Watched him a few times this year and he has slowed down dramatically. Hasn't the energy these days. If we want him seriously though… we’ll get him. He’s only a sub for Villa most games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey Posted January 4 Report Share Posted January 4 As much as he would be an improvement, if we don't improve the quality of ball we play up to him, it will just be a waste of money. I imagine he is on pretty decent wages at Villa too which we will be expected to cough up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncanmckenzieismagic Posted January 5 Author Report Share Posted January 5 Personally I think he would instantly improve us, especially if played up top alongside DCL, and don’t think we are in any position to be turning our noses up at a player of his calibre StevO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuffRob Posted January 5 Report Share Posted January 5 It a transfer that simply highlights the predicament we are in. Its simply a firefighting or sticking plaster transfer that might be what is needed to give us a better chance of staying up. We don't have the luxury of just going for talented youngsters his window. We need somebody who is Premiership proven, will nick some goals and get us some points. Don't need to win every game as we are not at the business end of the table - its about scrapping out the bare minimum that keep us in the Premiership in this transfer window. A 3-4 Danny Ings goals might mean a additional 4-6 points, which could easily mean the difference between staying up or going down. A fit Danny Ings does make us a better team squad, and to me he is the type of player you would be happy having in your corner in a dog fight. The massive question will be can he stay fit. A big element of the summers recruitment was bring in people who don't have a tendency of sitting on the treatment table (which I applauded and am behind), so this transfer, especially, if we are forced in to permanent deal, just shows the limitations of the reality of our limited ability in the market - idealistic transfer strategies will have to be compromised. I feel so sorry for the tools Lampard and Thelwall have to work with - everything they do transfer wise has to be a compromise at the moment, we have desperate needs but are currently the 'paupers' of the premier league in what we can actually spend. This is currently the toughest Premiership club to manage by some way. duncanmckenzieismagic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoo 2.0 Posted January 5 Report Share Posted January 5 Ings is quality, but he'd be a good signing as a backup to a fit DCL, Richarlison etc. I wouldn't want to pin our survival hopes on him. You just know we'll spunk about £35m on him and be moaning about him in four years time when he's sat on a £100,000 a week wage, in League One missing sitters against Forest Green.
