HKP90 Posted August 10, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted August 10, 2021 Seems to be a lot of smoke around about DMs at the moment, which is good. I think the last few weeks has shown us that we will have no idea how close we are to a signing, or who the actual target is, but if it just gives a glimpse of where on the pitch we’re looking, i’m happy. If we can get a decent signing in the midfield it will be the buy of the window for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rumours of a player in a certain position, bam, signing of different player in same position. I hope so anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striker Posted August 10, 2021 Visiting Supporter Share Posted August 10, 2021 On the previously mooted signing of Tammy for me he misses too many chances while also being very arrogant on the pitch. Conversely Ings is deadly in front of goal and works for the team. Ings much better signing for me. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't we agree both are good? My only worry on Ings is his injury record but hopefully we can manage that. I’ll agree. They are both good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRO Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 12 hours ago, Vive_La_Villa said: I think he’s a wide forward similar to how Jack played. To be fair his numbers in seria a are 40 goal contributions in 123 games. So one every 3.07 games. Jacks premier league record is 34 goal contributions in 96 or games or one every 2.8 games. Not a massive amount of difference… according to wikipedia he has a 4.6: 1 goal ratio in Serie A.....not very impressive, but never seen him play, so can't really comment, I guess. 11 hours ago, JAMAICAN-VILLAN said: no more outs of that nature.....we need to keep him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it was lazy clickbait. Anyway Liverpool aren’t going to win anything, so I’m not sure why he’d want to move. It would be great if someone could call some of these publications out for blatant fabrication. Media (and the world) would be much better if total falsehoods were prosecuted.

I think with the salaries of the 4 we signed we're probably about net zero. But our owners have been developing us at a rate of maximum allowable ffp losses every season. It would be strange if they didn't do it again. Edited August 10, 2021 by MrBlack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highly unlikely we will struggle. We need to see how the pieces we have fit together - before adding more pieces. Difference in previous 2 seasons is we still have a squad that can hold its own in the prem - we don't need to spend to avoid relegation battle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of these Ligue 1 guys could be signed sealed and delivered on Friday morning and ready to play on Saturday afternoon if Ings and Axel are anything to go by. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
