Hopefully Emery has better success with them. Maybe lyric was right () about us being low on funds but Emery wants to bring in some of his style of players now rather than the summer so we are selling probably our most saleable asset that isn’t Kamara, Luiz , Emi1 etc and then brings in a few younger guys that he can mould and work with (saw your posted tweet in transfer thread). We probably will spend bigger in the summer. Selling Ings now might help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are convincingly clear of the bottom of the pack. We probably only need 12/13 more points to stay up. If you look at the league table anyone above Forest is already safe.

Zhan_Zhuang Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 I'm conflicted on this... On one hand I like Ings but I've also never thought of him as the right fit for Villa. Trust in Mr. Emery and the process I guess, surely there is a replacement lined up. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O.k the guy has lost the art of scoring but he's someone you can sling a ball over the top for and he does have presence and can make it stick so he would be a good alternative for Ollie considering we lose ability to press that well when he isn't around. Wouldn't want Scamacca. I very much doubt that they would offer us either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 I’m sure he was quicker and more mobile at Southampton. Do you think injuries over the years are catching up with him or something? Just doesn’t seem to have that edge anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see this happening, he might not get 10 but he would be the difference between them going down and staying up (sadly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still puts the ball in the net though. If he goes to West Ham they’ll start getting 1-0 results and move away from the drop zone. That’s what Ings can offer. I’m not convinced we have a striker plan either… I reckon we’ll bring in another player, but don’t think it will be a striker for some reason.

What I can envisage in Villa fashion is he scores enough them this season, his goals keep them up…then he’s a bit part player next season but guess what, West Ham are good again. They motor past us and we’re left rueing the fact they didn’t go down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedClaretAndBlue Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 West Ham arent going down Ings or no Ings. They’ll get a new manager sooner or later who’ll get a lot more out of that squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should hang up on them, if that is their best offer. Double it, at the very least or someone else probably would. Let's go all Brentford on them about a potential fee.
