OutByEaster? Posted January 22, 2023 Moderator Share Posted January 22, 2023 Everywhere Ings has been he's scored some goals. He's done, y'know...alright; but I'm not sure he's been loved anywhere, he's no teams hero. It's a strange career, he's a nice bloke and a good teammate by all accounts, but not the kind of player that seems to settle properly or seems to encourage a team to want to build around him. I dunno, he's a competent striker that can come up with a goal, but there seems to be a little something that's missing in terms of what he brings to a club. Perhaps he'll find that at West Ham, I wish him good luck anyway, but I have a feeling he'll score a few goals, do sort of okay and move on again without ever creating any sort of truly memorable period. What is it that the kids say, low key not main character vibes? Something like that anyway. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is it that the kids say, low key not main character vibes? Something like that anyway. You don't need to look far in the Villa folklore to find the same player. Ings I think is better and is the better link up player and showed a surprising good range of passing if he had time (ball to Bailey x2, ball to Cash against Leeds) - but Darren Bent always scored wherever he went...but just didn't provide much else. A catch-22 - everyone needs a goal but can you sacrifice someone in your XI in the modern game? I think if only Bent and Ings had been born 10 years earlier, they would've been incredibly expensive. But in the total football age that the high level teams play, unaffordable to have a striker who can't do the other parts of the game now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another reason to cut your assets while they still have some value! Most players depreciate hard once they're over 30 unless they've drank from the fountain of youth like Ashley Young.

The_Steve Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Tbf, most people who were against wanting him sold expressed so on that a replacement is found. I’m sure that will happen. I’m still very happy with the price we got for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Sad for Danny. I hope West Ham doesn't pip us to any striker deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Is there not a bit of an overration, I hope he's suffering no discomfort, but he's only out for a few weeks, he couldn't play for them this weekend in the FA Cup anway. I'm not even sure if theysig ned him as a starter, maybe more like a sub to get them a goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bannedfromHandV Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Remember when a thread was opened to question our entire transfer strategy after news broke of Ings leaving……….it’s almost as if there’s just occasionally an overreaction round these parts…….

useless Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Why are people reacting as if he out for the season, or months, he's out for a few weeks, footballers get injuries like that all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
