MrBlack Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Maybe it's 30m including add ons. So maybe if he scores 20, then 40 goals for us etc.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M_Afro Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Think we may go with a more narrow front 3 and look to bolster the midfield. 2 holders with Emi in a more advanced central role and a narrow front 3 of Ings, Ollie and Bailey! More width from our full backs. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Willard Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Ings will score 25 goals this season. He is SOOOOO clinical. He is England's best striker behind Kane. If he stays fit, oh **** Watkins steps in. Enjoy. Not sure how we are fitting all these players in. So we've signed 1 striker and 2 wingers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 I'd have been happy with Tammy but this is good too. If he gets double figures for a few seasons then £30m isn't bad value even if we can't sell him at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allani Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 2 minutes ago, The_Steve said: Dean’s comments are telling: it’s not just his goals, it’s his presence and professionalism off the pitch and in the dressing room, another leader and role model for the young players. It makes a lot of sense given the bond in the dressing room. You want the right attitude and talent around. Also 3 years gets us into the period when some of the stars from the academy should be (hopefully!) breaking into the first team squad. So I think it does fit with the longer term project too. My non-Villa supporting mates have really reacted to this signing as a sign of intent from the club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rino8 Posted August 4, 2021 Visiting Supporter Share Posted August 4, 2021 1 minute ago, MaVilla said: am i correct in my belief that Ings is a super hard working striker?, kind of in the mould of Watkins? (not as fast, i just mean in work rate) Im sure i heard he works his socks off. Southampton play an insane press. He's probably harder working. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 I'm not doubting Ings will score goals for us, he's very bloody good at it. This transfer is just very different to what our targeted philosophy is. Just a bit confusing. Anyway, excited to see him play. He's definitely a better fit for our system than say Tammy so that's a positive as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Mark Albrighton Posted August 4, 2021 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted August 4, 2021 Real sense of deja vu with this. When we sold Yorke I remember thinking why did we spend the money on a 29 year old Dublin and a 30 year old Merson. Turned out alright. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Interesting! I'll be honest, I'd have preferred Tammy, but Ings is a quality player, who scores goals. Welcome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tez500 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 £30m seems steep, would have stumped up the extra £10m for Tammy personally 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
