Id sell him It was a wild move to put another striker on 120k a week when we already had our club record signing playing there having just had a very good season. Especially as we only played one up top at the time and desperately needed players in other areas. Ings isn’t going anywhere. He’ll see out his contract here, and why wouldn’t he? He hit the jackpot when we came calling! Panic buy off the back of City’s interest in Grealish. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 £120k a week for the highest earner isn't that outlandish for a mid table PL team Our £120k a week highest earner being a rotational player whilst our first choice earns circa £75k a week is the problem 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah i think your right, although a club like leeds or rbifhton might be willing to match that and make him their no 1 striker. It seemed like a exciting signing at the time but has struggled here for whatever reason. I still dont think him and watkins play well together. They showed glimpses but that's all.

I would be happy to get someone like alexnader isak or correa who we were linked with months ago. Have good scoring records and younger than ings so room for development.

Vancvillan Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Three things: 1. I think he'll have a big season - by some accounts wasn't up to full fitness until March and still had more goals + assists than anyone else. 2. Even if he doesn't start, having Watkins run a defence ragged then being able to bring Ings on is a weapon we haven't had on the bench since... 3. This thread was on page 3, below Luis **** Suarez, which doesn't make sense in any universe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about Ings!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 It was a panic buy and he has never really fitted our system. I thought we had gone past buying players past their peak on big contracts. I hope he has a productive year but his stats suggest a decline in play and call me pessimistic but I think he will just be a back up option by the end of the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I swear everyone who underperforms for us gets labelled with the not fully fit excuse whether that's true or not. I see people saying that for Konsa to explain his underperformance when he was barely even injured before his season-ending injury.
