M_Afro Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Total waste of money. I was furious when we signed him and now we are stuck with him. I would take £2m in Jan if it just got him off the wage bill. Terrible investment from Lange and Purslow. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 He got into goal scoring positions but he has to put that header away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Inspiration Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 21 minutes ago, May-Z said: What Ings offers is getting shots on target at the goal. The play when Kepa pulled out three good saves was because Ings created movement and got a left foot shot away from a tight angle...whereas Watkins would still be trying to control the ball.

ozvilla28 Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Same old story every club he played at scored goals comes to us he looks lost no coincidence either. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hit the odd goal and nice pass but he's never come close to looking like the striker he did for Southampton. Get the feeling we'll have to loan him out next season, perhaps someone from abroad will take him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreveryoung Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Needs game time, I know he started today but no good bringing him on random expecting him to get a goal. Needs to start every game, get fully match fit, cannot be as bad as Ollie has been surely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheltenham_villa Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Just keep playing him, got in great positions today, will score goals. Just needs a run of games. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We sign a striker with a 1 in 2 rate over the previous two seasons for £20m when we only had Watkins and Davis and you were furious? Odd. What should we have done? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdman Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Needs a run in the team. Thought his movement and play around the box was decent....alot better than Ollie that's for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MWARLEY2 Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Ings has barely played in the last month. And then he gets a start. The guy is another that needs a run of games to get that sharpness he needs . Just like Buendia does. This all stems from Gerrards inability to know his best team. Kepa was brilliant but an Ings with more game time puts at least 1 away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinebro Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 I think Ings is a very specific striker that needs to play in a very specific formation and system in order to work. He cannot lead a line on his own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what we do to our strikers Saints plays 4-4-2 for a start which he is more suited to. This is why it was an odd signing. Doesn't suit us or the way we play.

The argument from the people who don’t understand football! You could put Haaland in our team and we wouldn’t score many more goals. We don’t create chances!
