Adman Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Hopefully injuries largely behind him. Missed 11 games in 2 years according to that guardian article. Much better than greadlish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blunther Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 15 minutes ago, Denaldinho said: what the hell?! where does this come from? Ings is a natural born striker but what happens to Watkins? Logically if you look at it from a tactical pov bailey and Buendia will give him consistent assists either this is a master stroke signing or a big flop. It's a squad game these days. Go deep in the cups and were pushing 50 games without Europe. Watkins and to an extent Ings are versatile too. We all know how weak our bench looked last year, and how much we lacked when one or two first teamers were out. We can make effective subs, field a decent team in the cups, and really kick on. I'm really happy. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreveryoung Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Man City, Arsenal and Tottenham was interested in Ings. Jack who??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was actually true... 30 million for a 29 year old injury prone striker when we could have had Tammy for a little more than that? If we sign Cantwell too, I'm going to have a stroke... Ohhhh a stroke you say… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No player should be guaranteed a starting place really. Okay there's always going to be key personnel, but we need options and competition. Not just for injuries, but for tactic changes and form too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might keep Watkins out of the side if he’s scoring regularly. Both players are going to have to be on the top of their game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there's any chance that it will happen, we won't want him, and he won't want to join us, the 29 year old will probably end up at a top six club as a back up option, or maybe West Ham as they have European football. Biggest laugh I've had for a week mate. I love that you've owned yourself out which is the best part. I applaud you for that. I can just imagine you ranting away on your keyboard, pressed send, and then within the hour thinking WTF. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Sorry guys, this is too much ruthless ambition, I’d much rather we stick with Keinan ‘one goal’ Davis as the main striking option behind Ollie. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave-R Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 After watching some videos of him and Skills and running down the wing, I feel if Grealish goes Ings could be place in Jack's spot so Watkins can stay up front. I find it strange that those who denied Watkins out to the left even with Tammy as a possible signing that they are now up for it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKP90 Posted August 4, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted August 4, 2021 With Young we could go 352 with wingbacks, although i’d expect us to go for another CB if so. That could solve our DM problem too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being 29 isn't that big of a deal, plus he'll be another leader to the squad as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MachoFantastico Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Wait till he starts scoring and than the boo boys will be rethinking the Ings signing. The guy gets goals and is a wonderful alternative to relying on Ollie all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
