Personally Ings and bring in a more versatile striker that can play across the front 3 positions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 (edited) Jonathan David almost as an air of inevitability about it. Edited February 7, 2022 by useless 'Inevitability' probably a strong word, but I've a feeling he will be a target for us and would be quite perfect for Gerrard's system.

He was either a target in the summer, or we were offered the opportunity to sign him. I was messaged in the summer by a former OUFC colleague who now works for a European agency, that his current agency(who is relatively small time ) enlisted Wasserman to help with a transfer - around the time Johnathan David liked A social media post made about Kesler -Hayden whose agents are Wasserman. I don’t know if we stood any chance but know his name was under definite discussion. Edited February 7, 2022 by thabucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither, as much as I didn't want to sign Danny Ings as I feel he is the wrong type of player for our side he is a good striker and I fail to see how we are going to get someone to sign for us of equal or greater quality. I truly believe Ings was sold that Watkins will play as a wide forward for him to sign for us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, his output has never been as bad as the way Arsenal fans have talked about him. Also a pretty decent creator too so it's not like he's just a goal poacher. Would still be a poor signing though, likely wouldn't be a big improvement on our striking options, would likely require significant wages and is old.

I truly believe Ings was sold that Watkins will play as a wide forward for him to sign for us. I agree with this. They are both very expensive and good forwards. We are unlikely to improve on either considering other areas we want to strengthen. Ings needs to improve his work rate and Watkins needs to improve his finishing. They both need to get with the program. Our play style is now clear. We play with a rotating front three two of whom are number 10's. Neither like to play across the front of the pitch. Too bad, thats how we play. Get better. Yeah they signed for a different manager with a different play style, it happens, they both just need to deal with it.

Unfortunately, he’s not blessed with genuine athleticism like Vardy, Watkins and those types. He’s also not 23/24 so will have lost a yard over the years. I think he gives it his all but he’s never going to be chasing and harrying like Watkins, and probably isn’t going to be quick enough to get to balls over the top. He’s a good striker, but I can see him being moved on in the Summer. It’s a lot of wages to spend on a bench player.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Your Round Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Lacazette is just some standard lazy ‘jerknalism’. There’s no way we’d be looking to replace either Watkins or Ings with that waste of space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
