Ings/Watkins is a difficult one.

Ollie misses a tonne of chances but brings so much more.

On the flip side, Ings is wasted as a lone striker 🤦🏿‍♂️

It isn't a difficult one. 

Ings lacks speed, strength and athleticism. He can't lead the line on his own.

Yeah I think Ings is a brilliant second striker but its just not that effective a tactic in todays game to play 2 up top. The late 90s early 00s was his era, he’d have set records then.

Depends how we play football, slow build up with lots of intricate 5 and 10 yard passes close control tight spaces etc etc then it's ings

50 yard hoofs from mcginn in the general direction of the striker then its Watkins

Gerrard has us doing the latter so it's watkins

Indeed.

Ings is a very intelligent footballer, and could floursh in the right system.

If we lose tonight do people actually think he will be sacked? Obviously he should be, but I do fear that we could lose and he'll still be here.

No, he won't. Unless it's a terrible manner loss.

I'm so unenthused this season. Combination of no flow to it and the awful football being served up to us. 

Hope we win but meh, whatever. 

Yep I’m in the meh crowd. All the enthusiasm from previous seasons has turned into a barely bothered about Villa now.
