Saint Charlie Posted 16 July, 2014 Share Posted 16 July, 2014 If we did sign him, does anyone see him being a starter? He isnt as versatile as Jay Rod, less suited to playing wide, so I would see its as he and Pellè competing for the main striker role myself. Good option to have.

Bearsy Posted 16 July, 2014 Share Posted 16 July, 2014 Rodriguez didn't score 21 Championship league goals in a season when he was 21 years old like Ings did last season. So on what is that "glance" based on? It may surprise you to learn, MLG, that when me & SB say we're scouting a player, we don't mean that we looked up his scoring records on wikipedia. We take into account the one game we saw him play for Burnley last season, some goals we saw on The Football League Show, that time we watched an England U21 game, the general appearance of his Herman Munster face & various other observations.

Saint Charlie Posted 16 July, 2014 Share Posted 16 July, 2014 Obviously nothing overly imminent. There is a 10min interview just recorded with him on the Burnley website. We are probably keen but any deal will take ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkSFC Posted 16 July, 2014 Share Posted 16 July, 2014 I think Ings would be good but we could do better.

ratio_decidendi Posted 16 July, 2014 Share Posted 16 July, 2014 As we're running a bit short on strikers this season, I wouldn't mind seeing Ings join Saints now. But, for some reason, I can't help but think 'why the big rush?'. The guy is just coming up to 22 and is on the final year of his contract. Why not wait until he's stayed in the Premier League for a year first and then move in on a free? Surely then the board can make a more accurate assessment as to whether he's Southampton/Premier League quality and it saves us money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkish Posted 16 July, 2014 Share Posted 16 July, 2014 I expect lobster lungs and crab kidneys are in meltdown in the Burnley web, slamming the board for running Burnley worse than the venkeys with the outrage that one or their key players has not only disgracefully been allowed to get into the last year of his contract but might be sold to a bigger club. They know something they do, it'll make all burnley fans toes curl and eyes water and theyll tell everyone all about it, just you wait and see.

Saint Charlie Posted 16 July, 2014 Share Posted 16 July, 2014 And you always look on the negative sign for saints. Not at all. Just saying he seems fairly happy and content. If he was close to a move then it would be a huge PR fail for him to have done that interview. Especially as he clearly works hard at portraying a good image. We may sign him, but won' t be in the next few days like some think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Restark19 Posted 16 July, 2014 Share Posted 16 July, 2014 If he's so happy at Burnley why hasn't he signed a new contract? I'd assume they've offered him one as he's clearly one of their best players.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angelman Posted 16 July, 2014 Share Posted 16 July, 2014 Eh? Would that be, Burnley selling him, rather than Ings wanting to leave, and indeed leaving next season for nothing.

But their PL safety would be worth way more than the fee we would give them. They may decide to cash in, up to us to make a good enough offer, but it doesn't seem like Burnley are trying to negotiate from what Ive read from them.

Saint Charlie Posted 16 July, 2014 Share Posted 16 July, 2014 That you are a miserable depressing git. HTH. So you reckon Burnley will sell their main striker whose goals might keep them in the PL for less than 8m? All Im saying is people seem to think this is a done deal because of a picture of a panda, when it appears not to be the case. Guan hasnt even said what has actually developed today, he just posted a picture of a red panda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
