Batman Posted 6 May, 2019 Share Posted 6 May, 2019 if any other club were signing ings for £20m on the back of the season he has, would we in anyway be jealous/envious? not one bit IMO Hopefully, a summer off and a good pre season will set him straight. But, he had that last summer, so...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 6 May, 2019 Share Posted 6 May, 2019 Not sure where the idea that pre-season will get him fit comes from. I’d get that if he was overweight and had poor stamina but we’re not talking about that kind of fitness. An injury prone player is unlikely to change because of a couple weeks running around a field in the Swiss Alps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qwertyell Posted 6 May, 2019 Share Posted 6 May, 2019 He's broken. The player he was and built his reputation as played on the shoulder of the last defender and ran in behind. Now his pace has gone, we're committing £20m on a player having to reinvent himself as a striker who comes deep to the ball, in spite of him having no track record of success whatsoever playing that way. Five goals from open play this season - the same as Shane Long FFS - is not an encouraging start: Jay Rodriguez managed that in his last season with us before we got rid of him because he, too, was a different animal after injury. If we were spending £20m on today's Long or Rodriguez, everyone would think we were mental. And yet here we are.

Ultimatt Posted 13 May, 2019 Share Posted 13 May, 2019 He started the season strong but a poor backend. 8 goals before Christmas and none since. Still our most lethal striker in terms of goals per minute. If he was £10m then I think we'd be unanimous here that it was a decent punt that hasn't fully worked out but that £20m record signing price tag puts some weight on his shoulders. Personally I'm happy to get behind him and give him another year to see if he regains that early season form.

Saint Garrett Posted 13 May, 2019 Share Posted 13 May, 2019 Ings has signed, happened last week assume it'll be announced soon. Signed last year I thought!? https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/16409919.southampton-sign-danny-ings-on-loan-from-liverpool-on-transfer-deadline-day/ Danny Ings has made an emotional homecoming after the Saints fan signed for the club he loves in a dramatic deadline day deal. The 26-year-old striker, who grew up playing football on Netley Recreation Ground, was a shock late signing for Saints. Indeed, the move came so late in the day that Saints had to submit a deal sheet to the Premier League to grant them a two-hour extension to the transfer window to get the deal done. Ings has joined from Liverpool on loan for the rest of the season ahead of a permanent switch next summer for a fee of £16m. Ings was born in Winchester and grew up in Netley dreaming of playing for Saints while kicking a ball with his dad on Netley Recreation Ground. While a pupil at Netley Abbey Primary School, he was rejected by Saints after being told he was too small. Ings was schooled at Hamble Community Sports College and a scholarship took him to Brockenhurst College after impressing in a trial for AFC Bournemouth in his last year at school. He went onto play for Cherries and Burnley, before joining Liverpool in 2015. His time there has been disrupted by injuries, which have limited him to 14 appearances in three seasons at Anfield. However, Mark Hughes sees him as the right man to add firepower to a Saints attack that has struggled for goals. Hughes said: Southampton manager Mark Hughes said: “There was significant competition for Danny, with a lot of clubs keen to complete a deal for him, so we’re clearly delighted that he chose to join us. “We have admired him for some time now, not only for his ability, but also his character and personality, which we feel will be an ideal fit in our dressing room. “He’s obviously a local boy, who gives us another excellent option up front. “He didn’t get to play as much as he would have liked at Liverpool, but he has been injury-free for some time now and has a real point to prove. “It’s a great boost for us on the eve of the season to bring another quality player into the squad, and we’re excited about what he can bring to the group.” Ings added: “When this football club came up, I had to take the opportunity to come home. It’s a fantastic football club who play great football and I’m just happy here. “You can tell that as a club it’s very, very organised. From the start, everyone I’ve met has been fantastic with me and shown me every single detail I need to know. The facilities are great and I can’t wait to get started.” It was otherwise a quiet deadline day for Saints, who didn’t lose anybody, despite rumblings that Fulham may make an irresistible offer for Matt Targett and James Ward-Prowse could move to Watford. Fraser Forster also remains at the club, but with the European window open until the end of the month it remains a possibility he could move abroad on loan if a suitable deal arises.

Noodles34 Posted 13 May, 2019 Share Posted 13 May, 2019 he signed last week, on that training day open house at SMS, he told my kid he'd signed earlier in the day. It was all dependent on us not getting relegated and him being available for a certain amount of games. Whether he made that number I do not know, but he may not of and we signed him anyway? However, put into perspective, Mane was £15m more, i wonder who got the better deal? Good work Mr Reed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benjii Posted 1 December, 2019 Share Posted 1 December, 2019 Player of the season by a distance so far. Averages fewer minutes per goal this season than Kane, Sterling, Mane, Rashford and Aubameyang. A compelling example of why signing experienced players is important to complement the "buy low, sell high" policy. If we'd made a similar signing at centre back we'd probably wondering how high we can finish, rather than if we are going to get relegated. Also seems like a decent bloke, and he's a mush, and he gave it to the Skates at the Fratton end. Top lad all round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
