Danny Ings

[3 Stacks]

£6.5m plus £1.5m in add-ons is probably very close to what we offered Burnley in the first place. They were the ones talking about a record compensation fee and all the stuff about witness statements, performance analysis and so on in the hope the fee might be north of £10m, which is what Spurs had offered before his contract at Burnley expired. Apparently Burnley will also be entitled to 20% of the profit from any sale. I don't know if that is profit based on book value after depreciation or profit over and above the fee we paid Burnley.

 

I think it's 20% of the profit over the fee we would get so for example, if we sell him for 10mill, Burnley would pocket 400,000 pounds

 

(0.2* 2 000 000).

Due back in training next week apparently.

[ZonkoVille77]

That's a decent price

[Section_31]

Amazing, never known a club as bad as us at this shit, we make Peter Ridsdale look like Gordon Gecko.

[Russ Atmosphere]

Bit of a crock, but should be good enough for a squad role.

 

Job done by FSG, as he'll no doubt turn a profit when the time comes.

[Arl arse]

I like the lad, full of hard work and effort.

[Tony Moanero]

£8.5M.

 

That's my guess. Anyone else want to have a go, for forum bragging rights?

£325m and a packet of stale Pickled Onion Monster Munch

The committee have played a blinder here

The committee have given away the magic beans.

I love Ings. Seems a proper sound lad and was unlucky here. Was sad we let him go - think he is superior player to Big Div, but the gods may not have shone on him the way they have for Origi with his big goals in big games. Who knows?

[Creator Supreme]

Glad he's doing well, seems a sound lad, good player, would have liked to have seen him get some sort of winners medal when he was here but not to be! Klopp seemed to have a lot of time for him too!

He’s just on FOotball Focus. He always comes across really well. Gutted it didn’t work out for him.

Yeah was a shame but that’s where my sympathy ends...

Proving he's a good scorer again!

[Bjornebye]

I like him. Shame he's playing for them fucking scummer in-bred mutant twats. 

 

I'd have him back over Origi but rightly he wouldn't want to be a bench player.

You reeking Skate you. 

[Guest Alex_K]

Deserves every success that comes his way. Given the ephemeral nature of a footballer's career, can only imagine the stress of being injured & watching peak years slip by. Deserves great praise for pulling himself back to a really high level of play.

Even footballers with a midgets face on a regular sized body can pull unbelievable women.

I think he could definitely challenge Bobby for the no 9 spot. He is as good at pressing and what he lacks in guile he more than makes up with goals.

Apart from us not playing with a number nine you're spot on as usual.

He has never had that type of skill. He's at his level at Southampton.

Disagree entirely. Without the ACL injury he would have been used regularly in this klopp team. Perfect alternative for Bobby, or even in the wider roles. 25 in 42 for a mid table team last season suggests his skill level is somewhere above your modest opinions of him.

Well Id say it's more that Southampton play to his strengths but I know what you mean.

 

That said and despite his scoring record, Id see him opting to go elsewhere if he decided to move on. The chances of him coming back to Liverpool after the bad luck with injuries he had is nil in my opinion.

How is an out and out forward a perfect alternative for Bobby?   Doesn't matter a jot how many he scores, we don't play with a player like that and haven't for years. 

 

Both mane and salah play ahead of Bobby.   It's downright strange that Liverpool fans still act like he's a centre forward.   I expect it from rival fans cause they see the number on his back and how sky sports show our line up but people watching for years should know better.

Ings is in the best place he could be - a side where he is one of the first teams on the sheet and they set up to let him sniff around the area for chances -  and his performances show that.
