Feel like he would surely be too expensive. Would prefer Wout as he is good with his feet and his height is a built in plan B. Also he doesn't have Ings injury history.
Interestingly, I live in Southampton, which is full of Spurs fans. There are a fair number of Saints fans but they're easy to spot by the vacant stare and obvious discomfort when walking upright.Shit, if we signed Ings I don't think it'd be safe for me to leave my house. Andover is full of Saints fans.
I'm from the area as well, there are a few of us for sure!Interestingly, I live in Southampton, which is full of Spurs fans. There are a fair number of Saints fans but they're easy to spot by the vacant stare and obvious discomfort when walking upright.
Would not be happy with Ings. He really is not a £45-50m striker. Just because he's English doesn't mean we should pay a £20m premium for a pretty average striker.
Opinion: In agreement with most here - Ings is a good player coming off a great season, but at the likely price and age I don’t think it makes sense.
I also think he doesn’t add anything “different” enough to make him an impact option for the squad. Personally I’d prefer someone who can offer us something a bit different up top as well for an impact sub.
We would have to pay massive fee for Southampton to be tempted imo, personally don’t think we should be spending £40-50m on him, he’s Good don’t get me wrong
Yea decent player but wouldn't be suited as a squad player and impact sub even though he's so good he would certainly mean we'd play with 2 up top in a number of games so he'd get decent game time just not the regular week in week out 90 mins he needs.I can't shake the feeling Ings would flop playing in Mourinho's different system and playing second fiddle to Kane. If his confidence gets shot as a result we've very quickly got another Soldado situation on our hands.
What about when we wanted Schneiderlin and Rodriguez?Southampton are a selling club. Can't remember them standing firm over the sale of anybody. If the money's right, they'll let him go.
