Klopp very politely telling Danny Ings to bugger off somewhere and get games. Nobody has our number 9 shirt yet.

I think he would be ideal.  Whilst not lightening quick he is a right pest and constantly on the move.

There's still places to fill on our bench. Why not?

How about a £8-10 million offer for Connor Wickham then

Great idea - so long as it's not from us.
Woeful player with the sort of attitude that would see him join Gabby's gang.

Didn't know who is off pitch antics ! Ahhh no wonder hasn't amount to much ! Good Intel! Yeah I don't want any more of those types. Do you like Walters - a tough competitor!  Or Nugent -champ skills and know how. I can't think anymore experience strikers from prem league who could come

No and no. It's not about being experienced or not, it's about being the type of player we need.  We need pace the only one of our attackers with any pace (assuming Gabby and Adama are out) is Ayew and even then he's not much quicker than your average professional, Rudy, Jack and RM are all slow and that lack of pace makes us predictable.   RHM and Green are both pretty quick but they're too inexperienced for us to rely on them to change the game like that.  We need a quick striker who likes the ball into feet or on the floor into the channels and we need another winger.

Someone suggested Danny ings.  Is that a good compromise. I agree with pace and your response makes sense upon reflection ! What do you maje of ings for your criteria

Truth be told I thought ings was pretty pacey like weimann or something.

Jay Rodriguez Southampton.
He's great at diving for penalties in the Holte End 18 yard area. Still can't forgive that.

Hasn't he got an even worse scoring record than Agbonlahor over the last three seasons?

Is he the new Jozy Altidore?

I'd like Wells. Lots of pace which is what we need.

Ings would be superb, I think I said as much about 6-7 weeks ago on this thread.  He's not super fast but he's clever and times his runs well which more than makes up for it.  On top of that he can come deeper if needed (so could play with Gestede as well) and he's scored goals at every level he's played.  Even on loan until January he'd be a fantastic signing.

Can't forgive him for Bradford or Rodriguez for Saints.
 Only pure players who have not smithed us in the past. It's a short shortlist containing innocuous hotshots like Kevin Kyle.

Ings'd be great for a year - maybe a year is a lot of "game time".
