Rumours going around that danny ings been seen,
Well no one actually saw him last season so that's quite an achievement.
Harsh. Whilst he may not have been on the pitch for the majority of the season due to injury he does a fantastic job for Danny Ings Sport Disability Project, linked to Burnley FC in the Community, despite having left that club.

I think i'd rather have Heskey on loan than pay £20m for Hernandez.

I've not knowingly seen him play, but that's a monstrous amount of cash for someone who's had 1 good season at Championship level.

Whenever I see these sorts of deals being mooted I always end up thinking about Marcus Stewart.

Rumours going around that danny ings been seen, potential loan ? Wouldn't mind him, cant get on the Liverpool bench at the moment.

I think this rumour started when someone said they saw him walking around Villa park with 'Derek' from security

Time for bed I think chaps

Ings on loan would be my preference out of those linked. 

Spend some money on an attacking right sided forward.  Shame that Forest player left for Leipzig.  The rest can be spent in January when we know more about the (new) players.

Sunderland have failed in a bid to sign Danny Ings on loan; @LFC are not entertaining any enquiries for him. Story on @MailSport

And that Derek story sounded legit

On a more plausible link - how would we sort out Hernandez signing when he's in Uruguay?  Normally players physically go to the club they're joining don't they? I can't see him hot footing it over to Birmingham / London at a minute's notice?

He can do a medical in Uruguay (if he hasn't done one already!) & can sign without being at Bodymoor.  Sure a few deals last year were done on deadline day 'remotely'

I'm sure medicals can be done in other countries. Our guys would just fly to meet him. It's not impossible

I don't want Assombalonga purely for the reason that his name sounds like how commentators pronounced Gabby's name in his first season.

Well less than 48 hours to, how many more do we reckon then? I am going for a disappointing 2, neither being anywhere near what we wanted and some good old school hand wringing and doom mongering to be had.

I look forward to Thursday when I stop using my data allowance by constantly refreshing h&v, Twitter, newsnow et al.


Yeah me too! Why do we find it s compulsve to do it!?

Me as well. At 51 yrs old I should really know better

And me at 32!

And me at 55. In the words of the younger generation, I've rinsed my mobile data this month.
