The 28-year-old has also been scouted by Juventus, Tottenham and West Ham. (Sky Sports)Looking at this with my Villa glasses off, and assuming the player had comparable offers from certainly Juventus and Tottenham, why would he choose to come to us given the clubs positions in their respective leagues?Offer of first team football?

It's probably not Ings' fault he's had 2 managers at Villa who haven't a clue how to use him.

Both managers have tried on a pretty consistent basis to shoehorn both into the side and it hasn't worked.

It doesn't matter what the formation is, Ings has had really good chances and has made an absolute pigs ear of all of them.

In another system, suited to the players he has at his disposal, they would put all those chances away with aplomb. Tactics, innit.
