bedwetters.
 
We can do better than Ings.

I’m not really convinced Villa will be all that good. I like Buendia, but the rest are no great shakes.
I don't know if we will get a player in that is better than Ings right now, but we can certainly get a player that will be better than Ings in a year or two and who will be just entering their prime.

Regardless of what happens with Kane we need to be buying his replacement now.
 
Ings might be 29 but he is a top premier league striker, it’s a great singing and IMO £25m is a reasonable price.
 
It’s a very interesting team they’re building with the Grealish money. Not sure if it’s a good team, but it is interesting.
They've certainly cemented their place in the Premier League. 8th-14th, solidly mid-table.

The issue is that their entire attack ran through Grealish, so they are going to have to figure out what to do without him. Buendia is very good, though.

It's Soton covering their losses if they get relegated, which if they don't replace his 15-20 goals, they certainly will be. They basically couldn't sell him for less.

And is it £25m or £30m? I've seen both. I think it may be £30m just because Liverpool had a sell-on clause.

 
That's the way a deal should be done, no messing about.
You guys are mental if you think this hasn't been going on for 6-8 weeks.

Just because there aren't reports doesn't mean that Villa and Soton haven't been talking. Villa have known they were selling Grealish since before the Euros when they bought Buendia. Soton knew they had to either sell Ings now or lose him for nothing.
 
Keep our best player

And then? Even if he is committed we get 2 or 3 years then nothing. Kane was a once in a generation talent that will take a LOT of money to replace with anything close. If we keep him we end up with nothing. And with nothing we never get a replacement..
If we sell him now and find a 22-24 year old we could have 8-10 years more.
Kane at best is 3 years now.

The Kane situation is distracting us from the fact we're curently weaker than last season with no Toby or Bale. Right back still not solved, no back up striker even if Kane stays, Romero still not done so our centre backs are currently Sanchez, Rodon, Dier and Tanganga. 10 days until the season starts. Its not great.

Politicians tactics here. Divert attention from the real issues with a load of drama.

I bet we fail to do better than Ings
