25mil for Ings is crazy money given he only had 12 months of his contract to go and very injury prone.
We shouldn’t be buying a reserve striker at that price.

He’s a good signing for them, so is BuendiaHe will get goals, but he’s 29 and in 18 months we’ll have another old codger with dodgy knees that we can’t flog.
Let’s get some youngsters in and get back to pressing like maniacs.
"They sell Robbie Keane and [Dimitar] Berbatov because they want Bent to play, so they left us with Darren Bent and Frazier Campbell. Without strikers."It's still Levy that is pulling the strings and has the transfer budget, I'm sure Levy will sell if city do the right bid no matter what the date is.
Buendia is far and away the best signing Villa has made since getting back to the Premier League. No clue why we weren't all over that.
Good for you
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.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.
Nope.
They've certainly cemented their place in the Premier League. 8th-14th, solidly mid-table.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.
Watkins, Ings, Bailey and Buendia? Plenty of goals there
Son, Bergwijn, Lucas, Gil? Not happy at all
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.Ings might be 29 but he is a top premier league striker, it’s a great singing and IMO £25m is a reasonable price.
As things stand he said.
Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.Vlahovic Madueke Lacroix for Kane, and we finish top 4. Relax.
Really like Buendia.
You guys are mental if you think this hasn't been going on for 6-8 weeks.
1%* chance Villa finish above us.
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.
We can do better than Ings.
